Doesn't matter what you want. AI is going to do everything that humans do, and probably better, faster and cheaper.

- lionkor 1y agoBut that's a senseless endeavour. We create art not for money, but for fun and expression.
- Legend2440 1y agoStill welcome to do so. Pottery remains a very popular hobby despite the fact that you can buy factory-made cookware.
- bufferoverflow 1y agoYou forgot the most important and most common use of art: viewing and listening. AI can already produce good music, good images. At least I found some that I liked. And AI doesn't stop you from making art and having fun doing so.
- eloisius 1y agoThe entire point of art is about human experience. If we’re really going to automate humans out of art (I don’t believe we will), and you really just want to look at some AI pictures that you like, why stop there? Why don’t we just go straight to the brain stem and have AI-administered doses of dopamine?

- bufferoverflow 1y agoThat's not the entire point of art. There are many points of art: inspiration, expression, fun, interior design, exterior design, etc. AI can create art that covers all of the above, except maybe expression.
- eloisius 1y agoInterior and exterior design are applications of art/design, not reasons. The other three things are human experiences. I’m not saying a human cannot create art using gen AI. In fact, whoever thought of making Gemini generate a “17th century British monarch eating watermelon” created a piece of art as provocative commentary on gen AI itself. But if we remove the artists and just have machines churning out materials to consume, maybe based on some signal of consumer preferences, I do not believe that is art. What fun, inspiration, or expression would be enjoyed by either creator or consumer?
- Griffinsauce 1y agoEven "better" is a wild statement about art in general. A gigantic part of art is the expression itself.. exactly what this takes away.
