DinapixStudio Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 Yes, we pay a subscription to the AI, and the results are amazing, although it depends a lot of the prompts that you use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MmmMaarten Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 This is beautiful! <-- [edit now I know it's generated by AI] I regret and feel bad that I wrote this. Because it seems to be created by some AI system and I don't consider that 'own creation' for a 'Share your work' forum. I also don't think it's fair to creators, wether beginner, intermediate or advanced, who DO put effort in creating beautiful things themselves as a creator and take art seriously.

AI is not 'just another work tool'. And you seem to be perfectly aware about that too, because you didn't tell anything about it in your opening post. I agree with @N.P.M. in that regard.

Glennsart Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Well, don't I feel stupid. I certainly got sucked in, thinking that was something you (@DinapixStudio) created yourself. While the artwork is certainly impressive, I am definitely not impressed (at least, not in a good way) by you allowing me to think you created it by hand/stylus. My artwork may be less than great, but at least it's mine, generated from my mind, through my hand and onto the digital canvas via Affinity software. It's not generated by a series of commands via some AI software. AI art is coming for sure, but you need to state it was generated by AI up front, given the audience and the hosts of this forum. To not do so is disingenuous.

DinapixStudio Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 6 minutes ago, N.P.M. said: There's a saying; 'Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach’ Not necessarily true in a real sense, but a line of text will never be by any means creating art. I did put no effort in the next AI created images. And effort is the key phrase here. For everything you have know, even to put the prompts and create something better than the rest you have to know, we have been testing it and it is not so easy to do something coherent and good, also it always needs retouch some details We don't see AI as something bad, they can even serve as inspiration for a completely original work, or mix both images to create a better one.

DinapixStudio Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 3 minutes ago, N.P.M. said: Blablabla, I generated those images above in just 10 seconds,9 words = no effort, no skills involved, no art. What happens with AI now is the same thing that happened with painters when Photoshop arrived, they said that those who used it were not real artists, and now many traditional painters use digital as well as traditional. It's not just putting words, it's knowing what words and in what order to use them. Yes, it is true that it requires less effort than doing it from scratch, but it seems to us to be a good help tool and to save time in some cases.

If it only takes 10 seconds and 10 words, you can easily do this without copying or viewing other artist prompts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aammppaa Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 It would be interesting to see the original AI generated image. That way the work and skill you put into the retouching would be apparent, and it might help others see what is possible with AI and human interaction?

"Retouching" could be no more than hitting "auto contrast" or removing one small blemish; or it could mean doing a lot of work, resulting in making a major difference to the image!

We didn't keep the original image, as it was just a test, and we wanted to see how much the community liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did not make major changes, we corrected some buildings, we added windows, the sky that had many imperfections, color adjustments and we increased the size of the image, we did not do more because we wanted to see how the community reacted, since it is the first work we do with this technology PaulEC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
