New project, hired on the spot, impossible deadline, financially incentivized to deliver before deadline, name the private gallery space in SoHo, name the attached bar, design the logos, should have international brand appeal ie multiple locations.
Due to the timing of the project I started up a conversation with OpenAI Chatbot and have been trying to be conscientious of the usefulness of what the hell I'm doing - not using MY brain, but this other brain. You know what I mean.
As far as quantitative research - it's far more efficient than Google. "What art galleries are in close proximity of 123 Street," boom it spits out a list that can easily be copy and pasted in strategy report. "What are 50 of the rarest things on earth," presto.
But everything on the creative side has fallen short as I expected. As well researched/trained as the bot is, there is a very sophomoric, almost kitsch like, creative personality living inside the machine. I would even say that it's out of touch ironically.
It would be nice to have personality parameters to mess with so you can create a perspective.

Saw some generated images made for the boudoir industry. Insane high quality and details are top-notch, dammit.
- how many nipples tho?Nairn
- not enough :)sted
- well it's never enough.sted
- share and we'll be the judges ;)_niko
- Great for concepts. Thankfully, still have to take the pics of actual people to get paid.formed
- @_niko can't do. i will share the url when it's available.sted
- @formed it was just a few samples, there were pictures that were from a series which is quite difficult to produce. it's not at all like what I've seen so farsted
- @sted I've seen some amazing stuff, particularly from some great photogs. So far, it can't really be controlled...we'll see...formed
- You trying to put our Simon out of work, sted? Shame on you. I thought you were one of the good ones. :(Continuity
- ahahah not me! :Dsted

I would like to hear the opinion of those who believe that human input into AI is not work, and that the output is a product of the machine, not the human behind it.
I see using AI to create images as similar to using a camera. In both cases, you choose a subject, adjust settings: aperture and speed on one, prompt & variations on another. And finally, you "just" press a button and the machine "does all the work" for you.
I'm not talking about the quality of the output, or whether or not it's art. I'm talking about claiming ownership of the output and considering the thought you put into it as work. Not work in a professional sense, but the work of the human consciousness behind the output.
Is taking a picture with a camera or outputting an image with AI comparable?
Thanks for your input.- If you generate 1000 images and use your artistic taste to pick out 5 good ones, then I would consider it to be your product. Similar methods have existedbeforedrgs
- I wasn't even going that far. Pick a random cunt on the street give 1 of them a camera and the other an AI. Is 1 of them putting in more work than the other?palimpsest
- Can one of them claim the result more his own than the other?palimpsest
- Now let's spice things up a bit and add a third cunt to the mix. Let's give this fellow the noble paper and charcoal.palimpsest
- This new fellow might take a bit longer to produce something but I believe all 3 idiots are equally responsible for the shit they will produce, not the tools.palimpsest
- They are responsible for their shit only if: before creating art they wanted to convey something to the world, and the result matches their intention.drgs
- How much work they've put into it does not matter. No point in drawing, no point in taking photographs, no point in dancing if you have nothing to say with itdrgs
- Considering the camera isnt using 413 million image-text pairs as it's base training set I still believe dude with camera is still doing more work.jonny_quest_lives
- Guy with camera bends his knees or gets on his belly for a sweet photo... definitely doing more work. A bit of cardio if you go out with a camera.jonny_quest_lives
- What is the camera taking a picture of? Not something that already exists?palimpsest
- Is reality is made up of less than 413 million things?palimpsest
- If I throw my laptop on the floor and type with my tongue does AI become more work?palimpsest
- it is work. It's a ton of gruelling frustrating work. every time I try something it comes out like shit so kudos to those who have cracked the code._niko
- The whole argument is reductive in the end its about effort. If the midjourney user copied prompts selected the best of 4 options and posted it as creation I'djonny_quest_lives
- I'd say no effort if the user approached the tool with a concept before hand and refined it edited all outside of what was ai generated then there's a bit morjonny_quest_lives
- Then there's the messiness of who the models are trained and consent of the work in the datasetsjonny_quest_lives
- Digital cameras didn't destroy photography there is still a business model there. The same with AI. If anything Artists are better adapted to make it throughjonny_quest_lives
- this prompt craziness as they have the necessary skills to elevate what the machine puts out.jonny_quest_lives
- As for your comparison... If a photographer is going out to experience/explore the world and capture light on surface or human interaction on the streets.jonny_quest_lives
- I'd say the guy with camera is probably experiencing the world differently than the AI prompter and the work would be a reflection of that.jonny_quest_lives
- Art direction/photo editing is more comparable to AI prompting then photography...jonny_quest_lives
- Limited my comparison to single guy with camera... you add in human subjects. real world lighting/weather, permits if commercial shoot. Yeah guy with camera .jonny_quest_lives

1. Shock
How the hell did it do that?!2. Denial
But it’s basic! It can’t do anything meaningful. Oh wait...3. Anger
But I’m special and this is my job!4. Hope
AI is just a tool. I’m still special. It can’t do this aspect of my job.5. Ughhhh
It can do that now too?! My career is over.6. Decide to give up on job, watch youtube videos on meaning of life, research how to move to New Zealand and live off grid in a tiny home
7. Acceptance
My job will be different and I’ll learn great new skills8. Obsession

Durer is a platform that helps artists train AI to create images in their own style.
It's an exciting tool to explore new creative possibilities and expand your artistic vision.
- <<< this is where it's really going to be powerful + useful, and no make the artist redundant.shapesalad
- *not makeshapesalad
- Score: 3sted
- I wonder if they'll sell the models somehow.PhanLo
- A lot of trust in uploading your portfolio to them... read all the T&C's very carefully...shapesalad

I got a few remixes out.
I used an A.I to make the mastering and another one to extract voices from songs.
https://emastered.com
https://vocalremover.org/I also used Stablediffusion to generate a few prompt that i combined in PS for the cover art.
I had to try, but in the end I find it time consuming and super random.None of these could have been possible 4 years ago.
-Acapella are hard to find and MC out of my budget.
-Mastering is super expensive regarding the income generated by my music (close to zero)I went in the rabbit hole, it was a good exercice to try out those new tools.
I'm pretty happy with the final result.- Cool exercise. Ai and language models are good at figuring out the next word/note but not great at intention imoepic_rim

The Generative AI Race Has a Dirty Secret
Integrating large language models into search engines could mean a fivefold increase in computing power and huge carbon emissions.IN EARLY FEBRUARY, first Google, then Microsoft, announced major overhauls to their search engines. Both tech giants have spent big on building or buying generative AI tools, which use large language models to understand and respond to complex questions. Now they are trying to integrate them into search, hoping they’ll give users a richer, more accurate experience. The Chinese search company Baidu has announced it will follow suit.
But the excitement over these new tools could be concealing a dirty secret. The race to build high-performance, AI-powered search engines is likely to require a dramatic rise in computing power, and with it a massive increase in the amount of energy that tech companies require and the amount of carbon they emit.

- “The ‘authors’ we’ve banned,” Clarke told us, “have been very obviously submitting machine-generated text. Those works are formulaic and of poor quality.”jonny_quest_lives
- However, he also suspects there’s a tier above these already, not quite so obvious, but enough to raise suspicion.jonny_quest_lives
- yeah but YouTube bros told us this was a surefire way to become overnight millionaires!_niko
- “None are ever good enough to warrant spending more time on them"-Neil Clarkejonny_quest_lives
