People are submitting AI-generated images to Shutterstock/Getty images. So what happens when next generation image AI scrapes these AI-generated images and learns from them?

- That's what DALL-E, Midjourney, etc are for. They're GANs. The current human input is forming a discriminitive library bank..garbage
- ..eventually the "writers" will not be necessary. The "A" in GAN stands for Adversarial. The whole point of the system is total automation.garbage

- garbage, I get the idea. but what do they need the human input for? they can feed the machine with art history / reviews already.uan

Robot learns how to walk directly in the physical world without simulators using the Dreamer algorithm to continuously learn a world model and plan inside of it.
Learning to walk from scratch took it 1 hour.

curious for anyone who has access to Dall-e, I made this in Dall-e-mini which is nowhere near as good but just wanted to see how well it does logos.
logo for athletic brand named gazelle
can someone try the same with the full Dall-e?

- lol I know palimpsest, I was like I didn't actually make anything but couldn't be bothered to think of another verb_niko
- also just to be clear I don't have a client named gazelle just wondering what the capabilities are, but I'd imagine that if Dall-e can churn out a dozen decent_niko
- concepts, why not vectorize those moos, present to client and $$$$$ lol_niko
- Paul Rand would be offendedgrafician
- There needs to be actual thought behind logo design.jagara
- Paul Rand is deadimbecile
- Jaguars yeah typically but how many logos out there have any thought out into them most are just aesthetically pleasing clones of thousands of other logos._niko
- If ai can churn out a nice aesthetically pleasing logo you can assign meaning after the fact. You can even add golden ratio circles all over the place lol_niko

Here we go...
"MOSCOW, June 26, 2020, 00:00
A Russian design studio has developed an AI designer and, for over a year, have been passing it off as a human. To date, the network has been used successfully in over 20 of the studio’s commercial projects.
Art. Lebedev Studio has come up with an AI genuinely capable of handling complex creative tasks, such as generating completely original logos and creating brand identities based on them.
The project was developed in complete secrecy by an isolated team at the Studio. In the name of conspiracy, the AI was introduced as a remote employee with his own profile, portfolio, and name — Nikolay Ironov. This meant the team could manage any risk of leaks, while also gathering valuable feedback from clients on Nikolay Ironov’s work — free from any prejudice against generative design.
The results exceeded all expectations. Over the last 12 months, Ironov has developed logos for real clients (cafes, bars, influencers, apps and consumer goods)."

And "his" "portfolio" https://www.artlebedev.ru/nikola…
- AHAHAHAHAsted
- i was thining 'Art.Lebedev?' Smells like bullshit then.
Then I saw the work, hahaNairn - For comparison, see some pretty original and good design in this portfolio: https://www.kevinhoe…grafician
- To my eye his portfolio looks done by a human. Art.Leb are able to get away with that shit because of their name, and I assume - human-made mockupsNairn
- Some of the end product actually looks pretty good - but the most stuff does when rendered out of 6" cut and bent perspex..Nairn
- Yeah they're good with mockups.grafician
- Isnt that the same studio that put little tiny screens on the top of keyboard keys?cannonball1978
- That's the one. They did do it in the end, but a long time after and not anywehre near as well as first suggested. And ridiculously expensive.Nairn
- I imagine that tech's a lot more doable now. I'd not be too surprised if Apple tried it out sometime. Perhaps even just a B&W eInk layer.Nairn

@imbecile
I agree with you that as long as you understand the limitations they are useful for brainstorming, summarizing info etc. But the question was can we get it to solve climate change...no you can't. It has nothing to do with laziness and is more about the expectation of what these AIs can do at this point.
If we were really close to AGI it's not unreasonable that you could ask it a difficult question like "how do we solve climate change" and get a response that actually offered some new ideas and wasn't just a summary of already available information from the internet.
Many people who should know better are hyping this idea of "artificial general intelligence." Elon Musk said that by the end of this year there will be an AI smarter than any human on Earth. You can dismiss that as yet another dumb thing he said but AI companies themselves like OpenAI and Anthropic are participating in the hype to some extent.
- you guys are reasoning with AI generated posts? :Dsted
- simulating the outcome of possible solutions, is where AI gets useful regard climate change.sted
- i said " up to humans to implement" in my reply. obviously humans are the issue. blaming the machine is deflecting.imbecile
- Right but hopefully there will be breakthroughs in energy technology as people focus on the problem, as more funding happens.yuekit
- AI could help with solving specific problems just like it did with the protein folding thing I posted above. But notice how this is almost analogous toyuekit

This story looks suspiciously like some PR damage control they rushed out to make people forget the shitshow of firing the CEO and then being forced to bring him back. It's wild how the media takes it totally at face value.
AI is one of those topics where it's complex enough that you can easily fool people. The people involved in it seem to have successfully seeded the narrative that AI is so powerful it could wipe out humanity -- even though all we have now are chatbots -- and that we're really close to achieving "AGI", like maybe it'll happen next weekend or something.
I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually find out many of these AI Safety groups are funded by the companies themselves.

Here is an idea:
An that AI generates real time depth map for a movie on Netflix for your Vision Pro (or any VR/AR headset with proper quality) and renders it back on-screen as pseudo 3D.
The tools to build something like this are available online :)

A local TV broadcaster in Russia’s southern Stavropol Region has unveiled an artificial weather presenter, which has been created with the help of several neural networks.
The channel said it was controlled by neural networks, with “one responsible for the virtual presenter, another for preparing the text, and the third for generating graphic content.”

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
