@tom_nick1 Exactly this. Writing inputs for AI art is like communicating in a foreign language. The number of revisions needed to create a masterpiece is astonishing and the difference between a good piece and a great piece my be a single word. Writing prompts for AI art is more art that science.
AI is great but it’s impossible without human input I think. The art is not just a pretty picture, it’s an idea behind it
We might see a great combination of human+AI art 🤔
@horovody Bulls eye - art will not be something we just consume, it will be something we take part in.
With the metaverse on the horizon (no pun intended) we will probably be "in" the movie or "in" the music video or "in" the painting.
Definitely this is possible, there are already studies on this , the general term is called codeart.
The creativity will come from how you design the AI.
I don't think anybody or anything is capable of creating art that is truly original or unique. Everything is ultimately a footnote to something else. I
Your last question in particular is interesting, because what is "truly original and unique"?
Is there anything original anymore? What's considered to be "unique"? Isn't everything an adaptation of something from the past? Isn't everything inspiration from something that was created before?
Artificial intelligence is using massive data sets (existing art and life) to create the prompt it thinks you want. It may be unique in that it made it, but it's no more unique if you or I tried to make it with our own vision/experience/interpretation of the prompt. So we go back to—what is "unique" when it comes to art? It's all subjective.
One of my favorite lyrics of all time:
"No idea's original, there's nothing new under the sun
It's never what you do, but how it's done"
