I was commenting more on “your statement was poorly phrased and implied that you thought that art was inherently meaningless” lol

I was going over this a while back, there’s a lot more fine control in AI art than you think there is, and there are absolutely artists out there who have an artistic vision and use image generators as their medium to achieve that vision and communicate ideas

I wrote that response before I saw you say “yea I figured you were attacking the idea of it being absolute”

I thought it was pretty clearly talking about the art industry in comparison to other industries

And it was primarily about people treating the art industry as something spiritual/pseudo-religious which is super super I don’t agree with

I never found time to respond to you contemporaneously and then it felt weird to dig it back up so I apologize I never responded to you in kind, but this is hard to believe because each image starts from a field of noise and is fundamentally a denoising process. You sort of fundamentally cannot have that fine of control because from run to run it’s starting from an entirely distinct noise map. If you are getting minute changes from run to run, that likely means that the prompt is so specific that it’s essentially plagiarizing an existing work.

@Aleph Here’s the links I was showing of people making Thoughtful Art with AI - the first one is somebody who makes comics with a combination of Photoshop and AI generation, and the second one is somebody just making an image with pure AI, starting with a specific vision that takes them like an hour and half to get quite right.

Hearing people talk about this is a big part of what turned me on AI art Being Art, it’s not just a slot machine that you get images out of, there’s real ways you can finely control what you’re getting. Less so than normal art, it’s got fewer decisions per square cm, but it’s still got decisions.
