HumanArtists vs AI

Guillermo Del Toro has some strong views on AI Art. I explore what he says what he thinks, and what other artists think about AI, art, including Hayao Miyazaki and Dave McKean. We explore the history of technology and art and what the future might hold.

"I was either going to retire or respond." When artist Dave McKean (Sandman, Cages, Signal to Noise, Black Dog) realized what AI engines like Midjourney could do, it led to a prolonged panic attack. If an AI can create an unlimited number of quite sophisticated images from a few prompts what is the need for artists anymore? How does this change the landscape for illustration and how we see art and creativity? These are some of the questions McKean asks in his new book PROMPT: Conversations with Artificial Intelligence.

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?— Loish (@loishh) December 15, 2022

the whole point of this image is a joke that I'm not even entirely against AI, I think artists should just be compensated for the use of their work - we should have the option to give some sort of licensed pack of artwork to these companies at a fair rate w/limited use— Dave Rapoza (@DaveRapoza) December 14, 2022

1/ A reminder to Mr. Kelly (one of the founders of @wired), that a month ago he was explained in full detail how AI is harmful to artists+the public. Instead he ignored it all to continue the objectively untrue narrative that harm is imaginary. Read here:https://t.co/UbiBiNCavy https://t.co/TKFGwUFU4I— Karla Ortiz 🐀 (@kortizart) December 20, 2022

Keep in mind that so far all harms to human artists by AIs have been imaginary.— Kevin Kelly (@kevin2kelly) December 20, 2022

He @Kickstarter so you’re just gonna let a AI project that’s main premise is generating (potentially non consensual) porn and main sales pitch is that folks can steal from Greg Rutkowski? Or are you gonna do something to protect creators and the public?https://t.co/26nTl4dTNM— Karla Ortiz 🐀 (@kortizart) December 10, 2022
