An Argument Against AI Art

  • Summary

  • A few days ago, I found an acquaintance of mine trying to sell AI portraits of popular characters in baby form. His only challenge was plugging in specific descriptions of the images he wanted and a computer generated images for him to sell and increase his reach. Since seeing that one post, he's made several more and produced more "art" in a shorter period of time than most artists are able to do by hand. The worst part? His images would exist without stealing from living artists. Artists whose signatures are clearly visible through the program shoddily trying to reference the image.

    Stable Diffusion is amazing technology with a lot of benefits, but it's connected to much darker, more upsetting realities and it's my belief that the debate we have around it is a precursor to slowly but surely removing the human artist as a worker. Automation is helpful in many ways, but what happens to art when it has no soul?
