Artists struggle with AI mimicking their style

“Hello! Art newbie here with a small fun challenge. I started drawing as a protest to the current AI trend (and obviously because I enjoy art itself) and thought I might do a fun challenge out of it and share it here. This Image was my first attempt to draw a face but I gave up on it afterwards. I recently found it again and thought of a fun challenge. Regardless of where you are on your art Journey I would like to see how you would integrate/finish it in your unique style. Want to make a magical”

“I see videos about AI stealing comedians' jokes. The AI videos are terrible, but get more views and clicks than the small time comedians get in their videos. Maybe I'm being paranoid but I'm worried if I take photos of my kid's artwork and save it to Google photos or share on Whatsapp, then AI will steal it for their own videos or whatever. My kid wants to publish a book one day. What kind of world are we living in 😑 submitted by /u/Accurate-Flow8078 [link] [co”

“Having seen some really ugly AI animations end up as TV commercials, i honestly don't think people are finding the look of AI appealing. Do you see people leaning more on AI for making creatives or are they starting to go back to hand made creatives? submitted by /u/TheKindlyPoltergeist [link] [comments]”

“Lmao at some point that's been said about everything that AI know excels at”

“Read Now: "You may forget art, but the artist in you will never forget you" submitted by /u/Quiet_Cover_1079 [link] [comments]”

“Again, that is not what either sales pitch was nor long term vision. It was sold LITERALLY with "hahahha artists are useless now, AI will replace them'.And quite a few on HN run that talking point too.> Was it not marketed as a tool which enabled people to do more?Oddly, no. I remeber it, because I found it weird. I found the open hostility toward creatives very noticeable. The way this campaign came across made me reject the "refuse to engage with modernity" style of arguments. If you run aroun”

“Seb is my favourite artist. I hope he gets through this and everything turns out. This shitty ai system is so ass dude… submitted by /u/BuffaloRich9305 [link] [comments]”

“I think people should be transparent when they generate images. Some people want to deceive, but I don't blame the tool. I am an artist, and I draw everything myself. I don't hate AI—I think that no matter what happens with it, people will keep creating. Drawing is fun, and so is thinking for yourself. Right now, I'm using AI to translate what I wrote so it reads more clearly. I suppose if I knew how to write in English, it would sound more natural and better. I believe people can us”

“I have artist friends - asking AI to draw something similar to subjects they've drawn ends up making, line for line, the exact image they created, hallucinated alongside a couple others. They spent decades getting good at their craft. They spent so many years getting paying patrons and customers to commission them.You'll never agree but I think you underestimate how many people consider all that the AI companies have done to be the wealthy stealing and selling things back.> nor are the people in”

“Hi all! I previously worked in animation, and have found the last few years to be miserable in lack of job opportunities. Sadly the effects of generative AI are being felt across many areas of animation production, from tv shows to films, and video games as well. I hate to be doomer about it, but the appearance of AI generated content frustratingly persists everywhere I look. A few former classmates and coworkers have gone back to school (one became a school teacher, two went into trades) and se”

“I mean the effect of AI on the art world is no secret. Its super sad to see artists having to prove that they themselves created a piece of art, because everyone is so suspicious and distrusting. It sucks so many people are losing their jobs because more and more business choose to AI generate their logos and posters. From what I saw in the art community though, people do their best to stay away from any business that uses AI for self promotion. I am sure its affecting the livelihood of many art”

“Hi, Would it be possible to add some kind of detection system to see AI artworks? I am generally quite against AI and find it lazy from producers to add AI slop artworks to tracks. Therefore I don’t want to support them by listening to their tracks. It’s possible because modern AI models use SynthID which are detectable with tools like OpenAI Verify or Gemini Verify. Maybe have a toggle to show a label on top of the track/artwork that it’s AI generated and one that skips/hides the songs automati”

“> surprise, it’s generative AI. The ongoing devaluation of the work of artists and makersWho themselves can use AI to make even more radical art with far less effort, but refuse to do so because of some kind of... I don't know, a mental block? Perhaps we need better AI-accelerated artist tooling instead of one-shot garbage.> Every programmer I know has basically gone insane over the last couple of yearsMeanwhile, I feel more enabled than in my entire 35+ year career programming. But I also never”

“Is it worth being a professional artist anymore? I'm a 446-subscriber digital artist building an art career one drawing at a time — and after a low-view tutorial and a comment saying "AI does it faster," I had to answer that honestly. #darkart #digitalart #clipstudiopaint #artcommentary #artistmotivation submitted by /u/JeffreyHuntArt [link] [comments]”

“I feel like artists can no longer be smug or feel special any longer and now they lash out at AI but artists to me are like cab drivers and AI is like Uber , cab drivers took advantage of customers till u er came along and now cabbies are uber drivers and getting paid an actual fair amount and can no longer take advantage of people . PS hahaha about time .. I love AI 🤖 submitted by /u/Substantial-Fall-630 [link] [comments]”

“Yup! And back when everything was hand drawn, there was a lot less crap in general. Then printing pictures came along, and printing became cheaper. Now, a single sentence prints you some art.”

“Yes but now all the mediocre artists cant get as many jobs. The DaVinci of the world's will be fine.”

“There was a massive official art contest for an outfit for them that had multiple people win a thousand dollars. hundreds of artists draw them as well and get commissioned for their work. The official channel has artists working for them too.”

“The movie "Singing in the rain" was about the job Apocalypse of sound technology that threw silent film actors and workers into the street, unemployed and hungry.All those silent film era jobs were lost to the "talkies".Hollywood not only survived, it expanded.It is a truism in Hollywood that people always see good movies in any economy. If the industry is contracting maybe they're making bad movies no one wants to see.AI won't change that at all.”

“its painfully ironic to have an AI generate an image of someone drawing. and then to say 'tech will give you free time to draw more'”

“Even if it's true, why don't you want that money be in dev's pockets instead of Sam Altman's?”

“lol okay bro. art isn't deterministic, and artist mash different mediums and styles together all the time. you'd clearly fail the A/B test as well. so much copium.”

“Unless you do everything by hand in house can you really be sure your commissioned art was not ai? Do you think anyone has ever unknowingly used ai assets? submitted by /u/wowasg [link] [comments]”

“Recently, I asked if anyone would be interested in a consultant to distinguish real from GenAI art and the resounding answer was "no". Someone did mention that it'd be good to help educate each other so I'd like to share this video by Brad Colbow that outlines a lot of what I often see. If you have any questions on anything he didn't cover, especially in regard to specific styles, I'll try my best to answer. submitted by /u/SamHunny [link] [comments]”

“I'm a game developer but I'm also an artist and it really bothers me how often I see things like, "I hired an artist but got scammed with AI." They may post their capsule online only to immediately be told everything obviously wrong with it. But what if a non-artist could catch signs of AI earlier? Identifying AI art isn't as simple as one or two tell-tale signs, it's an accumulation of reasonable doubt. Lawyers use logic to determine the likelihood of guilt, as an arti”

“Did people forget about photoshop? Everyone grew up with advertising that was altered. Make this person thinner, make skin smoother, change lighting etc. The burgers on McDonalds ads are made of plastic. Oh the horror.”

“This is the problem with the genAI image hysteria. As the models improve, it becomes a fake outrage, since the ability to distinguish human creations from AI becomes impossible.”

“Little late on this, but I think Scorcese is maybe the greatest living filmmaker and his opinions on using Ai for storyboarding is brilliant. And I love the transparency because A LOT of filmmakers/artists are using it in the same way, they're just not disclosing it publicly. Hopefully his opinions will help end the stigma around it submitted by /u/Specialist_Ad4073 [link] [comments]”

“Exactly, it is always embarrassing though when anyone tries to dictate what is art or what can be used as art or inspiration to make new art. Art os art to me if thr person who made it was inspired to make it. It is truly in the eye of the beholder.”

“Even producers who makes movies happen in the first place dont take credit from directors. Edit: Maybe Speilberg though.”
