Earlier you said that nobody makes this art. Funny how AI haters are often less coherent than the thing they hate.
AI worshipers can never decide whether the AI is making the image for them or if they're the ones making it. I'm saying they aren't. The presence of a prompter doesn't suddenly mean art is being made. It's just someone putting words into a box so they don't have to actually do anything difficult. My statement was perfectly coherent, you just want to misunderstand it because pretending it is incoherent makes it easier for you to dismiss it so you can start parroting the same points all AI bros use.
And what if the prompter is not creatively stunned? Same with artists, some are talented but most, well, aren’t.
Artists don't need to be "talented," you can practice and get better at art, it's a skill like any other that has to be developed regardless of natural talent. If a prompter isn't creatively stunted, why do they need an AI to do creative work for them? More importantly, why are you satisfied denying yourself the chance to improve and express yourself so a glorified denoiser can spurt out something barely satisfactory?
AI is a tool and will keep getting progressively better, fast. If you made a sloppy painting do you blame the brush?
AI isn't a tool for art like a brush. AI is a tool for art like a microwave meal is a tool for fine dining. It's a lazy low-quality shortcut that would be completely useless without the actual hard work of others and if a developer uses it for their game it calls their entire operation into question. If they're willing to settle for low-quality output (and don't say it isn't low-quality. Just because you're satisfied with eating dog shit doesn't make it not-dog shit.) then where else are they willing to cut corners? There were enough shit tier scene viewers on the market before AI came along and it's only getting worse now that it's here.
Also you mentioned consistency. Well, again, it’s up to the “prompter” if they care about consistency.
If an actual artist didn't care about consistency, they'd be a shit artist. Why do prompters get a pass? Just look at the flood of crap on R34, or even that one dude going around posting AI generated fan "art" on half the threads I see: the same character in the same pose in the same set of pictures will be at a different angle or in front of a completely different background because AI users don't give a shit. If you have to wrangle the AI so hard for simple consistency then why not just actually draw?
AI is a bubble the same as any other, and actual AI developers are waiting for slop consumers to lose interest so they can get back to work writing algorithms to find cancer cells instead of making AI assistants that generate the most unfappable porn "imaginable."
I'm sure you're going to take a single sentence from this and pretend none of it makes sense so you don't have to reconsider your position, but that's what I get for trying to play chess with a pigeon.
