It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Latest bullshit job: “AI Prompt Engineer”

When communists do something bad, it's communism!
When capitalists do something bad, it's communism!
Communism is when bad
I know a few graphic designers and they're STRUGGLING for work right now. It's horrible out there for them. They're available! They will absolutely make great graphics! But yeah you do kinda have to pay them and capitalists hate paying people so here we are
As someone who has commissioned artwork and who has tried out the AI """art""" generators... it doesn't even begin to compare. The only way I can possibly imagine someone thinking an AI """art""" generator could replace real artists is if they've never ever worked with any artist ever.
An argentinean friend of mine, was complaining about the lack of gas oil in gas stations on Argentina and said "we're literally Venezuela!!" and I was like my dude, if Venezuela have problems, lack of gas oil is not one of them, you cannot use Venezuela as an example for everything you don't like.
Didn't Venezuela have oil shortages due to all the refineries being located outside the country?
He is learning the hard way that AI is terrible for concept art.
AI can only create things that are a mash up of already available ideas, but if you want to create something new and specific to a vision it with turnarounds/details no, it's not going to do it. It is incapable of making small adjustments specific to a vision.
I like to use AI when working on my art specifically as an idea and reference generator. The AI can act as a fun way to jog the brain and come up with new ideas- but I have never been able to get it to give me exactly what I'm looking for.
I want an AI that can intake like 10 drawn pictures of people and then animate an entire cartoon movie. I feel like this is a pretty doable thing tbh
Idk if I'm even totally against this guy, because what he's complaining about is the same thing that makes YouTube copywrite strikes so annoying.
Not like the stuff getting censored is indie creative stuff on DeviantArt. This is guaranteed "You can't use a keyword that might upset Disney" tier censorship.
It's classic enshittification, either way.
Hexbear meet up
AI generated art fucks me up, because something like this can occur on a whim. 10 years ago if i saw this, i would be like, "wow, what drove a talented artist to go through all the trouble to render this detailed vision?"
I also spend hours arguing with the AI
Imagine arguing with a bunch of if...then statements.... Ted was right.
