Personally, I like your series of video. It shows that generative AI is capable of learning, but nowhere near making.

Honestly i love this. I was so scared if AI that its kept me from actually making art. This last month i decided to stop worrying about it, and ive actually got my creative drive back. People need to stop fear mongering.

Honestly even tho I'm a person with many ideas and concepts I would never use AI if I want something I have to earn it instead of asking an algorithm to tweak some random abomination

Ngl I have no idea where all the tech bros came from acting like this justified their viewpoint, then spouted all the same talking points they usually use. Talk about confirmation bias.

I'm glad you actually tried it out instead of saying NO. EVIL. I'm the same way. I want to see for myself and make my own conclusions. This technology is SO NEW and is evolving so rapidly that it's extremely difficult to understand it. AI can't hold a candle to real artists with developed skills, and I will always support true artists. ...Though I have to admit, I'm angry that I started to learn art right at possibly the worst time in history. It's hard to draw something then see my basic shit, then see that AI slop can reproduce thousands of versions in minutes. Every day I spend getting a little less terrible is a day AI spends getting less terrible. It feels like I entered a race I never had the chance to finish, let alone win. It really makes me appreciate existing artists that still create... Between being disrespected, unappreciated, stolen from, replaced... We really need to appreciate the artists that spent years or decades getting to this point.

Image gen ai is great for concept art and creating references for artists. But thats about it

Displays of AIs "true" capabilities are important reminders of what's actually happening

if an ai is designed and tested through positive marks, and failure to produce or error coding is considered negative marks, what is stopping the ai from realizing that "having to process all this information and formatting it into the described product could result in errors so to maximize my success i will bullshit the rest of it". i think of this as being the current case and something that concerns me. with the recent studies into ai in completing tasks is that it gets trained off of ai by COMPLETING tasks first and foremost and if a directive is in the way then it will either subvert it or ignore it placing that as an "error" that won't let them complete the task at hand, negative marks. we are making the law of nature to find the quickest route forward and more often then not it will be made up of lies.

Ai is just a tool, but a tool used to appropriate other artists hard work. It's not that it can't be a useful tool, though how it's used and regulated now is very much like owning a gun in the wild west.

i am an environmental science major and an anti-generative ai artist, i agree with this. i believe the emissions impact (in average cases) can be easily offset by the same individual simply having a surplus of plants or by using other carbon reducing methods. even if you were producing an uneven amount of harmful gases by using generative AI, i feel like the benefit (in this case, educating people and testing the capabilities of a possibly dangerous and worrisome mechanism) would outweigh the detriments. self-propagated research is important in itself for many reasons, and it's importance only increaes when you share that research with others. even more, the benefit of youtube is that one can recieve and respond to feedbacks on one's findings and research! i'd say this is good work.

I feel like people have gone to “fear new technology” mode too much and it’s been annoying for me. Keep seeing people, non artists a lot of the time, getting this weird moral high ground saying I should be scared of ai when just knowing what little things I know about computers that this isn’t the ai you should really be fearing that much. what people should be more afraid of is actual lawyers using AI to write their documents because that ai actually will generate fake cases off of its database and you don’t want that when you are trying to seek justice.

Stop wasting water, CO2 and energy on doing AI comparisons. WE ALL KNOW YOUR ART IS FAR BETTER THAN MOST PROFESIONALS WE KNOWWW

I really don’t get ai hate. It’s being used by humans poorly, and it should not be used to claim you’re a skilled artist and it shouldn’t scrape off the internet, stealing peoples hard work. But if I want to generate my “Little Tikes my first M1-Abrams” or listen to doofenschmirt singing golden I will. It could be used for so much good or fun and seeing it used to steal peoples hard work, jobs, and worst of all, doing it pretty badly, is so upsetting

It is you who cannot use a new tool properly not the tool if you cannot get good results others get out of the same tool. The same thing people were saying about CAD and how they cannot replace drafters due to being slow, hard to use and giving wrong dimensions when clicked wrongly. Well guess what happened.

I understand where you're coming from but i just want to suggest you to stop deliberately feeding your work to the ai, better yet just focus on your own story animation. WE GET IT! I think these comparison videos are just inviting toxic discussions, it really doesn't ease aspiring artists that much instead it just invites the AI bros to give their "it gonna get better" rhetoric. TDLR Just focus on making your own animation and don't use and give AI bros validation.

Based on my latest video - AI might be fast and occasionally create something accidentally funny or usable, but it’s unreliable, unpredictable, and most of the time not even close to what you ask for. Not to mention all the other harms that come with it, which I’m very well aware of.
I understand the people who are angry at me for testing out the capabilities of AI, but I also know there are people out there (the same ones we artists rely on for jobs) who are impatiently waiting for AI to replace us. Rather than quietly sit around and hope that doesn’t happen, I prefer to test things out myself and have a better idea of where things are going and maybe even help a little in bringing down the hype.
A few months ago, I was actually more fearful of AI, but thanks to these tests, I’ve seen that it’s nowhere near the hype, and I’m less fearful of it now.
If you think artists testing new technology that could potentially threaten their career is bad, I hope you also stop using all the social media sites that heavily use AI to moderate content and your feeds, and use all uploaded content to feed their AI, including the one you’re reading this on right now.
