I've been doing test streams on #Twitch for the last week and I'll be #streaming today. I mostly stream #traditionalart and #digitalpainting in #Krita. I also use #AIgeneratedimagery, so if you're an AI hater, you may want to pass on my streams. But if you're ok with that and want to hang out and #chat, please stop by. The stream will begin around 15:30 GMT.
For sure there are some ethical and moral questions around AI artwork and the datasets used to train the models, but from what I’ve read so far the loudest voices demonizing these tools are individuals who don’t understand the technology.
At it’s core it’s similar to a person spending hours looking at publicly shared artwork they admire, and learning how to incorporate that style into their own original work. The models themselves contain no image data.
Have some cute robots #Midjourney painted for me:
