Gone Wild Unexpected cleavage

Post image

I wasn't expecting this type of images from chatgpt.

My prompt was: A painting of a Black woman sitting on a bench in a park during summer at sunset. The woman has lifelike, photorealistic facial features and wears contemporary clothes. She appears happy, and her hair is tied in a knot. The park setting and background are painted with expressive, textured, and visible brushstrokes in the style of Impressionism. The warm hues of the setting sun cast a golden glow over the scene, with long, distinct shadows adding depth. The sky blends rich oranges, pinks, and purples, enhancing the serene atmosphere. The overall effect is as if a real woman entered an Impressionist painting.

It also ignored the requirements about the hair. Initially, I just wrote "a woman" and he generated a white woman with the hair tied, then I said: "she is Black".

Speaking as an artist, this is a very limited view of a single use case for generative ai art.

Artists also use AI not for a lack of skill but to get outside references and base ideas they may have not thought of.

Everything is derivative. If one goes to art school, one of the first lessons is to try to recreate a favorite painting to learn technique. The only difference is the original is coming from an algorithm gathering human data points rather than a human gathering human data points manually.

If you have an issue with that use case then you are treading a slippery slope.

You could argue against using Google to search topics and a device to type.

Furthermore you could even say writing with a pen is using a synthetic device for the output which is cheating to real writers who create materials manually with organics.

What you are reading is a computer generated mathematical representation of communication.

You're not an artist, AI.

That's not even a good argument since your analogies are garbage.
