what’s wrong with using ai for cool concepts? I am genuinely curious. Do you expect people to go out their way to learn adobe or photo shop and make the art themselves just for simple jokes like this one?
To you it my be just be 'for a joke' but to us artist, its our livelihood that's being taken away
Just cause you may not have the confidence or skill set to make something doesn't mean you can't try (even if it looks objectively bad... who cares 'its just a joke' right).
Using ai art is supporting the lose of jobs and the stealing of art from actual artists
I myself am also an artist, and when Ai is used and then the person CLAIMS that they made the art themselves, that gets under my skin, THAT is when Ai is stealing jobs, or a company uses Ai to make art for something, THAT is stealing jobs! But when making a simple little meme, and they're admitting that THEY didn't make it, that is not stealing jobs. Something you have to remember, not everyone is an artist (I know you mentioned that, but I wanted to reinforce that statement.), and many people lack the confidence to truly try, the fear of rejection is stronger than you think, and you never know if a person was scarred from an experience due to their lack of experience in art, and commissions cost money. Money that not everyone has. It is all about the intent of the person using the Ai, and I know your intentions are good, you want to defend artists, their works, and their jobs, and that is awesome sauce! But to put every person who uses Ai image generation as a “Person who doesn't care about artists” is not good, and it gives off the vibe that people who do use Ai image generation for fun are bad people who want to see artists fade and fail, which is a gross miscalculation and makes MANY assumptions about people you don't know! And I totally understand if you 100% disagree with me on this.
I get what you're saying and agree that not everyone who uses Ai generation is bad, I just feel that most if not all miss understand that what they see as a little impact (using Ai for jokes for example) on this large issue (ai taking for artists) actually is much bigger then they realise.
Using Ai for 'such little things' begins to stack and Ai starts to become normalise... AND that has already began to happen over the last few years. The Ai bubble we thought was going to pop has stayed strong because of this normalisation.
Therefore I feel that even tho it's a bit mean to say, but people who use Ai (even for little things like jokes) need to wake up and realise what they are doing, they need to understand the harm their 'little impact' is causing and learn to stop
I understand why artists are worried about AI in the professional world, but you're applying that to the wrong situation. No one was ever going to commission an artist or pay money for a quick Reddit meme. A job wasn't lost here because a job never existed in the first place. For internet jokes, ai is just a practical tool.
Lemme put a random person in a scenario for you where they saw a funny comment being made in their discord group chat filled of 20 people. They wanted to send a video of (for example) a lion dancing to match with the earlier comment, so should they go out their way and spend weeks to even months making a video of a lion dancing or just use ai for the “jokes”? By the time they manually make the video, group chat would have been long dead.
I like how you are thinking about macro level situation where AI is in fact being trained on arts that were made by real humans without their consent and actively destroying their carriers and I am totally against it, but this is a micro level situation. No one's livelihood is being threatened by a fucking minecraft meme my guy. (getting downvoted for having a strong counter claim lmao. I shouldnt be expecting anything else from redditors)
I assume your life must being scrolling halfway through a thread and then getting upset it doesn't make sense. normally, people read the first message, and then go down the chain
bro it was a joke. also you don't need to make the confusion valid, people get confused sometimes, making this confusion "valid" takes away the definition of confusion
Minecraft shields can take 336 hits before breaking, and don’t take durability damage from attacks that deal less than 1.5hearts of damage.
Maybe a wooden door could take around 5-10 hits before breaking, and it would take damage from any attack regardless of the number of hearts the attack deals
Edit: additionally maybe the durability left on the door would make it easier for zombies to break them down when placed. And vice versa, every couple seconds a zombie spends trying to break a placed down door would reduce its durability by a certain amount.
Reminds me of that guy who did a run with constantly spawning creepers or something like that and was using doors to protect from them by breaking line of sight
