    To heck with your comment ofd the week. MY comment of the week is just how much I enjoy the relationship you two have. I've been listening since E01 and I just so much enjoy 2 artists from different generations; each equally qualified in the field of art, but also, individually, how Stan is into business and tech and development, and Marshall is into movies and birkenstocks and history - and you just appreciate each other, purely, as friends and individuals . And the outcome is this pod, in which you're trying to give us (the listener) a more well rounded education by way of mentorship.
    It's a special thing, this. Drink a bottle of wine and agree with me.

    If a computer would constantly produce good art, it would devalue the good. In human's case, it's the possibility of creating a bad work that makes good art valuable. The good artwork made by an imperfect mechanism (in this case human) is what defines its value in my opinion. That's why impressionist works are more interesting than photo filters. Or a sculpture vs a 3d printed sculpture. We like imperfections more than the credit we give to it. Because it's these limitations that guide us to discover something unexpected.

    • @NihongoWakannai
      @NihongoWakannai 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      But a computer can produce impressionist works.
      You're comparing artists to current day technology like photo filters, and of course artists come out on top. But there is nothing stopping neural networks from eventually being able to produce anything that current artists can and more.
      What is "good" is defined by humans and learned by the AI. If you think that "imperfections" are good, then the AI will learn how to make art with these "imperfections"

      I think this mostly applies to fine arts, art-only collections, galleries, etc. Call of Duty:Warframe players will care about how cool their soldiers look in-game, magic-the-gathering players will care about how "badass" this boiling swamp looks in his collection of cards, movie goers care about impression they get from this amazing design in Avatar 6. If a computer can make it quickly and with high quality based on current appeal (what's cool in the current landscape of human culture) then I believe many of the art jobs as we know them might disappear since companies making money off that art won't care how hard it was for the human to learn that. What remains is the art made for the purpose of the art itself, not for commercial purposes, which highly narrows the field of opportunities for artists.

    What makes this such an interesting topic for me is that the conversation around it is still at such a fresh and unfamiliar stage for most. Many misconceptions, much emotion (fear, excitement, etc), strong opinions, both informed and ill-informed. As an artist and now tech teacher myself, I've found emerging tech conversations reveal so much about both the students and the topic itself. So much undiscovered gold to be stumbled upon! Thanks for such an infotaining piece.

  • @XxHEAVYGAMERxX
    @XxHEAVYGAMERxX 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    There is one thing I know fully well when it comes to art Is the emotion by it. Every artwork has different work and feelings put behind, which is why art itself feels so unique despite people making the same thing. No amount of technology can replicate what a human likes, it takes a human to understand another human.

    • @kullenberg
      @kullenberg 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      False. When/if we hit the hypothetical technological singularity, AI would understand humans better than we do.

    • @kullenberg
      @kullenberg 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Now that I think of it, I think you have the problem reversed. It is not that AI would not be able to understand how human emotion works, it's that we, as consumers of art, could not relate to and understand AI. So perhaps in that regard, there won't be a context to the art without a flesh and blood artist we can identify with.

  • @vipulgupta3517
    @vipulgupta3517 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You have the example of a country like India not being in art and not having art schools just because it's not seeing as a prestigious of a job at that place. That statement is true as I personally have learnt a lot from the internet and now can draw anatomy from imagination it has only taken me 2 years of daily sketching now. That is because I didn't post for feedback much and tried to get more of my visual library expanded, sure there are times they look stiff but with time they get better. It's all about putting in the work and most people nowadays don't want to 'research' (that was the advice I was given by many people and yeah it helped a ton) they want things handed to them. An AI can't teach artstyle it can only teach something like a strict art teacher would do. Flexibility is more prevalent with artists who have been on the internet. Most of the aspiring artists from India tend to copy and paste others stuff which is a good thing for practice but they don't go beyond that not because they aren't capable but they choose not to do so. Blame the person for not being capable of understanding spatial information.

    My 8 year old daughters are learning to read music and play piano. They are great at reading notes in apps for learning note reading and they love to poke at and play the virtual piano they have on their iPads - but you sit them at a piano with a sheet of paper piano music in front of them and they struggle to read and play. There is a huge difference between our interactivity with computers vs our interactivity with reality. I'm imagining future art masters who are trained by art robots who can draw amazing art with very little intellectual and emotional depth. Humans and the human brain is designed to interact with reality and are extremely complex. It will be hundreds of years (if ever) when a computer can match the emotional in intellectual complexity of a human.

      My thoughts exactly. I could see the experience of joy on Stan's face when interviewing Glenn Vilppu, and the Tim Gula demonstration video's and many others. Live interaction with other esteemed artists as well as students in classes enriches the wealth of the community shared. Is art the perfection of the skill or the reflection of the human spirit to express emotional connections to our human experiences in all art forms?

I'm sure there is an equation or formula for that. But I can't seem to find it. I've ask math teachers. But even they couldn't help me with this. The pentagram is something I tried, and now I'm just so frustrated with it. That now I just would like the answer. So I can do it perfectly.

    Something interesting would be an app where you input all your drawings, and everytime you make a new one and put it there, would tell you how would you have done it months ago, with the mistakes you used to make (even if it's in a very simple way), so you can see the improvement and gets you encouraged to keep going and improving more and more, because sometimes that lack of motivation is the worst thing that could happen In my opinion.

  • @mrstickbird

    Hey ProBro’s! I’ve had an anxiety circling my head for some time now and it relates to feeling like your medium is inferior in some way. I thought to ask this question when Stan mentioned VR being an entirely different medium. I’m a digital painter, however I hold enormous regard for traditional painting and its history, and usually spend most of my time studying traditional pieces in the digital format. However every time I show a family member, or a friend they are sincerely impressed, BUT, as soon as I mention that I paint digitally a sort of distrust seems to appear on their faces. It happens constantly with my father, who will retort with, “did you copy this” “did you do this on paper”. The questions kind of imply a sort of hierarchy (and misunderstanding) of creating art in general. Now in general, I’m pretty confident that this is just a reaction from someone who isn’t fully aware. But shit it really does chip away at my conscience, and REALLY promotes imposter syndrome.
    Where I really, really feel this insecurity is with the presentation of digital painting. It’s just so hard to see how you can ever place a digital print, and a traditional painting next to each other without regarding the painting as being procedurally superior. It just seems like digital art can’t be presented in the same contexts as traditional, and this once again, fosters some really unnecessary insecurity around my place as a painter.
    Thanks heaps in advance homies I really appreciate the podcast!

    It is possible to realistically render practically anything these days; so in my opinion the real limitation for the AI will be interpreting what the artist is trying to draw (if they suck too much it might not be able to figure it out). After overcoming that however it will be able to generate a 3D representation that is what your scene would look like if drawn perfectly. Until then we will start with tools that just help with drawing just a box, or just anatomy, or just fixing lighting, etc. (Basically just reiterating what Stan was saying in the video)
    The next challenge will likely be how to give the best feedback for learning. I am not aware of much research going on in this area right now; Most research is still just trying to get the AI to beat humans, but I suspect soon more attention will turn towards AI assisted learning. Like Stan this area of research interests me greatly and I can't wait to see what happens.
    Aside from learning there will be tools to assist with the creation of art without requiring as much skill or time from the artist (see the videos bellow). That sounds like it might be a bad thing, but personally I think it will free up time for artists to focus on different aspects of the art like style, composition, and story telling.
    For anyone interested a great channel for learning about developments in AI is Two Minute Papers

    The channel creator has background in AI and 3D rendering so he often reviews papers that focus on visual AI.

    32:20 "You can't teach AI composition, same as you can't say that Beethoven's sonnets great by any objective standard"
    Yes, but you can can feed AI an array of great compositions and it will average it and learn what composition great pieces have, aren't it? Because you don't really need to teach AI to understand composition - you need to teach it to know what _people_ like. No doubt that it will make a great Instagram helper, but more advanced and trained on the art pieces network probably could do this even now.

  • @mkAYY825
    @mkAYY825 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Heres an idea !! the student could select the kind of art they want to create, by continuoysly uploading their own favourite artwork into it, and the computer could help them compare and contrast their own work with it to find where they are going wrong. everything from anatomy to composition etc....the process could even help the user find their own voice by analyzing the commonalities of the artwork they like. all this data can be fed back to the proko server and over time AI would learn very rapidly because it will be receiving input from potentially millions of users, it becomes a user driven AI. this solves the "human reaction" factor aswell, because the students are indicating what kind of art they like by uploading it

    WRT singularity, there are also some science books that also make a case that it will never and cannot happen. I also read somewhere about the future of humans and machines to be hybrids of both. At this point, it is all pure guesswork, as far as I'm concerned, particularly since no one has yet really explained what consciousness is and how it works. As such, it has as much validity as any other belief based on faith. For all we know, we could all just be in a giant simulation ourselves -- there are simply things that we don't know. Still I would think that good AI (if it works most of the time) can help, like any other complex computer system (such as face detection, for example), for certain types of things such as perspective, composition, colours, etc (unless you intentionally are break basic rules for specific effects, of course). It may actually help with regards to emotions even, since there are some rules regarding this, but somewhat more limited. As long as something can follow rules, no matter how complex, then the computer can analyse it. And you don't even need to know the rules -- if you give it enough data, it can figure the rules out itself from the data (assuming the data is good).

    P.S. I don't hope A.I. will solve any art problems I might have. I think that traditional methods have worked perfectly for anyone thus far. The curriculum exists. The only thing that A.I. could provide is some kind of synthetic mentorship. I don't know if that would include assessing the direction of the artist based on samples, or what. But things like the Bargue plates - only a mentor might direct you that way. Conversely, maybe you might need to digest everything Will Eisner had to say about art and narrative. Again, only a mentor might read between the lines. Can A.I. know who you want to be as an artist before you do?

    Meh who wants to learn to draw like a robot? Part of the charm of a painting is all of the idiosyncratic quirks unique to that particular artists style. Both Gurney and Frazetta are extremity competent draftsman who come st their work from very different places. To me a robot teaching might be able to do something like teach an extremely watered down version of the Loomis method but you might as well just pick up a Loomis book at that point

    • @ProkoTV
      @ProkoTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not about drawing like a robot. You'd still be learning to draw like a human. With your example on Loomis method, you can learn from the loomis book, but then you still need to practice and get feedback on your drawings. That's where the AI comes in. It can give you feedback on the technical execution. It can show you what a Loomis head looks like in the angle you attempted to draw it. You can then use that information how you'd like. It's just a tool to improve.
