This was a great conversation! I'm not OK with people claiming AI produced songs and images are their own creations. If you put in the actual work, you don't need to fake your accomplishments. As a visual artist, I love answering questions such as, "How did you come up with the idea?" or "How did you do that?" and "Who or what inspires you?" You can't get that interaction with AI. It can't explain the brushstrokes, the colors or the artists' message for example. Unfortunately, people will continue to use it as it's more or less free. Now, I'm off to check out more of the awesome artwork by Claudio.
People make choices, people have ideas. A machine cannot create an idea on its own, it has no choice. I have dabbled with AI to storybook an idea, but its not the means to an end.. its just an idea. Its up to you to make it human and worthwhile.
Yet another great episode! "All this machinery making modern music can still be open hearted - and not so coldly charted it's really just a question of your honesty." Too true, and even though AI is here to stay it still has to be manipulated by a human being. You steer it. I've ran email campaigns and created slide show presentations for work using AI and every time - not some times, every single time there are grammar errors and misspellings. Run on sentences that don't make sense. You 100% of the time have to proofread and correct. Notice with AI generated art - a hand will have seven fingers or there will be weird overlaps elsewhere in the art. If you look hard you can tell. Maybe, just maybe if it is used lightly as a tool it will be no more harmful than a book of synonyms, a rhyming dictionary (which could be perceived as cheating in itself) or an ADAT tape from years gone by. Don't get me wrong, I dislike it as much as the fact that whole songs are composed with the press of a button but as long as we retain the human element in art, we will be okay and will have yet another device to use at our disposal if we choose to.
I did artwork for a friend's book and he's going to put out another book.. All his study materials have AI graphics so I told him if he's going to put an AI cover on the next one, I wanted my cover replaced so it wasn't in a bookstore next to AI art... I was really intimidated by it but now that I've been able to sit with it for a while, I think AI stuff will be a cheesy look/sound people will declare the 2020s aesthetic and anyone who uses it now will have art that won't age well and be cringe in 10-15 years.. We're just amazed by it because it's something we haven't seen before. Reminds me of that hologram art that people would line up in the malls to see.. Was looking for one of those pieces recently and you can't find them.. Or those things you'd stare at to see another picture inside the picture.. And omg.. Tarot cards are a problem with AI right now.. about half of them will do everything to bury that they made them with AI.. I appreciate if someone will just come out and say it.. if they bury it, I assume the reference materials are ChatGPT and move on without any consideration... have no interest in garbled Wiki pages.. AI is going to be ruined by scammers flooding the internet.. Those too good to be true photos, the chatgpt script videos, the art.. it all has a 'je ne sais quoi' vibe to it that now screams scam.. It should be a tool, but too many 'get rich quick scam' types out there... I saw some quote basically saying, "AI isn't creating art, it's the avoidance of creating art.." BUT.. I have interviews by people who will use AI and their reference material for the database is only their own work.. Depending on the project, I feel like that could be legit...
@@MrsTinoGirl Love your perspective of AI art being viewed as dated one day. Hadn’t thought of that, but it seems reasonable. Kinda like the spandex of art.
@talklouderpodcast4537 I laughed when I read that.. still have some of mine around somewhere.. and some parachute pants.. think they'll make a comeback some day.. 🫠

@@Loupons_Art Thank you, thank you and thank you. Claudio is amazing and your points in favor of human creativity are entirely valid.
