I've been a portrait and cartoon artist for decades and I think AI can be a useful tool. It's certainly fun to play around with, but it's nice to be able to get art references that aren't from a specific image. For example I was creating an alien planet and I needed '3 storied pink adobe igloos'. I was NEVER EVER going to find a photo reference for that and when it comes to backgrounds and perspective I need references. I can't draw environments straight from my mind. I did several renders and used them all to look at while I drew my own picture.
This is EXACTLY whatI was trying to say! Thank you!!! I think this tool will become such as asset in the creative world! It's (as in all things) how we use the tools we are given. Thank you so much for commenting!
Thank you for that example. I have a friend that drew this little alien guy while she was sitting at work and she sent him to me and said like my friend. I asked what she would do with him, she said nothing. I asked if I could have him to use and she said sure. I want to tweak him a bit and maybe make a family like him and create a series. I want to get into labels and I thought maybe a series of labels of the family. I named him Kirby. I just got to figure out an environment to put him in that will appear to children and adults alike. Any suggestions would be awesome (hint hint, lol)
@@judipalumboThink of an environment that's already interesting. Desert, jungle, tropical beach. Then add words like 'whimsical, strange, alien,' A normal thing with fun adjectives I've found always gives interesting results.
@@Chill1332 Thank you....gonna be interesting, but fun...........lol................gonna start as soon as I get back. I am hitting the dollar tree. Haven't been there in over a month. Gotta check out any new goodies. Unfortunately all our dollar trees are small stores. We don't even have the $3-$5 sections.
I don’t need a craft ROOM. I need a craft HOUSE!
Same 😅
Same here as well.
I will ABSOLUTELY get in line for a craft house!!! lol
Me too!😂
Me too!!!
The surface potential for AI seems wonderful, but under the surface scares the crap out of me!!
I absolutely agree with you in this point about AI. I am fascinated and repelled at the same time!
THAT is how I feel! If it were only being used/created for good - I'd be so excited! But, we all know bad people will use it and do really bad things!!!!!
@@TheCraftyOrganizerso true! There's opposition in everything. Technology benefits the ones who use it well and respect the limitations that should be placed on it. Unfortunately, that seemingly only describes a select few in this world. 😢
Sadly... the bad people always ruin it for the rest of us. 😢
As an author, I'm part of a growing group of like-minded individuals/creatives who recognize the vast opportunities that AI tools afford us. So long as AI is used in an ethical fashion, it can be anyone's best professional friend. There's no need for the "Chicken Little" type of thinking. The sky isn't falling, folks. Rather, the horizon is opening up to us in new and exciting ways. Noreen, thanks for all of your uplifting, entertaining videos and for helping me think about new and exciting ways to organize and improve my home.
I’m back again. I just wanted to say thank you. In my opinion, you are the person to be watching. You always have original ideas and original content. You offer clear examples and instructions. You step boldly into sticky areas. Do the research, offer your opinion with examples, site where you found the things you use. You ask what others think and you genuinely want to know. It’s not only because your goal is generating comments could as an end result for you mean more money. You are thoughtful, amazingly talented both as an artist and in creating organizational solutions. You are balanced because you upfront present yourself as a business professional. I appreciate all the time spent in all that you do more than almost anything else. Time is a precious commodity. Thank you.
This particular video and some of the comments to it honestly are the most “intelligent” exchange of information I have encountered in a long time. Maybe more than a year.
I really appreciate this comment. I do spend a great amount of time making these. And while TH-cam is my 'job'.... my goal is to make videos that I am proud of and I feel have value. But a bonus is getting to chat with everyone and I've gotten to make some genuine friendships with some of the people here. It's an amazing oportunity and I love it.
@@TheCraftyOrganizer your videos do have value. Great value in my opinion. It’s not just a job to you. You have integrity and that shines through. Keep it up.
💐
AI is amazing & very scary all at the same time. As someone who doesn't color or paint, I love looking for free images on Google to use on greeting cards I make. All the AI generated stuff out there using real peoples images & their voices to do bad things is the very scary stuff. Yikes! Great video. 😊
Yes.... the bad uses are so scary! But the generated watercolors, sketches, and drawings would be so amazing in our craft projects! I wish there was a way to ensure the tools would be used for good!
@@TheCraftyOrganizer Your never going to stop it/them.... so embrace what you can and be alert to the other. I can remember back when, I would say early to mid 80s saying. I will never have a computer, who can understand all that stuff, who can afford it. Now you almost can't live without it. AI will become the same.
Very interesting, I don't think I will go down this rabbit hole any time soon, probably never. Thanks for doing it for us.
Any time!
You did such a wonderful job of explaining this. Thank you!
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words.
I have a craft walk in closet. It's big enough for a desk and it has wire shelving but it's crowded. I'm reorganizing it now with my goal being able to find what I need quickly. That's my 2024 goal. Also not buying any craft supplies until this is done. That will be tougher then reorganizing 😂.
I avoid Hobby Lobby for that reason!!! lol
At the end of December 2023 there were 9 copyright class action lawsuits including The NY Times and many more expected to come. I hate it for artists because some have actually seen their name/signature in AI generated artwork.
Thanks for video.
It’s going to be interesting to see the future of this technology!
My son is a professional photographer when he's not working his 9-5. We just had this conversation today and the fear is many photographers are concerned that AI can and may take over. Granted, you'll still need someone to grab the shots, say at a wedding, but the enhancements many photographers charge extra for are now easily created through these various AI programs. I would love to learn more to create a family mural over my fireplace. Thanks for diving in and coming back up with a full catch of info!!
I think this is a great example - this technology could make photo enhancements more accessible for photographers… opening up more opportunities. The skill level is WAY outside of my short dabbling, but thankfully there are tons of tutorials. Thanks so much for watching and commenting 💕
Great explanation, Norrine. I too find it interesting yet scary. I'm a programmer who works on business applications and I'm not a fan of all the drag and drop and computer generated programming. Mostly because I'm seeing new programmers who really don't understand what is happening underneath the hood ... they just know the boxes to click and often end up clicking the wrong ones and not thinking the entire process through. The generation before me probably thought the same thing about me! I'm trying to keep an open mind and see how I can use it to benefit me because I certainly can't change it. I love how you seem to have the same attitude of looking for the positive and how you break things down in an easy to understand way. 💕
I remember learning HTML and creating a webpage back in the early 90's. It was so hard to learn! Now I have a drag and drop webpage - and I hate it! I want small modifications, but the code is so deeply hidden - I can't get to it! Guess there are good and bad in all things.... I just try to keep focusing on the good. Thanks for checking in with me, Darla! Hope to see you again!
Good for you! You are the first I’ve run across to tackle this in crafting! Hope it goes viral for you! Congrats on the brighter side of life you have been enjoying lately. Continued Blessings!
Thank you, Marcy!
First, it was four hundred thousand not four million. Both are outrageous. Second, thank you so much for you research and video. You made it easy to understand. Third, thank you for bringing up ethics, philosophical, and pragmatic concerns. So much room for thought. Also, I have binge watched your last 4 months. I'm so glad your make and making videos. I've missed your down-to-earth DIYs and outlook. Thank you for sharing!
I'm so glad you liked the video!!! The article I showed said 400K, but in the text under the photo showed 4.5 million. Which (as we both agree) is outrageous!!!! It's going to be interesting to see where AI takes us. Thank you so much for catching up on my videos! I really appreciate you being here with me. 💜💐
You're the best!
@@TheCraftyOrganizerthe author said that Christie’s had done it again. In the past, a painting was thought to be a DaVinci and sold for 4.5M. This time, someone developed an AI image.. 400,000. :)
OH MY GOSH! Thank you, Chris! You are absolutely right! Hooked on Phonics failed me! LOL
You know the old saying "just because we can ,doesnt mean we should" God created us as creative people, I hate to think what we will be like when our creativeness is taken away and replaced with a button we push on a computer,and no longer create ourselves😢
I hope it becomes a useful tool and not a replacement. But, how many art forms have gone away because a machine can make them faster, and for less. Thank you for your point of view. 💜
You have very simply explained the ins and outs of using this technology and also very simply gave a "bullseye" 🎯 for us crafters to easily use. Thank you so much for doing this video. Keep up the great work! God Bless.
I appreciate that, Linda!
Wow! I really appreciate you doing this work and sharing your findings. At this point I feel like I’m being dragged into the future. There is a lot to absorb and process and you presented the information gently and kindly. Thank you! ❤
You are so welcome!
Oh my! I’m still struggling with cricut! I don’t think I’m going AI 😎
LOL I still only do the basics with my Cricut too. I hear ya!
Would love to see a video on how you constructed your new tier tray items.
OH! I didn't film it.... but I could re-do it!
When talking about copyright it is a very confusing issue as a lot depends on the country you are in. For example the book Winnie the Pooh is now copyright free in the U.S. but here in Canada only the TEXT is copyright free meaning that in the U.S you can print out the book with the pictures and as I do make earrings and mini books from it sell them but as I am in Canada I can only do the text and not include any of the pictures as you have to wait a certain length of time after the creator dies before it is copyright free. If you design an image such as your baby cows in the field and change even 1 thing such as the colour of the flowers, or the placement of the cows or the size of the picture, it is now your work and therefore are entitled to sell it as your work, at least here in Canada. Bottom line is always check what your country's copyright laws are or ask a librarian to check for you.
That is so wild! I think as AI gains more household users, the laws are just going to get more and more muddied! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
This one video clip on AI generated images is the most interesting one I've watched in a very long time. Thank you!
Wow, thank you! Glad you liked it!
Some how I had your video off. I have missed you. Glad I got you back.
Welcome back!
I watched several of your organization vids. They helped me so much! My craft room is still a hot mess but it’s getting better. Thank you for your ideas!! God bless you!
I'm so glad!
I have a craft area, not a room, and I totally get the small space struggles! Thanks for going down this rabbit hole for us, I never thought about using AI for crafting
I'm in a room... but am only using the corner right now. I have full room goals though! LOL
I am hoping you are planning a tour of your new home. Please!🎉
It’s a work in progress! But, yes. 🥰
I moved from a one bedroom apartment by myself where I had half the living room as a craft and sewing area...... now I moved into a 2 BR apartment to help my Dad- where we SHARE an office room. Lucky for me he gave me most of the closet in here!!
That's about what my craft space is.... half a room. BUT I am very happy to have that space, and not be in a cold garage anymore! We will make our half spaces amazing together. 😉
So one bedroom is your shared office and the other bedroom is shared sleeping space???
It's 3 rooms.... one for my daughter, second is a shared office/storage/craft space, and the 3rd is the bedroom with my husband. :)
Thank you Norrine ❤
You're welcome 😊
Fabulous video!! What great information on AI.. You are so good at explaining things 😊
Thanks so much!
I have a lot of interests in all kinds of things. Way to many to mention. Repurposing is one sewing diamond
painting puzzles painting just a few to mention. My room is 12×12. I been trying to get organized.
Consider me your personal cheerleader and giver of suggestions for getting organized! 💜
This is an area I have never given much thought to before. Especially as it relates too crafting. Love the points you brought up and definitely something to consider more seriously.
There is lots to consider, that's for sure! Thanks for watching. :)
Thank you for diving into this! I didn’t know /hadn’t heard the art world was being affected by AI, but that’s a big DUH on my part! It is amazing and totally scary - yes!
Couldn't agree more!
I'm glad you went down that rabbit hole so I didn't have to. Still working on the junk/craft room...it's taking a long time but I'm hoping to get it sorted out soon.
You can do it!
Great information!! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Great info! Selling what we find is sure a gray area!
I agree!
Thanks for explaining this AI. Looking forward to seeing your new space.
More to come!
Thank you for going down that rabbit hole. It was an interesting program today.
Thanks for watching, Katherine!
Thank you for educating me on AI
You are so welcome! Though, it's so much, I barely scratched the surface!!
As someone who has a penchant for crafting without an ounce of talent for it, AI has been my best friend. BUT it's the potential for misuse that scares me!
I agree!!!!! But, as the comic books say, with great power comes great responsibility!!!!! Thanks for checking in.
AI is the future. Businesses are investing heavily in it so it isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. I have mixed feelings about this, I mean I grew up on the Terminator movies! 😂
😆 That is too funny!!! I'd be more excited about it if I knew it was only going to be used for doing good things.... but history shows that's not what some humans do with tools like this.
My mom god bless her soul said when they first came out that we were all going to be in trouble one day because they were going to take over the world!
It's scary/amazing what they are capable of!
I really didn’t know anything about AI and this is really helpful to me. I belong to a group that has free images, and I believe they are all made with AI. Thank you for giving me some insight.
I've joined a few myself! They are supposed to indentify the AI art - but, if everyone was honest, our world would be a completely different place... wouldn't it. Thanks for checking in 💐
So informative and interesting. Thank you!
Thanks for watching, Dana!
Thank you for researching this for me, Norrine!
Thanks for watching!
Just this week needed to find an image of a police officer with Angel wings to make a memorial for my brother-in-law who passed away early in the week. I could not find quite what I was looking for so I used an AI to generate some until I found a few I liked. It was a game changer. I was very pleased with the results, but it takes a little practice to put in the right words needed to generate the image you’re looking for.
I am so very sorry for you and your family's loss. My son is also a police officer so my prayers go forth even more abundantly for comfort to all.
I am so sorry to hear about your brother. I am glad to hear you were able to create an image to honor him. 💜
Nora. You are amazing. ❤
Thanks, JoAnn!!!
Thank you so much for sharing about AI!!!
Thanks for watching!
Wow so informative. Thank you. 💝🥰
You are so welcome!
Thank you. This is a very interesting topic that I haven’t given much thought to and didn’t think to use as a way to generate images for us3 in my crafting. I will definitely be exploring this source.
If you do - try Bing CoPilot. It's through Microsoft and it's Free!
Great & informative video, Norrine. Thank you!
Thank you so much
Thanks for the info!
I appreciate you being here with me.
Great video-I would love to hear more!!!!
It's a deep, deep rabbit hole!!! Not sure I'd come out if I got in again! LOL
AI is mind blowing for sure, I have seen so many things that have just blown my mind. I am not sure if it is something that I will get into but love seeing what others are doing with it.
It's not that bad... I recommend Bing Copilot - it gave the most user friendly results, and is free.
I stayed till the end ! See you for l.f.
Thank you so much for staying till the end!
Just a small note about Windows: it was created in response to Macs, trying to emulate the popular and easier-to-use Apple OS.
That makes sense!
Great video Noreen! Thank you for sharing❤
Thank you, Leanne! I always appreciate you checking in and saying hello 💜💐😘
wow, just tried the Bing AI, it is AMAZING!!!!
What did you make???? Once I got the prompts figured out, I was making consistant images that I liked!
Thanks for the information 👊🏽
You are welcome!
Thank you for sharing the AI information. I’m not overly tech savvy, but your explanation was very clear and easy to understand. I always look forward to your videos.
Barbara in Ohio. 🤗💕
Thank you, Barbara!!! It was a very different video
Verrrrry interesting…….I tried it and it’s so crazy good! Thanks ❤
Right??? I tell you... I was on my computer for HOURS, just creating images! It's wild. Thanks for checking in!
❤️❤️❤️
Great video with some very interesting information.
Thank you - so much to consider!!!
Great info, Norrine! This is specific and awesome! I love it!❤ As always, thank you for sharing! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
Thank you, Deane!
@@TheCraftyOrganizer You're very welcome, Norrine!❤️
How fun! Thank you, I can’t wait to try pilot.👍🏻❤️
I think you are a perfect example of who could use this!!! Please keep me posted if you use it!!!
Really appreciate this video. Great job on explaining AI.
Thank you so much!
Norine I really enjoyed learning a little more about AI from someone who speaks my language. Thank you for taking the time to create and share this video! BTW, your new craft room is looking great!
Thank you!!!! I spent a whole day playing with it to make it look less cluttered! xoxox
I think your explanations are so clear and detailed. Love your ability to share information that sticks!- Regarding AI creations, I love a tool that helps to create things if you do not have the ability to draw or paint. However, one of my fears is that AI will create youth who never learn how to draw or paint or create truly hand created art. Hope society still has the ability to inspire amazing painters 20 years from now.
I never thought of that! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!!
omg thank u so much for all this helpful info!!!!
You're so welcome!
Thank you ssooooo much for explaining in a way I can understand! Would learn to learn more but only from YOU!
Thank you, Cheryl!!! I'll keep them coming!
Thanks for this video and explanation on kinda how AI works. It’s intriguing yet scary, but it’s here so might as well learn about it. I’m thinking I’ll give it a try because many times I want a specific design, as you did, and just don’t have time or patience to look for it.
That was the stream I was trying to go down - there are VERY scary sides to it.... But I am following the positive sides.
I have been wanting to try AI. I think now I will.
Try Bing, Copilot. It was the most user friendly and free. :)
I used Bing AI to generate beautiful, customized images for sublimating onto wooden Christmas tree ornaments. I love it!
I think that's amazing!
It gives new meaning to the term “starving artists”, making it exponentially harder for artists to make a living!
I worry many of the ways we earn a living is being replaced by automation and self service kiosks. Time will tell how this all develops. Thanks for checking in.
I found this video super fascinating and appreciate your hard work in putting it together! AI is pretty confusing to me but this helps to start breaking it down so thank you. 😃
Thanks, Anne!!!! Always wonderful to see you here. 💐
@@TheCraftyOrganizer 💙💙💙
I think it was $400,000. 😂 I used a program to recreate some dreams as well as one that recreated my sister as a kind forest shaman. It was not free after a single use so I’m currently looking into free programs. Just for fun.
I know 😂 The actual article explains the $450 million price tag.... even $40 is crazy for computer-generated art!!! Try Bing Copilot. I've made at least 20 images, and it's still free. Try it and let me know what you think!
Do you have a video that shows how you made the decorations for your tiered tray?
I do not... but I'd be happy to make one!
Well that was informative! I'm not sure I have an opinion as yet! I haven't delved into the AI world as yet but I might just do some exploring and really try not to go down that rabbit hole! Lol. Good luck to me! Thanks for sharing this info with us Norrine! 😍
I think the generated watercolors, sketches, and drawings could be so amazing in our craft projects! Bing Copilot was (in my opinion) the best. It yielded the most 'crafty' style images. I just wish there was a way to ensure the tools would be used for good! Thanks for always checking in, Diane! It's wonderful to have you here with me.
I am with you, AI is great but,... I think at some point the Grey area will dwindle to black and white and some how, some entity will calim a copyright. I say entity because it will probably be a company that created AI software. But, for now the software is in toddler stage. Once it has a good base, then I bet we zee changez to the copyright use.
Interesting point! I wonder how they would even be able to show it belonged to their software? It will be intersting to see where this goes in the future. Thank you for another point to ponder. :)
The article you flashed said the piece for $400k not $4 million. That’s still a lot of money. I tried to find a photo of one that sold for $4 million but I couldn’t.
I know... I don't know why the title says that.... the aricle explains it was $450M. But still, how!!
Thank you for this very informative video- this is not for me-my head is spinning! I hope I can continue to craft the old-fashioned way!
Thanks for watching 💐
AI scares me to death. Anytime you can take something and make it look real when it is not is going to cause BIG problems
Agree! But I am not suggesting it be used in that way.
This is a great video. I avoid AI and with the lawsuit against AI from the globe and mail. It is a huge rabbit hole. But the bad outways the good. It a very slippery slope and a scary one at that!
SO true..... time will tell how this tool is really used. Hoping it stays in the lane of good.
Hello, kewl, sweet beautiful friend Norrine. I don't consider myself a crafter but i do enjoy trying to create something regardless. With having bad comprehension from a learning disability and an essential tremor in both of my hands. I think using AI to at least sort of help me create something i love trying to make but being limited due to my tremors, i think AI will benefit not just myself but hopefully others with simuliar issues like mine or worse than mine. Thank you for having done your study for us here...your youtube family. Happy weekend to you, your husband and daughters. P.S. I look forward to your new Craft Room. Bye bye, peace and god bless you all.
Michael - try Bing Copilot - it's really easy to use.... and it's free! Pick your favorite animal and ask for renderings in different settings - and tell it the style. Watercolor, sketch, crayong, etc. It's amazing what it comes up with and how FAST! Have fun!
@TheCraftyOrganizer will do and thank you Norrine.
Anytime!
In my administration job I use AI all the time to reword things I wrote to make them read more professional or enticing, friendly etc.. never thought to try it for crafting even though I have used it to generate a picture to reflect the name and purpose of a monthly news letter I was creating for the real estate agent I work for. I do think AI is scary, fascinating and something to keep an eye on.
You said EXACTLY what I am thinking.... scary, fascinating and something we need to keep an eye on!
I think AI is dangerous and I do not intentionally engage with it.
I get it! It’s very new with so many potentially nefarious uses.
@@TheCraftyOrganizer my brother and my step dad are both computer engineers and I’ve been around AI for decades and seen the advancements up close and personal and I have definitely been disheartened by its new accessibility to the masses. It’s really unstoppable, there’s so many variables and variations that there isn’t a fail-safe at this point.
Thanks for asking for our opinions while trying to navigate this new Ai program and its use and meanings.
As an artist myself I really dislike Ai because it uses images that are created by real artists, that had to put in loads of their time and energy to create & enhance their skills & find their own style (this goes for photographers as well as painters, illustrators, even for singers and actors) so there are loads of people having invested so much to first develop their skills, their style who then took loads of time to make a certain artwork.. and there comes a computerprogram that steals all ofcyhat by using others artworks or photographs or even peoples (think celebreties) personal features which (if I'm not mistaken)are all copyrighted themselves (except the celebrities maybe although you can't just use those at random which is very fair & logical I think) but the art/photographs used by Ai is owned by their maker and Ai just steals that without any acknowledgement or pay, and sometimes the images generated have even used one source so much the artists' style and even their autograph shows up on it.
So I absolutely hate the use of Ai for 'artwork' as it is harmfull to the artists it uses (cause its faster & cheaper or even free) & it has the potential to ruin any future possibilities for artist cause they might not survive this. It is basicly stealing art and reusing it with real life implications for real artists/designers. Like your examples are compiled of works of artist who spend hours on it, but have no say in it being used and get NO return *not even recognition* let alone pay for their work.
So even this 'innocent' use of Ai for artwork and images/songs etc is inherently a very bad idea with massive negative impact on all creative occupations.
Its why both singers and the whole artworld are very much against it & are trying to get it banned.
And I'm not even talking about the other negative impacts it already has, or could potentially have in the future. Only in this 'creative' use regard it is already having a huge negative, quite infuriating tbh, impact on the people it steals from and I wish more people would realise this.
So for me its a big NO - Please don't use it. I would even be NOT happy if someone gifted me something they made using Ai images. I really wouldn't want it.
On top of that, Ai 'art' either feels soul-less, or if it does have a soul, that is the soul the original artists put into their works with loads of effort, before it got stolen to be mashed up & spit out. So to me it is very disrespectfull, dishonest and very harmfull to our creative industries & artists.
Yeah that's about it for me 😅
VERY good insight and reasoning! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.
I'm very intrigued by A I...
Set a timer! It's a DEEP rabbit hole! LOL
@TheCraftyOrganizer I played with it while husband drove to and from my moms... I really enjoyed making pictures tyty for the quick tutorial about it... was scared to try 😬
What did you make? Did you get close to what you imagined??? I was always so suprised when it got close to what I was thinking. :)
@TheCraftyOrganizer it got close very close... I just described pictures In my head, they actually came out cooler than my head lol... I love highland cows, black and white cow and kittens and cats so that's was my focus
I think our world has gone crazy most days. AI sounds like it will make it even more crazier!
I carved out a 10x10 piece of my basement. I positioned the furniture to make walls. Absolutely have major issues making everything fit
That's what my craft room USED to be..... in the middle of my garage, but the 'walls' were my bookcases, which meant I has storage all around me! It's a challenge. Let me know if you need suggestions for your space. I am happy to see if I can help.
One thing that AI-generated art makes me think of is when synthesizers first hit the music world. I think it was around the 1960s maybe...? I'm not sure if they were banned worldwide, but there were at least some places/countries that banned the use of them for performances or recording, because the fear was that human musicians would be replaced by technology. Well, I kind of wonder what someone like Taylor Swift would think of that. I'm not sure if musicians use those types of synthesizers now, but you know music is performed and recorded using technology. Also, when cameras first came out, at least some visual artists like painters screamed that photography would replace them. I don't know if anyone asked that a camera ban be enacted anywhere, but I'm pretty sure painters & photographers are both still around & producing art in their respective fields. And how many visual artists now use photography - & have for years - to create either their primary or supplementary reference material for guiding/informing their paintings, sculptures, etc.? Though even that can be considered controversial among some artists today. Yes, there are MANY negative applications for AI, but there are also many positives. The technology itself is agnostic - neither good nor bad; it's how people use it that determines that. Like nuclear energy can be used to create devastating destruction with atomic bombs, but is also used in medical applications that can save people's lives. It all lies in HOW people use it. I do believe the law does need to catch up with the technology, though, to provide guidance for its use & consequences for misuse. Anyway, thank you for going down the rabbit hole for us, Norrine. I hope y'all are doing well. How is your dad these days? I haven't see any updates in a while. I recall one of your daughters was having medical issues sometime last year, too. Is she doing OK now? Just wondering. Take care, & have an awesome day! :)
Andrea - this comment is so perfect! It summerizes so many of the things I am feeling! I 100% agree with you! The technology is amazing - the fear comes from how it could be used! But that, as always, lies with the integrity of the user. Thank you so much for sisinctly summerizing both the fears and assumptions, but pointing out the positive reality of where AI can go.
I have trouble figuring out my cricut so I don't think I'll be checking out AI anytime soon.
Oh.... I STILL haven't mastered that! LOL Play with Bing Copilot. It's fun! And I really do think it would be helpful in the crafting world. 💐
I would love to know more about this. Does it cost to use the technology? How much does it cost to use the AI ? I have downloaded images off Facebook but have not used them because I don’t know what the legality is… more detailed information please!?!
All of the sites I mentioned were free. I'd recommend Bing Copilot, I found it the easiest to use. :)
I hv a craft CORNER in my bdrm.
Me too!!!
@@lindabarraza2433 @mariay.279 Me three! And it's driving me nuts! I'm a quilter, so trying to cram everything in here is getting ridiculous. I have several chronic illnesses and lots of pain, so I just can't seem to get anything organized in here. I need a craft buddy! Or a pro organizer, but can't afford one! Send help! 🤪
Honestly, I've never given much though to AI generated art. Did I even know it was a thing?🤔 Would i use it? Possibly to make stickers for my personal planner, but I'd be afraid to sell them.
I agree... I think it needs to remain for personal use only!
4:04 - incorrect, you said “when Microsoft Windows first came out we were operating in line tech” but no, those were DOS prompts, not Microsoft Windows.
I did not have the ability to generate actual language for screenshots. I was hoping the visuals would help with the general idea.
You mentioned the printability of these images. Do you find them to be too pixilated to print clearly?
SUPER clear!!!! I was so suprised!
The print you said was sold for 4 million actually says in the headline it was $400,000. But yikes that is still crazy!!😮
Edit: when I read the part of the article that is shown though it says $450 million so they must've screwed up the headline.
Even if it was $40 - it's too much for a computer prompt! Rules will have to be made for this - SOON! Thanks for checking in, Jennifer!
I think AI art can be used for personal use but not for sale. Only free images,or non-copyrighted images should be sold. This is my opinion..not fact
I agree 100%. Artists works way too hard and long. They should be compensated for this. Personal creations can remain personal.
As a traditional artist, I do not like AI.
I understand! You probably spent weeks or more on your art. I wish there was a way to ensure the tools would be used for good! And NOT take away from artists, like yourself.
My opinion stems from being a graphic artist married to a paralegal. We’re both expecting it to be a hot mess for many different reasons.
It’s going to put people out of jobs.
It’s going to become a copyright issue. As soon as people start suing because their personal watercolor showed up in something someone AI generated and mass produced… it’s a matter of time.
In trials, where will we be when even visual evidence is questionable?
Others have said they’re fine with it as long as it’s used ethically. Hahahaha. :) Just like Napster was so ethical with MP3s were the hottest new technology.
All I can say is that I’m glad I’m on the cusp of retirement before this hits the fan.
Oh - I agree!!!! I love it as a tool, from a crafting aspect - but there must be some form of protection for creators! One of the larger AI generating companies is DallE (after famous artist Salvador Dalí) Because their first successful AI generated image was in the style of Salvador Dalí!!!! So, the result was obviously taken - yet, because it was not created by the original artist - merly 'in the style of'... it's ok?!? I keep my images simple for now. 'Cute cow'! 'Sunflower watercolor'.... but I know others are using it in ways that are clearly not ethical and making a profit. So much grey area here that needs to be defined.
I couldn't have explained this better myself. I love how you break things down to make it easy for anyone to understand. That's one of my favorite things about you (there are many 💞).
As a photographer and artist, I have a love-hate relationship with AI. I love how much I can do with it. At the same time, it scares me to death that it will take over our world someday. There are so many ways that it is advancing and at such a rapid pace, it really is mind-blowing and scary.
I do, however, think that incorporating AI into the fields of cybersecurity, medicine, and technology is a win-win situation. However, I fear that it will start hindering the development of young minds who use it to cheat in school. I guess we'll know in a few generations if AI has left our youth of today and tomorrow inept. A terrifying thought, indeed! 😔😑
I think, as far as crafting goes, it's a very useful and unique tool that anyone can use and love. As crafters, our imaginations are wild, colorful, and limitless, so I'm looking forward to seeing all of the amazing creations people come up with. 😮😍🤩
Bonnie I could not agree more!!!! The bad uses are so scary! But the generated watercolors, sketches, and drawings would be so amazing in our craft projects! What's that Spiderman saying, "With great power comes great responsibility??" I wish there was a way to ensure the tools would be used for good! Thanks for being here with me. 💜
You said it just as I was thinking it... This AI stuff is scary. I haven't done anything with it yet and I'll hafta play around with it then I can let you know if it feels like something I'll actually use. The 4 million dollar deal, IDK, that just doesn't sit well with me, y'know? I might turn to AI for ideas or inspiration, but like I said, I'll hafta play with it for a bit.
Travis and I got home from Indiana a few days ago... Oh Mini, it's lovely there!! We're starting the process - and what a process it will be - and are aiming to be Midwestern folks in the spring of 2025! What's up with you? Gurrl, we need to TALK!!
Love you, sweetie! It'd be great to hug you soon! XOX 🤗❤️🌵❤️🤗
Oh! And while Travis was spending time watching trains I wandered around an IKEA! 🙌🙌 And it was in the same parking lot as Michael's!! 😳 I kid you not!!! 🫣. But I was SO good 😇 because I remembered my suitcase and the (relatively speaking) small 🤏 amount of space I'd left myself to bring something extra home. Whew 😅
I’d move there just because of those two stores in the same parking lot!!!! lol I’m SO excited for you!!!!!!
