Why This Award-Winning Piece of AI Art Can’t Be Copyrighted::Matthew Allen’s AI art won first prize at the Colorado State Fair. But the US government has ruled it can’t be copyrighted because it’s too much “machine” and not enough “human.”

because I think it makes you sound more smarter 😅

Brilliant. I don’t give a damn what you’d recommend, you’re a pedant who’s clearly out of their depth.

What are analog tools? Strictly speaking, these are tools that don’t use electricity. They don’t require user manuals, and are easy to use.

Like pencils and brushes you dolt.

Any idiot can create AI art. That’s the whole point. I have yet to see anything good or interesting come out of it because you’re right, not every idiot can be an art director. AI just let’s them think they’re doing any of the work and “good” is subjective.

Speaking as an art director, and a digital artist who actually knows what they’re talking about: it is true for all working artists. Your concept only holds true for kids dabbling in technology with no background in art. They might make digital art, but they are not digital artists.

Ironic you’re telling me to cry about it, you’re like 15 paragraphs deep bitching and moaning about AI generated art. If you’re that worried about being replaced, that tells me your art sucks.

Haha. It seems like you’re very insecure about your profession and you’re choosing to lash out instead of examining your own feelings more honestly. Sorry to burst your bubble, don’t shoot the messenger 🫣

You also don’t seem to understand what I was saying.

That’s correct, that is the proper usage.

The closest analog would be an art director for a collage project.

Here, you’re using the word to mean something completely different. Hence why it is preferable to use analogue

No, I use the world to live on. Your entire argument is now invalid, oh shit.

I used the word analog because we’re still talking about an electronic tool vs not electronic set of things.

No, you’re just talking out your ass and trying to claw back a win for yourself by pulling out grammar rules and now trying again to avoid addressing anything of substance I’ve said. Take your L and sit down.

AI as it exists is commercially useless. I speak from experience because of course we looked at it immediately. It may grow into something actually useful for production work but that will never happen so long as it’s pulling everything from the internet - no studio or art director worth their weight will accept the legal risk or the indirect volatility of AI generated art when they can just tap Derek to make the exact requested adjustment directly. The very thing that allows people to feel like they are artists for using it is exactly why it cannot become a viable tool and this article shows exactly why.

This will hold true until a tool is developed isolated from the wider internet and only fed with your studio’s original material OR the copyright laws get ratfucked by someone with more economic might than individual artists.

Keep telling yourself that, it seems to be working.

You haven’t said much of substance, you’ve just made your bias abundantly clear, so it’s pointless for me to continue arguing when I already know where your bread is buttered.

I was only trying to explore this topic from an objective, intellectual standpoint, but you seem to feel as if I am challenging your livelihood, so I will recuse myself.
