THere is now Ai music, Ai vocals, and I don't feel like it's stealing my bread. I am chilled with it. There are rooms for everyone...
I gave up posting about my Ai Art because I didn't enjoy the rewards I was getting. But I still enjoy posting on IG about my Ai art.
Yeah everyone starts to panic like it's the end of the world.
Uncomfortable with the fact you were getting rewards or that you didn't?
Yeah I understand the panic because it will probably be the end of us all, but it's kind of inevitable so why not enjoy the process hahah...
About the rewards, I felt that my AI art deserved much more rewards than the one I was getting, and then it somewhat validated for me that maybe my AI art wasn't that special and maybe that none of what I am doing is special, creativity is a merky water, because some days you feel like a genius and the next day like the average moron. And it bled into my music somehow, so I am staying away from it for a little while, as like everyone else I have a "confidence bar" that can deplete, and I prefer depleting it with my music right now. I'll come back to it, but it needs to be more playful, I always compete with other artists in my mind, it's hard to just embrace art for what it is, just art. Especially when you're trying to make a living with it.
Hahaha you asked a simple question and gave you the most convoluted answer.
I totally agree with and understand all you say! I mean there's a huge explosion of AI art everywhere, so what makes ours better, more unique, etc etc? And yeah that OBSESSION of creating images and the whole wonder of it can take up time you probably could be putting into other, perhaps more valid, creative energies?
We do live in an image rich world - we're totally over run by it. How much has the power to 'wow' anymore? And how might ours 'wow' more than anyone elses? How much is our essence, our unique creative prompting and vision, and how much is it just the AI drawing from the rest of humanity according to a language input?
Still, I'm loving doing the IG. Thanks for following me there. I like the way I can do half real life images and half AI, like I'm showing my human through the AI created imagery too. Here I am in the forest for real, here I am in an imaginative forest.
it's interesting the word that you picked, the first few months of using Ai art , I really enjoyed what it triggered in me, but after a while, I think it reminded me a bit of the desensitization that one could feel after watching a whole bunch of p*rn. If all your "fantasies" are being fulfilled, then what is left to do? So while it's a great tool to help imagine and dream, it should be used with caution because it can very well gives that dopamine boost that is "similar to the real thing", but we all know that nothing can replace the real thing, whether we talk about creation, relationships, life, hahah...
Now you wanna hear some crazy shit?

So very soon, you'll just imagine something in your mind, and it will be interpreted by a computer and AI, fascinating.
It also means you could create your own movie, it would probably revolutionize the whole industry, everyone making up their own stories in the comfort of their own homes.
I like that you're doing that! You're probably using Ai the right way (not that there is a wrong way haha, but it's the healthy way).
I love what you say about de-sensitizing. I have a feeling that even the images we produce are like 'meh' to the masses now as the masses can insta produce their own art. There's something sad about that. And I'm not sure how literate the masses are to find beauty in words anymore, and what if they are produced by AI too? But then .. all one needs to do is switch off, and the whole meta verse gives way to the beautiful loved experience of life.
