I love drawing so much but the presence of so many AI art generators is hurting my sanity.
If it helps, i would never enjoy art made by AI. A huge (arguably, one of the biggest) tenets of all art for me, is the love, effort or creator themselves poured into it.
For example, i absolutely love and adore MASTERBOOTRECORD and i think an AI would never be able to recreate victor's love and sweat poured into his projects.
Same thing with beautiful art. Art is meant to represent a message, and when you look at a work, you see its message. AI does not care about the messaging and undertones of art, it just paints pixels on a canvas, following instructions lifelessly.
I think most are wrong about art, it can never be created by an AI. At least, i wouldn't enjoy it at all. It's just machines following orders but not really thinking about what they do, or making it from the heart.
