My biggest pet peeve is AI recipes. 🤢

[orphanedinstoryville]

I run a blog where I share paintings I like. For the past few months there’s been a certain type of grifter popping up in my feed using bots to share AI art with the name of a “painter” at the bottom. I’ve been slowly keeping track of these types and filtering them from my feed and I just thought I’d name and shame them here so you can do the same.

Pass this list on, help block their definitionally derivative “art” help me add any more of these to my list of names to filter

The problem I have with these isn’t even a philosophical one about wether or not AI images are art (although they aren’t) or an ethical one about how they are autogenerating the same image over to sell cheap prints to people who don’t know any better. (Although it is definitely unethical) My problem isn’t an economic one that they’re taking revenue away from working artists. (Although they definitely are and I hate that too.)

No, my problem is just a simple aesthetic one. Their art sucks and I hate seeing it. I like looking at paintings because the more I look the more I see. With a real painting you get a first impression after a split second and then look deeper, the painting directs your attention around the page, you notice background details, brush strokes, you can see the story the painter was trying to tell, guess at their mood as you see how every little detail adds up, the more you look the more you see the humanity.

With AI it’s the opposite. It’s all first glance. (And some of these are legitimately nice on the first glance) but then the closer you look the less human it gets. The faces are all the same. you can’t tell if it’s an oil painting or a print or a photograph. Clothing details become background details, background details look impossible. Hair strands move like some lovecraftian monstrosity. Instead of brush strokes and ink blots it resolves to little bacterial strands of randomly generated noise. It’s not just bad art, it’s the opposite of art, the closer you look the more alien it becomes.

I hate it just because every time I see one it’s one less real painting I get to see so I’m blocking them all and I’m blocking any blog I see them on.

What's with fake artists' accounts PMing in FFnet offering to draw art commissions on the pretext of loving our stories? Does it look like I have money, Helena 8778?
