@KiwiFarmsArkavel I love researching :3 I knew a decent amount of the info regarding AI but I did have to research for some of my analogy's I used I only know so much about history

@VGMoose Adobe, Mitsua, and Laion (Laion doesn't anymore though, but did for awhile) these are the only ones I've researched in the past cause of stocks they all only use public domains. Other models are trained to use only licensed content. The theory has already been made with multiple companies and the only AI art jobs that are being taken are low executive jobs for things like video games or general production. They take what some may consider a job. However, no jobs are lost, because the same person has to think of the prompt, and after they spend hours polishing, adjusting, and if it's disliked, it's tossed, there's more room for error, so they actually need more lower executive jobs, so more jobs are being created however AI art is still only a single digit billion wise it will never grow up to an over 50 billion possibly a 70 billion because people won't let that happen it's thought that it'll reach 40 billion by 2033 if it keeps growing the way it is. It's highly unlikely though, because it's only grown this fast because it is new technology. Same thing with phones, Bluetooth, electricity, the railroads. Whenever something new comes out, they predict it's going to be the biggest thing, and they always get huge. Yes, but they almost always overestimate it. Railroads, for example, during the "Railway Mania", people believed it would be hundreds of millions of dollars. While it is not worth that much, they always over estimate how much wealth actually will come with it. Which is because it's new tech it's the "Coolest thing" of the time. It might be it now because it's what keeps the world running to some extent. Phone's or AI. That's not something that is going to improve the economy and life tenfold. They've always overestimated how much it brings. AI may reach 40 billion eventually. Even if they reach it, art will still be a good 20 to 30 billion, and as AI art grows, more artists will show up improving art's wealth too. Human-made Art is not going extinct nor will it ever. The world has seen it time and time again. (This is my opinion plus research and facts, so while it is true people can still hate AI, I'm just giving as many of the facts as I can.)

@KiwiFarmsArkavel maybe so but that's not the AI's fault I do agree with that a lot of people's reading and writing comprehension does lessen when they continuously use it especially at a young age does decrease comprehension especially in the younger age. Blaming AI for it all is wrong. Comprehension has been falling for years since Covid cause many younger kids didn't get a good comprehension of everything me included I went from straight A's never failed a single question it was all easy pandemic hit I fell down to D's and F's and I'm still not fully caught up I was younger then but it just keeps declining the pandemic destroyed most learning comprehension for many people. While Covid is a attribute it can't be fully blamed as using AI is a choice. It's also the teachers 85% of teachers use AI which for some teachers heavily affects how they teach cause either they rely or they don't plus there a world wide teacher shortage which has destroyed the percentage of well. AI might not be helping necessarily but it's not a specific reason it's all dropping they all chose to use it

@st4tic whos derailing it?

@KiwiFarmsArkavel I see the idea... but not for me :sob:

@Biblecampvictim 😭😭😭😭

@Biblecampvictim I never said I'm supporting it I just love the way he formatted it

@st4tic me

@KiwiFarmsArkavel so

@KiwiFarmsArkavel 😭😭 9

@I_eat_sharpie it was a lot longer process back then

@SSL98071 I hate that this is peak

@I_eat_sharpie when I first ever joined it took me over 2-3 days for everything to be done -w-

@bunnykek I'm bad at shortening so no I can't -w- Sorry I would if I could essentially I just gave the definition of art statistics that show AI art will never take over the real art industry but I don't believe it should be overlooked cause of miscellaneous things I mentioned (this is as short as I could make it if I add any more information it gets 20 more lines) sorry

@sweetgirl ah- I take a tea bag rinse out a school milk carton leave a tea bag in for awhile then enjoy -w- sometimes I use the school microwave

@sweetgirl I agree however you contradict yourself art is exactly that appreciation art is a form of creation something creative art isn't chained down when you look at AI art you don't feel the same way you know it's not real but you can appreciate the fact someone took time to make the prompt which some are highly detailed cause of it. Art is a act of creative activity the person who made the prompt especially if the photos original you can respect the time they put into it depending on the detail of the photo. You said art is to feel something you still feel things with AI art maybe not you specifically but others can it's not the same feeling of this person took hours to make this took him years to master Appreciation of whatever is being shown is the definition of Art. It's just how you feel when looking at it changes. You don't appreciate the AI who made it you appreciate the photo the men who built the AI so the possibility to create it is possible and you appreciate whatever site uses it whatever site pays for the AI and you appreciate the man who had to think or a original idea for the AI to physically create the photo AI art is called AI art cause it was made by AI doesn't mean when you appreciate it your appreciating the AI. Also to destroy your last bit AI art isn't shadowing everything in 2024 AI art reached it's record appreciation it's record high cost $3.2 billion in 2024 in 2022? art was 67.4 billion which is about a 2,200% cost difference it's predicted AI art will (possibly) reach 40 billion by 2033 art isn't just going to drop off recently we've seen art drop to roughly 50 billion why? A reset paintings worth 50 million nowadays? nothing not because of AI because of the end drop 2008 art dropped to record lows 20 billion the average art high back then globally was about 40 to 50 billion if they were lucky after it skyrocketed to 60 billion 2015 they had another reset and high end drop we dropped to 50 billion and after it we flew up to 64 billion right now we're having another reset which they're hoping when this ends it'll be in the 70 billion dollar industry's maybe 80 with how it's looking AI art will never compare to handmade art that is a known fact I know it my family knows it my friends know it. However I don't believe that means that AI can't make art art is a act of creativity someone had to be creative at the end of the day to make AI art whether it be whoever made the AI whoever made the site or whoever made the prompt someone had to be creative and a act of appreciation/creativeness is the textbook definition of art I understand a lot of people dislike it and that's fine I just don't think it should be considered as not art that feels to disclosed personally (Hint the word personally) Again I'm not trying to argue I genuinely like convo's like this cause I love learning and typing plus it helps me learn how to research better. :3

@Nared Those are pretty much mine as well besides the family I'm actually distancing myself (not by choice) just cause I'm busy I help them out more I just have less full length conversations

@saphirecrown1 I can not discuss it here

y'all ever drink cold tea -w-
