Thanks, as soon as I get a new powerful computer I will get back to Honey Select content prduction, with Full Mods and leave AI a bit apart to evolve what it clearly needs to evolveLittle Sally wrote: ↑Mon Dec 02, 2024 12:01 amAnd I say let's proclaim both of you legends!

Ridiculous!
You clearly are just a clone, confusing the memory of the original with your own

Re: 4 Years in here !!!
Well, that's a pretty fair question and I think it deserves a thoughtful and nuisanced answer. But what the hell. I'll take a crack at it anyway.Hand-Holder wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2025 10:24 pmSally, Im a DEVOTED fan of your work... I´m curious, what is your take on AI ? Or you haven´t thought much about it yet ???
First, I think we need to consider visual images generated by "AI" and text generated by "AI" as separate topics. It is my understanding that the software currently being touted as AI has absolutely nothing to with artificial intelligence; e.g. self-educating/ machine learning such as a neutral network.
Broadly, Generative AI is:
1) a lexical analyzer that can read your prompt and more or less decipher what you asking for.
2) a search engine that can search for images that contain visual elements that have been identified by the lexical analyzer (see 1 above)
3) image editing software that combines selected elements from the images gathered by the search engine ( see 2 ) and applies effects and modifications to these elements based on the prompt.
There probably is some elements of machine learning going on as egregious mistakes in seen in the rejected images seem to appear less and less frequently; e.g. they appear to understand how hands work a little bit better. And they do a decent job of changing the visual elements enough to avoid copyright infringement.
Text generative software is great for drafting the executive summary for the 400 page report that you just wrote. For creative writing, it sucks ass. I will die on that hill.
With that said, I have seen a few images that really did impress me. It can produce some stunning effects.
My concern is the cost. Writing a text prompt for an AI does not make you an artist. A text prompt is not controlling the media in the way an artist does. The AI takes someone else's work, copies it and changes it enough to keep your ass from being sued
In the end, I fear it's very likely that AI images may ultimately make it impossible for artists and authors to make a living. Then where will we be, when there's nothing new to steal? Look how awful movies and TV scripts and visual effect have become recently. It's not an accident.
But no, I suppose I really haven't thought very much about it.
