      i kinda think thats what makes art “art” in the first place. art to me is the intentional expression or evocation of emotion through a medium

        Ideally, art should express something that words can not.

        Writing a prompt using words to describe what art to generate is missing the point.

          would consider text a form of art. literature.

          If you can make a compelling thing to read in a couple sentences, that’s great.

          If you use it as a prompt to write a book, then I rather read the original 2 sentences than waste time with a book that can be summarized in 2 sentences.

            Yes, poetry can be art too, but that’s because the use of the words creates meaningful associations to something that expresses more than the words themselves describe.

            AI reads the prompt the same way that we read poetry and then delivers its attempts to describe the associations that it learned. At best, AI could recreate the role of a really obnoxious poetry critic, but it will never be the artist.

            I reckon, the medium of literature is probably more like the author or reader’s (shared?) imagination, the words are just the chisel used to shape what you imagine, and if it works you get something like the experience they wanted.

            The ai can copy the tools, but does it think about how it is shaping your imagination with them? I doubt, probably not current LLMs, only in as far as they might choose to plagiarise work of someone who had some vision, but how can we know?

            I mean, that’s basically what Shakespeare did with his monkey farm, isn’t it? Or did he sell that to Jorge Luis Borges to fill the worlds most useless library?

            Same is probably true of an art photograph, you’d think flock, or google street cams , or anpr cams would create loads of art photos. But they’re not aiming to captures something extra that isn’t technically in the image (feelings, mood, , culture ) but that the audience can read into it, based on style, lighting , colouring or context.

      Good time to mention the movie on the right was made by a mother son duo on like no money. They couldn’t even make posters for theaters but this just started a trend of theaters drawing their own amateur posters for the showings.

      A raw example of people creating just for creation’s sake.

      I think there’s plenty of cases where neuron activation is a product of pure a aesthetic experience. I think the wrong idea here isn’t that AI can make art, but that art is the only form of media humans desire.

    So bad it’s art. Cog suckers don’t understand that the flaws in the animation makes it more human. I wish I could buy it legally, it’s a great movie!

    People will watch slop-like content with poor production value because at least there is intent and purpose.

    Left is a hallucination within a dream that you quickly forget after waking up.

    Right is a sleep paralysis demon that haunts you on and off for the rest of your life.

      After watching this, I am more convinced than ever that cultures all have same the qualities.

      Chinese audiences celebrating it’s so bad it’s good of Niu La is the same as American audiences doing the same thing with the Room.

    I found an article and was gonna quote it to talk about the 100 or so people over two years trying this and then quoting how they were hoping for a blockbuster to spawn more and then joke about how far it fell.

    However I noticed at the bottom of the article it disclosed that it was written with AI … so, bleh.

    Judging by that pic, Niu Lai looks like having a lot of potential as a cult movie for stoners.

    The original release of 牛来 did not do well, but Chinese netizens discovered it was created by a mother/son duo and rallied behind it. This lead to releases in more theaters and people watching it for support even though it is… not a good movie.

    When a human makes garbage, it’s entertaining because we (or at least I) acknowledge that as part of being human, we make mistakes, interpret thungs differently, and have our own flaws. When a computer makes garbage, that’s just what it does. I would much rather every new movie to ever be created be The Room, Troll 2, Birdemic, and every other bad movie than get AI movies.

    Hey, some light sci-fi movie on some time travel, astronaut came to ancient civilisations to rescue humanity or something plot: I’d be even up for that. But that AI slop makes my eyes bleed and if the visuals are anything to go by probably the whole story is slopped as well. Isn’t it?
