Nah, it wasn't projecting. It was smug superiority. They really bought into their bullshit about how they were a class of their own because of cReAtIvItY. Meanwhile, they're hard at work creating generic DEI slop #4712 with pastel colors and approved body types A and B.
True enough, because logically speaking, if you can automate and use AI to do the job of 20 factory workers, you're still going to want those factory workers around for if the machine fucks up as that is always a danger and they have the experience to possibly improve the process with said machines.
The western artists have shown themselves how generic the slop they make that they can't even tell what a woman is so AI is already surpassing them.
That's a big part of it I think. And the Hollywood writer's strike tied into it. If someone is doing good work then even if the AI stuff is cheaper there's arguments to be made for keeping the person. But, a lot of the writers and artists these days just keep pitching misses (and wide misses at that) over and over. If you're already failing over and over then there's no excuse to not replace you with a machine that does the job faster, cheaper and better.
Pretty good idea for a comedy sketch. A writers room keeps pitching the same premise (black, lesbian, trans) and a head writer keeps shooting it down. The writers get increasingly agitated as pitch after pitch is shot down, even though they’re all the same.
The difference between AI and artists is control.
Doing it yourself gives you more control but AI is faster.
For now at least. AI looked very different last year and it will look different again this year. What you can find today is the worst it is ever gonna look from now on and AI art will probably be best used by artists who know their shit, yet it can also be used by amateurs to make something good looking. The people who cry about AI WILL be left behind sooner rather than later.
