Artists, has AI affected your careers?
Its been a few months since the whole stable diff, chatpgt etc has started pickup up steam.
It might still be very early on but has it started affecting any of your careers in a negative way? No, it's mainly positive for us in advertising right now. Beforehand most pitch presentation were hastly thrown together with photoshopped stock images, stolen moods and quickly drawn illustrations. Our own trained stablemodel took away nearly all of the time constraints and you can now present the work how you actually want it to look and feel. That results in better briefings for directors/photographers/illustrators. Stable art is not ready yet for real high end production and I guess it will take another 3-5 years until we are there. Now we can just do what we did before,"photobashing" but in a more effective way. At present, it is mainly useful for web work for promotions where quality isn't necessary. There is a flood of AI art though that is entering Etsy space and similar. Long term this will devalue some work as there is over abundance. I think it is still too early to see significant realized impacts yet. I wrote a lot about this in further detail in case you are interested.
