solseb: Any opinion on the subject is welcome.
vv221: You asked for it ;)
My opinion is that it is abuse to call these software "creator" of anything as they are only able to mash up together things from their database, without any kind of original creation.
Given a choice, I would rather play a text-only game than one using AI-generated illustrations.
I had a feeling any mention of AI would bring up the controversial issue of creative rights and job employment.
Because the implied meaning is that Graphics designers are the ones worthy to be called as "creators," not some computer analytic software.
And if we take AI as creators, then what will happen to those graphic designers?
Their work and jobs are stolen!
Personally, I can say I will never draw well as those graphic designers.
I have zero artistic talent. Nada, absolute zero.
But with AI, what was impossible was made possible.
It helped me illustrate a story I wrote ages ago, something I longed to do but cannot given my lack of talent.
Without AI, am I going to spend thousands of dollars hiring a graphics designer to help me draw out my novel, then another thousand for someone to edit and create an animation with it? Yes, I would.
But it must be after decades when I finally retire before I have that extra cash to finance such a project.
I'm not supporting either side, but am objectively sharing the pros and cons for either side.
Just my two cents..
