July 17 2023 - AI Generated Art

 

I read a blog post from Sebastian Michaels cautioning about AI Art.  He showed the images below that were generated by AI Art based on the single term “woman”.  I took those images and searched the Google image feature which looks for similar images.  And that got me to AI Art - the website selling AI Generated Art.  And there were more like the ones below.  All kinds of art.  Even an AI Art Generator for us to use.  Their proprietary AI algorithms have carefully selected and managed images by their team of art experts.   Will we all be intermixed on Fine Art America?  Real people works of art and AI generated art?  Will I say in my profile “I am a real person.”  How might I prove this?  How curious it seems. Here are the AI generated images below.

How did the AI software get to choosing this version/interpretation? It seems to me that there is a a gathering of collective intelligence.  If one is scanning all the literature or pictures and then creating from that wealth of infomation, then won’t a dominant view prevail?  I don’t know how artificial intelligence assembles the result.  I know this seems a strange interpretation of “woman.” Here’s a retrieval of images that match the AI-Generated one on the left.  Ever so similar - which is by a real artist and which isn’t?  So on we go to the picture of the day - a collage of images from the Design competition in the Lily Show.   Read more daily posts here: marilyncornwellblogspot.com Purchase works here: Fine Art America- marilyncornwell.com Redbubble - marilyncornwellart.ca
