Bitcoin art created by AI {gallery} ... and the satoshi portrait as well.

Why? How can them sue? For example, Dalle2,doesn’t permit generating images with celebrities, while Midjourney and Stable diffusion allows that.

I have serious doubt about the fact they copyrighted material must not be included in the training set of an AI.

the chances of getting sued are probably very small but they do exist. also keep in mind just because you get sued doesn't mean you are guilty. but it does make for a possible pain in the ass.

I am no legal expert here, but I bet ToC agreement are pretty clear about what you can, and cannot do with these softwares. Also not to be excluded the celebrity could sue the “software” (whatever it means) instead of the users (I have seen crazy things lately on this…).

And, yeas, being sued is a pain in the ass, and not a cheap one.

You could easily sell this as NFTs and given the aesthetics of NFT market, I think that this is in the right spot where it looks good but at the same time it's profitable. This is the first time I've heard of Midjourney, I'm more familiar with Dall-E with it's captcha like image generation format.

NFT market is going to be swept by this innovation. A LOT of the current NFT market is just a bunch of auto-generated jpg’s with random permutations of standard parts.
I can see an AI NFT generator doing permutation of standard prompts (words used to generate images).

I generally see no use case of the NFTs except for the game industry, or some small groups of collectors. Those projects who were issued back in 2017/18 could be only for collectors interest but everything else is just a bullshit speculations riding the wave, like the ICOs shitshow back in 2017/18.
I doubt that 1% of all those ICOs from back them actually exists.
It was just a scammer's machine to print money. Same here.. everyone is pushing "metaverse" as a real future, but everything is just to fool some lost souls.
Many were addicted to Second Life, the game. It was interesting, but after a few years it lost the momentum.

This is acutally good for art in general. Artists protest that art created by AI is not art, and to some extent, I agree (if we consider the emotional aspect of art) but it's in no way a threat to human artists. In fact, it puts more value on human made art. Also, for years there has been generic "art" made by people that is in no way more "artistic" than the AI made.

You might be right:

In the end, digital photography, where everyone makes thousands of photographs every months, put an end to artistic photography? No.
The artistic value remains intact.

So the artistic value of an human made painting couldn’t be challenged by thousands of artistic valuable AI generated paintings.

Unfortunately, I have to disagree with that... Such things give an unfair advantage to some of the so-called artists while it makes "true artists" suffer in multiple ways ^{[e.g. time-based competitions]} and it's worth noting that someone already took advantage of Midjourney by entering in a competition ^{[I don't think it's going to end in there]}: An AI-Generated Artwork Won First Place at a State Fair Fine Arts Competition, and Artists Are Pissed

I agree with that.
Limiting the discussion to “competitions” (might also be true for paintings on commission), it also might be easier to master the use of AI than master the painting technique. Unfair advantage.

Interesting to see more and more of these. I even read that one AI art won a contest submitted as a prank, and made a lot of people angry.

To be fair, NFT art and so-called AI generated art with NFTs really made people go crazy over it and I didn't get it at the time, but I guess I never got art in the first place.

Seems a bit sad for me to see Bitcoin art like this though. No meaning behind it, just an algorithm.

I agree with that.

Exactly! Not only for competitions though, but also for digital artists who spent thousands of hours just to get a corporate job. And I fear that there will come a time where companies would rather pay an artist who can create a piece that's close to being a "masterwork" within minutes than commissioning an artist who will create a piece of artwork in a month.

Unfortunately, based on my experience in life, those who cheat they succeed in life. (look at all the politics for instance). Life isn't fair and many artists will suffer if they do not adopt the new technique in the future. If you create art for business, this will be the main tool to use, but the prices for the work done will be lower and the real artists will be affected because
- First, there not so much work do be done after a piece is generated for 1-2 min.
- Second, more and more "artists" emerge and will use the AI and just make the final touches in chasing the quick money. If you generate an artwork for 2 min. and use 1-2 hours to final touch it, for sure you can lower the price below the one the avarage artist which will use at least a week to do the same art piece and he will expect to get a good return for the time he has invested in his work.
The AI is great, but there will be consequences for some people.

Other people may seem to view A.I as a tool that will aid artists to do their job more efficiently especially to those who are veteran in the field, which will make them stand out among others, but as a young artist this thing creeps me out, and there's this feeling that anytime soon, when computer became more sentient, artist like me can be easily replaced

[anclo900000]

With the quality of the art and the speed to generate the image after the request (approx 1-2 min depending on the server load) I can see that soon the digital artists will be replaced by AI.
You can send a request with a description and voilà, you get your piece done in 1-2 min, in addition you get a few different versions you can choose from.
