This is beautiful art bomb to drop. Yeah. Can't rightly predict how everything with AI art will shake out. Will it get regulated and reduced to specific use cases? Will art fans seek a literal art-churning machine? Time will tell. Personally, I feel more appreciation and awareness for how much goes into the art pieces I see. For so long, I've been admiring and searching for quantity but quality is becoming more important to me now. Rather than save every image of every character I like in a Booru, spending more time taking in the works of my favorite artists feels more worthwhile. I hope you and your fans keep making a place for yourselves. For as short a time as I've been here, hearing your thoughts and feelings towards these pieces have elevated them at many times. Anyway, those are just my thoughts. Here's wishing you well where you are.

No matter how good AI art gets I’ll still be looking for your posts, because when an artist like you draws there’s a personally behind it

AI won't replace art. The tech we're seeing now is the tech that's been in private development for years and it hasn't improved much, it's just become possible for normal people to use it due to cloud computing and advancements in computer hardware and software. For it to improve much beyond what it is now, we'll need substantial advancements in AI that we're not likely to see for a long time. Also, there's a lot of legal issues with it (since it works by using people's art without their permission to make the AI generate images) that will be challenged if it ever does start to affect people's incomes, and the general sentiment on art sites is outright banning it (fortunately). Currently, at least, it seems to suck at consistency anyway.

Even if AI replaced artists in a commercial sense, it's still a nice hobby. I personally enjoy it and don't intend to use it for income, but I still intend to study and improve my skills just cause it makes me happy.

I'm not sure what to think of AI art. In many ways it's come a long way very quickly. But like a lot of new technologies, we don't really know how they'll be used in the future or how close or far we really are to solving the 'problem' of creativity and art creation and replacing artists. If you believed the hype 10 years ago we'd all be in self driving cars by this point. And we're no where near close to that being a reality. Early progress can often be really quick as you tackle the big problems. But then you encounter all the details and edge cases, and specifics, and getting from there to 100% is what takes the longest time. So I'm not sure I'd be so pessimistic.

Your streams we're pretty enjoyable not gonna lie
