This is a true triumph of the human spirit.

As much as I like this post, it ain't true for digital 3d artists. While you can lay down some objects and stuff, it's still extremely limited.

What are the limitations? Not trying to start a fight, just wondering what’s on your mind that couldn’t be made in diorama form

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

True it could be made into diorama form, that would require a different set of skill to pull off, something you'll need to learn more in depth than just picking up a pencil

Are 3d artists the same thing as AI bros?

No, they are not.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No of course. I'm just saying the post doesn't cover all of the digital artists that aren't shitty

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It doesn't need to, because the post is only about AI 'artists', not digital artists.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No no, it's on point. All the digital artists should be covered. They could claim that if 3d artists can't do art without a computer, then according to this post, they shouldn't be called artists too.

Digital 3d artists can generally also do physical sculptures because one is just a digital version of the other. They still understand how shapes in a 3d environment work, and how sizes and proportions work. All they need is a little clay.

People who do colors and textures digitally also understand how they work in the real world. They might be better using digitsl topls, but artists understand the process and can work with multiple mediums just by applying the same processes.

AI 'artists' use word prompts, which does not translate into the real world.

Among other criticisms, "using technology" does not mean something is "digital". The example on the rock seems to be analog from everything in the post above.

You could absolutely use AI to make art. Almost all AI content you find online isn't that though

If you take away an artist's brushes, they can't make art without making new brushes.

All this example shows is that brushes are easier to make yourself than a LLM is.

I don't like AI art, but I don't think this particular argument proves anything meaningful.
