isn’t this supposed to be super easy to do with google magic eraser-type ai tools? hell i got decent at it using photoshop touch on an ipad before they killed it in 2015 (still mad)
It’s absurdly funny that a company literally tried to hire “uh yeah I just babble tags at the inscrutable machine and it makes neat looking little things don’t it” guys thinking that that’s an actual skill set. They didn’t even know how to use the tools that local AI generators have, they just gave it prompts lmao.
I think this is the biggest aspect. If you’re going to be an ai artist then digital photo manipulation is still a skill that is completely necessary.
That’s not art, it’s image manipulation. Anyone can learn to do it and it doesn’t require creative talent, you just need to know the steps to follow to achieve x y or z in photoshop with a pre-existing image.
The issue is that even the people with that skillset don’t really like AI that much. Content-aware fill being about as much AI as they wanna use. They can create nice stuff with collage snip and fitting multiple images together so they don’t really need much AI.
AI should really only be a supplemental tool for actual artists (and when it’s used that way it can be amazing!) but managers don’t want to pay actual artists, they want to replace artists with barely skilled AI curators they find on Craigslist.
