Branding detail: The expression "OpenArt" sounds like a good fit for true art, as opposed to a form of synthetic visual production of visual arts mimicking art. In a way is hijacking the notion of arts out of humanity. Any philosophers around to help us with this?

First define "true art" and we'll start there
From my naivety, if art started as a form of human expression, purely synthetically produced expressions are the antithesis of art. We can discuss what that is instead.

> I'm having a hard time seeing how increasingly better and freely available AI artwork doesn't just completely replace artists I agree that AI engines like DALL-E seem like a threat to many commercial artists, especially those whose name and personality are not closely associated with their works. Magazine illustrators are one example. For some artists, though, the artist’s status as a human being with a unique iden…

Since when "speeding up" is a marker of quality? I see someone writing prompts, not drawing or painting at all:) So exciting. Right? Hey Michelangelo, you are deadly slow, we will give you this speedup brush to meet the Quarterly Report requirements from the Pope. If you don't comply, the local bard will describe with words better than you. From the comment section of your post: > MAH1RO 2 weeks ago To be honest: Thi…
There are tons of artists who value speed even without managers or deadlines. I can see animators making great use of AI to: 1. Quickly create storyboards that convey the mood and style of the scenes 2. Sketch out rough ideas for characters, environments 3. Generate the in-between frames of animations AI will be used as a tool, it's the artists job to judge the output, guide it, and tweak it as necessary. Just like a…

I can imagine a future that the artist could "license" Dalle-2 to generate art in their style and they actually get some commission for it. Like the AI can work as the artist's assistant to produce art at scale while she gets benefits too if it makes sense.
Even in that case, how would you decide which artists get the commission and which do not? They can't possibly track down authors of millions of artworks across the globe they scrapped when training the model. It seems to me that paying commissions to anyone would just mean that they acknowledge the questionable copyright status of the artworks produced by Dall-e.

This is a great idea. We are clearly on the cusp of something with AI and art. This will be a great supporting application to push it forward.
