It seems like there might be just a small vocal minority that hates AI art. Most people probably don’t care. I bet there were painters in the 1800s who talked about how people hated photographs and how they were uncanny and creepy compared to paintings.

Art without human input is pretty meaningless. It's just pretty colors, even if well executed. I guess there are people that vibe purely on kitch aesthetics. They don't have good taste ofc, but I guess from a capitalist perspective that's a market. People are confused because since the 1960s literally the CIA intervened to disrupt the transmission of meaning in art, because it was a field dominated by "subversives" w…
It's a fascinating article and trend to me. I've been rather obsessed with the amazing technology of text-to-image generation since 2017, when state of the art was an LSTM+GAN and resulted in a blurry image. Now that the technology basically works great, it's just upsetting to a lot of people. I kind of think of AI like making things out of plastic - works pretty well, but basically always resented. Notice that the a…
I also like to use AI as a sort of filter on pictures that I took. Make a photo look like a drawing, for example. It is also incredible for UI mockups and saves me a lot of work.
I think people who don’t like it genuinely don’t understand it enough to be fascinated by it or have some other issue with it that has nothing to do with the content itself

That's not to say that this same person isn't the perfect target and consumer, as far as OpenAI is concerned.

For me it's contextual. In the case of engineering presentations in particular, I'll live with some AI art if it means less reading off of fifteen-bullet-point wall-to-wall text slides. But I always prefer and appreciate non-AI art – even stock art, if employed judiciously.
If, say, a consultant or outside speaker brings in a dripping-with-AI-art slide deck to talk about AI – now that I consider the height of cringe.
