Does AI-generated art posted on lemmy bother you? (lemmy.world)

I find that i can spot AI Images fairly easily these days, especially the sort of fantastical tableaus that get posted to the various AI communities around lemmy. I'm tired of seeing them; it all looks the same to me. Was wondering if im being too sensitive, or if other people are similarly bored of the constant unimaginative AI spam...

For the record, I block any explicit AI Art communities that pop up in the feed, but there are more every day...

Can someone explain to me what the difference is between AI art and students imitating an artist?

Students are people who cannot truly copy art even if they wanted to. Pius, everyone generally does art their own way because... that is the point of art.

Image generation models just copy patterns from existing images, there is no process of artistic creation, nothing to interpret, no process... AI generated images are just pretty noise.

What happens when the AI actually gains the ability to experiment "outside the box" - what we call creativity?

It cannot do that just by design. It's not a thinking thing, calling these models AI is really a misnomer and more of a marketing thing than a description of what it really is.

Unlike the creativity that is on display by humans. Which is why every adult cartoon looks nothing like Family Guy.
