Honestly I think that it’s models like these that output things that could be called art.
Whenever a model is actually good, it just creates pretty pictures that would have otherwise been painted by a human, whereas this actually creates something unique and novel. Just like real art almost always ilicits some kind of emotion, so too do the products of models like these and I think that that’s much more interesting that having another generic AI postcard.
Not that I’m happy to see how much SD has fallen though.
It would be great if the model could produce this beautifully disfigured stuff when the user asked it to. But if it can’t follow the user’s prompts reasonably, then it’s pretty useless as a tool
I can see an argument for artists choosing to use chaotic processes they can’t really control.
Setting up a canvas and paints and brushes in a particular arrangement in the woods, and letting migratory animals and weather put their mark on the work, and then see what results. That could be art.
And if that can be art, then I guess chaotic, unpredictable AI models can output something that can be art, too.
