Why are AI Art generators such as Dalle2 and Midjourney so controversial?
As an artist I have experimented both with Dalle2 and Midjouney and have found these new tools fascinating, frightening and exciting. Although these are powerful tools that can be useful for artists to use, they do have some negative aspects one should take into consideration.
- Lack
of originality: Some argue that AI-generated art lacks originality and
creativity and that true art should be created solely by human effort and
skill.
- Limited
control: Some argue that AI art generators take control away from the
artist and that the final output is not truly the artist's own work.
- Intellectual
property rights: There are questions about who owns the rights to
AI-generated art and whether the artist, the AI developer, or the user has
the right to sell or profit from it.
- Bias:
AI art generators are only as unbiased as the data they are trained on,
which means that if the data is biased, the generated art will be too.
- Lack
of understanding: Some argue that the use of AI art generators can lead to
a lack of understanding of the creative process and the art itself, which
can result in a devaluation of the art.
- Fear
of replacing human artists: Some argue that the use of AI art generators
could lead to the displacement of human artists and a loss of jobs.
- Unintended
consequences: With AI art generators, it's not always clear what the
intended outcomes are and what unintended consequences might arise.
- No
emotional connection: AI art generators lack the emotional connection that
human artists have with their work, which can make the art appear less
authentic or meaningful.
It's important to note that these are general observations,
and the actual ethical implications of AI art generators will depend on the
specific tool and how it is used. The use of AI in art can be a great
opportunity for creativity enhancement and collaboration but also can lead to
ethical dilemmas.
Overall, I don't believe Ai Art is a threat since it will never produce art that has soul. In other words, each art piece that a human creates has a journey and story connected to it which increases its value and connectivity to others.
