Comment on Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder [TWIV]
Vodulas@beehaw.org 2 days agoDid you read the whole thing, or even like halfway? Multiple concept artists are quoted in the article saying it makes their lives more difficult. You know, more work in the bad way. The thesis of the article is that it makes the job harder, makes for a less than unique art style, and potentially fewer jobs for artists.
Unless you actually meant “more work” in the bad way, of course. If so, sorry for the rant

Yes, it is creating a change and a change creates many pain points. The same old story of leadership bullshit ideas vs how the work actually gets done is something that will have to be addressed no matter what.
Pandora’s box is open and will never close again. The perception of executive leadership is that it eliminates work, because they have no idea how the sausage is made now, even if they were artists for decades before becoming executives.
Any company that fires their artists today is gonna be hiring all those positions again anyway

Yes…but this Pandora’s box just had a fart in it.
We know we can’t put the fart back in the box.
We just want people to stop acting like it is about to revolutionize modern cinema.
All it is going to do is clear the room.

It is absolutely astounding how far executives are removed from workflows. And they only want so much automation, lest they can no longer justify being so top-heavy.
