alt Hacker NewsGiven that all serious artists seem to be extremely anti-AI, I strongly suspect that you may be wrong.
I've been trying Fable for coding in the past week and while it's incrementally better than Opus sometimes, what it's churning out is still far from art - and I do think it's possible for code to be art.
If you're defining "serious artists" as some approximation of "people who have made money with their art" then it's clear that there's a conflict of interest here.
Now I happen to be in the camp that believes that AI on its own isn't really capable of producing art (but like a human creating a collage, there can be art created by humans using AI... there is artistic merit in the arrangement).
I still despise that AI is going to be used to strip creators of their labour value, but that's more related to my objection to capitalism than it is to AI.
