[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 9271421, member: 4937"] AI is so bad right now that if your job is in danger of being replaced by AI, either the job never generated much value or you aren't very good at your job. After the initial "gosh wow" of AI wears off, it's flaws really show. The only people who are (or should) be using AI are people who couldn't afford human art in the first place. But at some level this is like painters being afraid they are going to be replaced by photographers or photographers being afraid that the digital camera makes them obsolete. There is a limited way in which those fears are realistic, but the jobs are still around it's just that photos are no longer something so expensive and inaccessible that only the rich can afford them. And if you really were getting paid to do the sort of scut work that AI can do, well, generate images with AI, touch them up and hold down more jobs with less effort than before. Meanwhile, I'll be trying to get image generators to generate serviceable gaming illustrations that don't look anything like what I'm imagining in my head simply because I am not an artist and don't have money to indulge in human art. Heck, I have a whole campaign I worked up currently on the shelf because I can't do the art for it or at least, find it too much like work to learn how. [/QUOTE]
