Accept it quietly shitty plebeian and back to work. Don’t think, just work
I wasn’t invested in Adobe anyway but - okay, bye!
Would hate to be “left behind” in expressing myself?
I know he means exploited workers making Kellogg’s ads or something, but it’s such gremlin mind to think this way about art.
correction: artists need to embrace generative ai or leave adobe behind.
God I can’t wait for this AI bullshit to be done with. It’s so much more annoying than crypto.
I don’t think it’s going anywhere. They may hit a wall with GenAI and it’ll calm down for a while but the possible upsides of AGI are way too vast for people to suddenly just stop caring about.
Also, I’d say that 90% of ‘AI bullshit’ is people hate-posting about it on social media. Like the thread we’re in right now.
my prediction is that the existing AI products won’t stop but the trend of adding AI into everything will stop. There’s a cool Wikipedia page about the repeated ups and downs of AI hype cycles. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter
These executives of large companies are so out of touch.
They aren’t wrong in this case.
Artists don’t need to use genAI in all their works, but they will need to know how to use it.
I just made the jump from Adobe to Serif Affinity Designer, Photo, and Publisher.
So that’s killed Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign for me.
And I moved to DaVinci from Premiere.
Only tool left is Audition which I’ve found hard to replace (specifically features like the spectral frequency display and the easy ways to cut out very specific frequencies visually).
Fuck Adobe.
I think he’s kinda right. The market for paintings and other analogue art massively shrunk with the invention of photography and then digital art, but it still exists.
We’ll probably see something similar with “organic” digital art.
