A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

this is clear proof that AI art is soulless and real artists will always outperform AI
It's proof of nothing really. Just because a drawn picture won once means squat. Also, AI can be used alongside drawing - for references for instance. It's a tool like any other. Once you start using it in shit ways, it results in shit art. Not to say it doesn"t have room to improve tho
Also, imagine if the situation were reversed and an AI drawing was entered instead to a drawing contest. People would be livid, instead of celebrating breaking the rules.
The only people I've ever heard say AI is good for "references" are people who aren't artists.
Because AI makes for LOUSY references. (Unless your art style specifically involves clothing pieces melding into each other without rhyme or reasons and cthonic horrors for hands and limbs.)
