"“Then on a time Melko assembled all his most cunning smiths and sorcerers, and of iron and flame they wrought a host of monsters such as have only at that time been seen and shall not again be till the Great End. Some were all of iron so cunningly linked that they might flow like slow rivers of metal or coil themselves around and above all obstacles before them, and these were filled in their innermost depths with the grimmest of the Orcs with scimitars and spears; others of bronze and copper were given hearts and spirits of blazing fire, and they blasted all that stood before them with the terror of their snorting or trampled whatso escaped the ardour of their breath…”"
I'm pretty sure you are smarter than AI to add that @Crni Vuk
Aetherpunk version of Silmarillion would be awesome.

That shit is getting uncanny good at this point. Give it one year and 90% of the concept artists and designers out there will become obsolete - maybe.
Eh, doubtful. AI lacks vision. It can’t get perfectly what the artist wants. If someone needs concept art for their project and goes to AI that’s just lazy and they never had a vision to begin with.

Sister, devs are using this over at Codex. It is happening. This is helping indie devs a lot. Just wait.
I hear you. And I am not saying artists will dissapear. There will still be artists out there just like now.
I just believe the business side, the way how creative work is used as product, will drastically change. A lot of concept artists, designers and illustrators say it themself that this is a game changer. And as someone who seriously considered to get in to concept art - a long time ago - I can see where they are coming from.
Of course there is also the other side that says, hey it's just another tool! This makes my job super duper better! And I can see their reasoning too. Being able to present something to a client in 10-15 min that would take you usually a whole day with researching subjects, references, styles and so on? That's awesome.
But it will also increase the presure. It will make low-entry jobs harder. Competition will become a lot more stiff and agressive. If there is one thing I learned trough the years, it's that companies, when they have the chance, put the axe on their "creative" teams first. Many see artists/creatives as dead weight already anway where they only deal with them because they absolutely have to. But if they get a chance to take I don't know, a team of 10 people and keep 2 and sending the others out? They will do it. No doubts about it. Particularly after I used Midjourney and how incredibly fucking easy and intuitive it is to use? Without ANY technical knowledge (colour theory, textures, photomanipulation etc.)? Creatives will be in a very serious position soon.
I mean I hope that I am wrong and this will not shake up the industry as I believe it will.

This is gonna help corporate run media like games and movies more than Crni Vuk. One day it will be like CGI.

Try not to catch on fire by browsing such a den of degenerates.
"People both under-estimate and over-estimate AI, mostly because they over-estimate both their own human creativity and the complexity of their job while under-estimating the complexity of "lower caste" jobs. And to a lesser extent because of hype.
For the art types I have bad news for you, but AI will replace you.
Yor job is not complex. In fact it's such an easy task that humans have been doing it for thousand of years, we learned to paint long before we learned to even farm. And after numerous millennia bilions of people have already almost exhausted all possible form of artistic expressions (dunno if it's the correct term, I have a hard time trying to translate that concept in english) and AI has access to all that data faster than any human can conceive.
AI will be more creative than most humans. It's not a matter of ifs but of when.
Also, you shouldn't take text-to-image systems as example of the creativity of machine learning as those are by definition guided systems."

You know where I believe the tech will be one day?
A voice navigated user interface without the need to put text in and image generation on-the-fly. Righ tnow, it works with the text that you send to the bot and it crawls trough the net/eather/what-ever to come back with the result which takes some time. But with better processing power (Mainly your GPU), better algorithms and more improvements, changes can be made on the spot at some point. I don't see why not. I could totally see a situation where you tell the bot that you want to change the face, hands, clothes, a new style, different background etc. Just like as if it was a real "human" artist in front of you doing everything in seconds rather than hours. And I am talking about changing details here, geting exactly the pose you want from a character or what emotions they should display. And it make tons of variations of everything, downscale it, upscale it, give you different ratios, cinematic, portrait what ever you desire.
Ai is to humans what cars are to horses.

I don't really care too much where the tech will go because we don't even have proper VR yet so we have a ways to worry about worrying about it.
Yeah, but VR sucks because it makes lots of people feel dizzy and throw up.

Essentially this world starting to feel and become more like illusion, while the virtual ones are the real. Especially made worse as people started to desperate for escapism.

That looks like some kind of revolutionary hybrid RPG. GOOD JOB CRAIYON!
Lazy. Another soulless form of media to take away your humanity. The Age of Anxiety worsens.
