That’s a good argument. I get this. The problem that I see is that you aren’t very present in the art. The AI is 100% leading you with what it knows. AI is essentially helping you create a collage of all the styles and bits of image content on the Internet. How are we going to develope new styles? A human can use their imagination and skill to create something groundbreaking and pioneering (artists had to break ground and fill the world with this art for AI to be even able to do this). AI is just going to continue to remix remixes of remixes. It’s sad to me. That’s not really what art is about. I’m not saying AI art isn’t useful. It’s a remix machine.

Right now, a game, an album, and um… oil painted MTG Myr Tokens?

I don’t think that is a fair comparison. Electronic musicians don’t outsource song construction to an algorithm that copies all the other songs on the Internet. Even though they can use midi instruments, sequencers, and samples (which do carry a known risk of copyright violation) they’re still composing or performing.

Thank you for describing your process in such detail. I’m sorry if this is going to come off as overtly contrary; that’s such an impersonal convoluted way to make an image. There are good illustrators out there that can sketch roughs and make a beautiful finished painting in a night, all right out of their head. Frank Frazetta would be laughing in his grave at AI art.

“Oh no! My blue check!!” It’s not real and it’s not a display of power like he thinks.

During class. You made up “study time”. No one cares if your on your phone studying during “study time” in the library. But if someone is lecturing you shouldn’t be on your phone or have earbuds in.

Wrong. Get off the phone.

I started using sync a week and I don’t believe I’ve seen an ad. Also, it hasn’t asked me to pay to use it. Am I missing something?

I have two Jabras, low and high end. I really have no complaints. I listen to music at work and switch over to calls on Teams seamlessly. Good battery capacity. “Hear Through” at the click of a button. The bass is too high but that can be easily adjusted in the companion app.

Whoa. That should not be on by default. I’m all for experimental UI but I doubt many users will know what’s happening with their volume. Apps should not be remapping hardware buttons in unfamiliar ways.
