"Generative AI Art" is where you use your
words to influences the creation of an image. The image that is made isn't made by you but the collaboration between your
words and the computer modal you interacted with. That
said many modals give users lots of fine controls over the result
Using Generative
AI you are not a graphic artist. You are a storyteller like a playwriter. It's your job to tell the story you want to
see by setting the scene, any dialogue and subject mater. Then be the director until the actors (generator) make the artwork we need.
While the final output is an image, video, audio, etc. it is important to remember that the role of the
Human participant is in the writing and so they are a writer. Also that the final work would not exist without the
humans input so they share partial ownership of the creation as a play write would over a live theater production.
"Generative AI Art" is crazy. I just type in "castle" and I get a medieval looking castle but when I started added details about the castle I was able to recreate that scene from our D&D session last night.
I think as "Generative AI Art" like taking a photo.
Ya I can pull out my phone in the mirror and make a duck
face but I could also hike out to a waterfall with my DSLR as
dawn and score an amazing
shot with sun rays hitting the spray in morning light.
