leena norms | AI art won’t replace artists. Here's why. @leenanorms | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Self portraits have gone robot, did you hear? AI image apps like Lensa, Luminar and artsio that create “magic avatars” have been all over social media recently, but are they stealing from artists or doing what the inspired human brain does, just faster?

NY times article I quote from:
'What makes the new breed of A.I. tools different, some critics believe, is not just that they’re capable of producing beautiful works of art with minimal effort. It’s how they work. Apps like DALL-E 2 and Midjourney are built by scraping millions of images from the open web, then teaching algorithms to recognize patterns and relationships in those images and generate new ones in the same style. That means that artists who upload their works to the internet may be unwittingly helping to train their algorithmic competitors.’
