I do lots of writing for work but feel pretty safe. Most of the work involves site specific contextual analysis of planning legislation. An LLM could likely summarize urban planning laws, but applying them to a specific site in a way that creates value for a specific client is not something it can do right now. Legislative environments arent as neat and tidy as people would like to think they are either. There are overlaps, inconsistencies, internal policy positions, errors, supplementary material , dated neighbouthood plans, etc. It also cant read architectural plans, apply relevant legislation, and find efficiencies in line with a client brief. This is even more true for non architect clients who will say vague poo poo like "I want the entrance to look modern".

Dr. Quarex posted:I only believe the current crop of AI is going to change the world because our standards are becoming irrelevant. The Turing Test was not a sufficient test for AI given how many people can be fooled by our current models, and our collective threshold for what looks or reads good enough to pass muster was probably already dropping and is only getting dramatically worse; people posting in this thread might find AI-generated images laughably bad but like, possibly the majority do not even notice they are AI-generated, especially if kept to a reasonable subject. And most people are not literate enough to appreciate what good writing even looks like. "Ive used an AI to condense Gravitys Rainbow into a concise novella and remove esoteric jargon. The book is now 90 pages and reads like a YA sci-fi novel. In many ways, this is a better product. Furthermore..."

Just zero understanding of anything creative beyond its immediate utility to their specific, pedestrian desires. Honorary mention for people who misunderstand fashion runway shows.

Oh its 100% satire. However, there are people who have indeed pushed the idea of NFTs as art. There is vested interest in pushing AI "art" as legitimate. I remember the Slurp Juice Ape guy saying "you cant deny the art is awesome" or something.

The Moon Monster posted:I like abstract art but I went to a big Rothko exhibit a few days ago and I was only like 40% feelin' it, to be honest. I'm more of Mondrian boy, the thing you have to realize is that he was working before MSPaint was invented. Ugh (the wonky eye anime e-girl, not your takes on art, which are great). Jealous that you got to go to a Rothko exhibit. I used him as an example specifically because I love his work and philosophy but also because hes sort of a classic target of the "my kid could do that" crowd..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9InAbpM7mU you mean this really spooky one about the woman who keeps appearing in AI art? "She inputs the last name of the actor Marlon Brando, a prompt that will surely push the limits of the A.I." - this line made me LOL. imho this sort of thing undeniably well done and is entertaining and spooky but only contributes to the illusion that AI image generation tools are "thinking" and you've got people in the comments who've now anthropomorphized a (crappy) image of a woman into a real life AI bogeyman. He's really pushing the narrative that there is this "one specific face" that the AI keeps generating but the images, whilst sometimes similar, are pretty wildly different. He describes his own slideshow as "Anomalies" but shows himself typing "REALLY SPOOKY PICTURES" into stable diffusion. Its very good modern horror, though.

vudan posted:Rothko is such wank. You too can in fact make evocative squares to sit in a corporate foyer. Mondrian was the square guy. Rothko never painted a "square". He built a public chapel in Houston full of his art meant to be a meditative and welcoming space for all religions. But yes. "Squares".

vudan posted:Looks like a bunch of fuzzy squares to me. But I did not know that about the public chapel that's kind of neat I suppose. And Moby Dick is a book about a whale. Do yourself a favour and see some of his works in person. Typing "Rothko" into GIS gives you an idea of what his paintings look like, but doesnt really convey the feeling of them. I know this seems wanky but its sort of his whole thing. He set out to paint emotions, with the purpose of creating a greater understanding and empathy between people. Its incredibly ambitious but he succeeded , despite his paintings not assuming recognizable forms. And it wasnt by mistake. He employed innovative techniques to modify the properties of his paints and create finely layered textures and depth. This is why people describe his paintings as seeming alive. He didnt just apply a single color to a canvas and be done with it. None of this will come through on a phone screen or monitor. Hes also a tragic figure because he was depressed, and took his own life. Someone who was so dedicated to deepening our understanding of each other and was at the same time so disturbed and distressed. He couldnt make himself better but still tried to do for others. If thats not moving on some level, well, then I dont really know what to say. Finally, I get that the aesthetic has been co-opted by corporate spaces for being relatively inoffensive. Corporate offices also have Banksy prints or those horrible graffiti monkey wearing a crown "street art" paintings. This isnt the fault of the artist and divorces the work from its context and intention. Not to get all Marxist, but capital subsuming art is nothing new. This shouldnt be a criticism of the artist. Personally, i love the aesthetic for its simplicity, depth, and richness. I understand that its not for everyone and thats fine.

A Wizard of Goatse posted:Nor with Green and Tangerine on Red, it is legit beautiful one-on-one in a well-curated space. It's also very easy to see how someone could be in its presence and not become an instant convert to the transformative power of Art, and notable that nobody gets like this about any of the thousands of contemporary living artists working in the same techniques and ideas, producing near-identical paintings for 60 years. Cause it's not really about the painting at all, is it? I mentioned Rothko because hes an almost universally recogized painter and a good jumping off point for a discussion around folks who devalue art, music, fashion, food, etc. People 100% "get like that" about other artists. Patricia Picaninni's "Curious Affection" got my mai waife and I right in the feels when we saw it last year. A Wizard of Goatse posted:when exactly did the Rothko chapel become the Infinite Jest of guys who wanna be perceived as aesthetes, do you think? Wtf does this mean lol? Its not about wanting to be "viewed as an asthete" or whatever on the something awful dot com forums. If I had said Willem de Kooning, Joan Mitchell, or mentioned Pewabic Pottery, less people are likely to pick up on the gist of the argument, which also holds true for their works.

There are probably 30-40 art galleries within an hours driving distance of my place with hundreds of works of original art priced from $300-10,000. The stuff on the higher end is clearly a massive splurge for most people, but its hardly money laundering territory. Most cities have local art scenes and collectors, the vast majority of whom arent using it for laundering money. Im sure at the very top, the ultra wealthy are using it as a way to preserve and transfer wealth but thats a small minority of people. I just think the money laundering thing is a largely cynical take. https://www.theonion.com/man-always-gets-little-rush-out-of-telling-people-john-1819578998
