@Johann150 sounds like a lot of AI as well. Pat ze Johann

@Erpel cats know. I had that holy birma at the house of my brother. She would stalk around the house when you are unwell or sick.

Hey fedi I need some discussion with humans outside of reddit.

I won't ask you what you think about AI in art. I will rather ask a different question.

Why do you enjoy art, be it music, lyrical stuff, images and paintings? How does the artist themselves influence your opinion of a given piece? positively or negative.

Talking with some AI-Bros on reddit about well AI in music.

That got me thinking... Why do I like Art created by humans and why can it not be replaced by AI.

I love reading books, listening to music and obviously looking at nice pictures. And for many people it ends there.

But writing blog on light novels got me into contact with creative people. I noticed how much the creatives actually love to gush about their work, their processes, their passion.

It certainly does give an other lense to look through when one knows the effort and passion that goes into these things. They might even enhance the enjoyment of the art as well. Sadly many people don't seem to care and only really look for the end result.

I think Light Novels do a nice job to give some insight in what an author thought and what they got inspired from when writing a book or volume. They traditionally feature a section with an afterword. Where the author can write stuff on that. I love reading them most of the time.

I love it when people are passionate about something and want others join the fun and create something cool while they are at it.

You certainly know I am a big fan of the SAO spinoff. And its author is a total and utter gun-nut something you really see throughout the books with how much detail is present.

The author of goblin slayer does let himself get inspired by stuff (like that time when he visited germany) and uses his knowledge and background in tabletop to write nice stories for the novels.

the mangaka of Dress-up Darling really did her homework when it comes to cosplay and did extensive research and I think you really see this in the manga with how detailed and accurate she describes stuff around cosplay. A major theme in the manga.

I don't think AI or the prompters is capable of such passion which is why it might come as soulless and unpassionate. AI might get to a point where it will replicate the result very well. But I think the path to something is also valuable (since I also do some crafts with sewing).

Though some stuff I commissioned had some other thoughts as well for me. There is not only the value of the product you can conceive. A commission is something very personal.

Something made for me and along the lines of my wishes and the artists capability and style.

I have an image of me in cosplay with the drawn character I cosplay alongside me. Some may just see that image but for it has a bigger emotional value. One for the photo shoot I made that image on. And the other is the work that the artist put to make LLENN look super cute and fit into the scene. I loved her style regardless. But knowing she sat down for me (even though it was for money) is nice.-

The other thing I value dearly beyond the prodcut is my wallpaper on my PC that features many different characters from the Pen and Paper sessions I would run with that group. The artist really did give it her best and we loved it. And I have a very cool memory I can look back at since the image reminds me of the group and their adventures. (I really have to get back to that)

Tell me fedi! And to all artists: You are valuable!

@rick I have certainly learned to life with bluetooth even though its SBC-Codec

@rick not even the jack. As you remember mine is not usuable with the headphones I have anyway. Its the microSD slot and easily replaced battery

@rick I am thinking about the same thing but modern smartphones are not really great anymore. So much stuff missing

@rick sloprot!

Lul some redditors are really lost.

Telling me in that bandcamp thread: "If AI is so bad and a parrot then why its a threat to musicians"

(basically trying to spin it in such a way that AI shall be allowed)

And then adding stuff like "but humans also just copy other works by sampling. AI does the same basically" (I parapheased it a little


obvs. Feel free to tell If I am wrong here: https://www.reddit.com/r/BandCamp/comments/1qbw8ba/comment/nzhsj88/

Maybe my arguments not be the best. But how are the AI-Bros ignoring all the bad that AI is responsible for?

@mametsuko @cell When I find time some day ^^"

@cell @mametsuko cell Europe arc!

@cell @mametsuko that will also make you travel a lot

@mattesilver @gnitro You see... Bandcamp does not make the music that is sold there. Its the users running their own stores. Think of it more of like something akin to itch.io

It was obvious that AI-Music would not spare their platform for sure. Finding it surely also is not the easiest task with how much music releases every day. Especially after they killed their editorial dept after that merger with songtradr.

Its good to see them take an honest stance against AI. Even though it surely is easy to get browny-points that way with the more and more negative perseption of AI and the slop that comes out of it.

@mametsuko what a week. But still good morning mame

Bandcamp has posted to Reddit that they are prohibiting music that is created wholly or with subtantial use of AI on their platform. Full post with guidelines and how to report AI music.

@jacky That joke reads so japanese lol. It does not really work in english.

@infobeautiful Average being utterly average is incredible indeed

@epsi average slav experience

Well testing around with this. "copying" from dolphin like this is... very slow.

I was recommended freac though which is very good and fast
