ARTIST vs PHOTOSHOP AI - Are We Being Replaced?

I just feel that artists don’t get much attention for their dedicated hard work. You can get this man to create phenomenal art which some people would want to copy and redraw and get no views and likes and attention whereas someone just types a few words and everyone will like it. Really love your work

As a non-artist with no artistic ability, having played with AI art for a few months now, I think I can say that AI art will not (can not) replace artists. Anyone can easily use AI to churn out generic, non-meaningful 'art' all day, but it will always take a true artist at the helm to create anything of artistic value. It will be an amazing tool to improve the workflow of an artist, but it will never make someone an artist if they weren't before.

The only problem I see ever being a serious threat is AI "Artists" claiming their work is 100% self made. Genuine Artists will always be valued.

Damn, honestly, no ai can ever be better than one of bennys insane artworks. This is crazy, thank u Benny. 🙏

I started my own channel and I was really scared to do that because of AI and I realized something, no matter how good AI gets, It's all about the process, I watch Benny, PhaseRunner, Encreate etc. all the time and I enjoy it more and more, I don't care if computer creates the most amazing paintings I'm still watching Bob Ross.

Great video, and I agree with your points! In my field of work (thumbnails), the Generative Fill has proven to be one of the best tools ever. What was usually a mundane process before is just a breeze now. Best examples are removing small objects, expanding the image/objects or adding the shoulders when clients send a cut-off selfie for a thumbnail 😂 Lots of saved time!

I think it'll be interesting to see Benny vs. Midjourney

Great vid man! Your version was top notch 🔥

The images that Ai did in this video are impressive, however my favorite is the one that benny did, it is just so well made and beautiful and has a lot more action.

Even if it was only ever designed as a stepping off point for real artists, there are countless things that end up being used in ways beyond what their intended purpose was. In other words, this is definitely going to be used as a cheap and fast alternative to hiring an artist. We artists are definitely going to be replaced in the eyes of many clients.

Ai definitely will replace a lot of designers for the simple reason that most people/companies are cheap and if they can get a result with "a push of the button" they will do that instead of paying for work.

Yours is definitely the best looking. I agree, it's more a tool to simplify work around some areas or a tool for inspiration.

AI definitely can't replace artists anytime soon. It does however seem to be a really useful tool to enhance certain parts of the image and also can save a ton of time on concept artwork for movies, videogames, ect.

My biggest issue with some of these AI models is lack of transparency. Where are the images that are being used to train the model being pulled from? Were those original artists/photographers compensated? I'd assume in many cases they haven't so it's borderline theft

I'm glad that you switched from "AI is bad" to "It's just here to help us out", even if it's just a sponsored video featuring Adobe generative fill/Firefly. I really hope, that Adobe AND artists continue their work in this direction. For me, Firefly and PS generative fill both lacks some necessary features that Stable Diffusion has. And I don't mean "legally questionable custom models"😅 Would be great to have more artistic input in addition to simple prompt, which gives you semi-random result. Hope they'll eventually add something like controlnet and stuff, some ability to set up a pose for character(s); sketch or block out scene in 3d and render depth map in a Blender, for exaample, to use it as a basis for ai generation; etc. Since it's a sponsored video, I'm not sure if there will be a "sequel", but I really hope so. Benny, please, make a third attempt to this, but combining these technics: using AI to get a starting point and a kitbash parts, and then applying artistic skills to turn it from "oh, that's kinda interesting" to "wow, that's a masterpiece" state =) P.S. Also, IIRC, Generative Fill can not only produce new elements, but also alter already existing images, if selection is semitransparent. Can't confirm it though, as a Krita+SD user, who just saw this Photoshop tip in an accidental youtube recommended video.

I don't even have Photoshop I only have PicsArt but I been watching Benny's channel for a very long time and he's editing tips like how he apply shadow, elements really helps me in traditional art.....I'm using this as an opportunity to learn and get better at how to draw and see things realistically...❤❤

I mean. . . this is only how AI is NOW. I think people should consider that this is kind of stuff is going to evolve and advance dramatically and we need to prepare for that.

Benny where is Halloween edit submission video?😢😢😢 I loved that series please bring back...love from INDIA 🇮🇳

Honestly, no matter how cool the images are, i can tell whether the image is generated by ai by just looking at it. I dont know what it is. But there is something on the ai generated images.

AI is here to help can't replace a Pro like you 😄 Is there any Halloween video coming up?
