Controversial opinion…sick of seeing so much AI content

[lumberjack66]

I have been playing with the AI art and have a Deviant Art site with some of the things that I have done with it.  For me I have no identifiable artistic skill so it has opened up a lot of freedom to create.  I'd say it is kind of the same thing with Poser, Makehuman, Blender, etc. Very easy to create something and have it be 10x better than anything I could do artistically.  I have seen too many who are just spamming the space with every picture they create.  For me, I have found about 1 in 10 pictures I create I like and keep and maybe eventually post.  I have found that posting maybe 5 at a time is OK.  If you do a lot more than that, people just tune it out.  I have also had a lot of fun with the faceswapping software.  Taking the face of my wife and swapping it into catfight scenes is incredible.  Done the same for some friends.  Of course that is only for me and if I do it for somebody else, them.  I don't post any of that.  It really is getting incredible.  You watch some of the AI generated movies now popping up on Youtube and realize it is only a matter of time until amateurs like me will be able to create full length movies on just about any topic with any stars you want.  I'd be looking into a new career if I were an Actor, Graphics, Artist, Screenwriter, etc.

It's a mix bag.

I start using AI but have to literally clean 80 per cent as junk before finalising on a set of pictures.

So I may get a lot of crap for this, but I'm noticing a lot of my feeds on Reddit, twitter, deviantart and other forums revolving around our shared interest are getting flooded with AI content.

Don't get me wrong, I see the appeal for using it, you can quickly generate a story or image within minutes of whatever you desire (to an extent at least), and I will admit I have used it sparingly as a tool in the past.

But I do find it a little frustrating when I search for something particular and I have to scroll through heeps of AI content, I guess I just prefer to see art (ai images are not art btw), stories and videos made by people.

Again, despite my frustration, I'm not shitting on people for using it, each to their own, AI is getting big and bigger whether we like it or not, but I do find it frustrating...
I hope I'm not the only one, please don't kill me, just sharing opinions haha.
