Can you imagine what the art institute would be like now had they not been sued out of existence? Man that was bad even without AI
It seems we’re starting to see how AI is harming several things
> A film student at the University of Alaska Fairbanks destroyed another student’s allegedly AI-generated display piece by physically eating it out of protest.
I wonder what slop tastes like.
Maybe Hitler would have been a more successfull artist with AI?
My girlfriend in highschool had a sketchbook of a ton of my classmates nude, she only shared it with me.
This tech has only made being creepy easier. People have always been creepy, and they will always find a new way to be creepy. Punish people who put stuff out in public severely, but you’ll never stop them from doing it in private (and maybe we shouldn’t try)
Its interesting that the opening of the article tells the story of someone proud of their relatives 3D modeling, because I’m old enough to remember when „art schools were being torn apart“ by 3D and photoshop.
Even though the AI situation is far worse, the concerns and arguments against it are identical to when computer art first started becoming mainstream. You can literally change „AI“ for „computer/3D“ and „3D/computer“ for „traditional/2D“ and it reads word for word the same. Guess things come back full circle.
(I’m anti-AI art, just interesting to see computer artists chilled by it in the same way computers once threatened 2D)
I’m so tired of seeing *anything* slapped together by an algorithm designed to amalgamate data and resolve commands called ‚artificial intelligence‘ or ‚creative‘ **when it is patently, objectively neither.**
I’m just here because I’m a Steelers fan that was confused by the thumbnail.
Society to young people back in the 80’s to 2000s: get a degree and you will have a career for life!
Society to young people now: fuck off! You’re on your own!
Our company just ran their yearly scholarship contest and 90% of the entries were tossed because not only did they sound like AI, but they were all identical because the dumb kids used the similar prompts and changed nothing.
I’ve been seeing more post of people submitting AI art as their own in contests, digital and even on canvas. I think what these idiots do is they print their gen AI on canvas so that they can paint over it to give it a “human touch.” Give me a break.
Weird that’s not the headline Archive Is gave me… Hmm
Anyway these schools are doing their job by giving their students all the skills necessary to compete in their market. Anyone complaining about this is not living in the real world.
Why art?
Why of all things to automate, why the one thing that is uniquely human?
Why would anyone enrol on any kind of arts degree and submit AI generated work?
Art schools being torn apart by students realizing the product they are paying for is a paper not a skill set. All art is subjective and personal skill comes from reputation, understanding of historical development comes from research and if they want a mentor they need to reach out to one rather than going to school….oh and adults can’t see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch… i mean AI.
… my take from outside of the US – here (central europe), universities are free, you even get an automatic scholarship for your life expenses from the government, if you are a good student. The hard STEM subjects are not selective even at the best universities – we take anybody with a HS diploma – and we kick out over 50 percent of them in the first year.
This is in stark contrast with the art/acting/music schools we have – they are highly selective. E.g. movie director degree takes about 1 percent of applicants. I dare say, this system works – there is way too many people, who would try the art degrees, and become very mediocre artists down the line, if there was not such brutal selection on entry. This also would lead to all sorts of problems with such students, as this article shows. And here, the government foots the bill for the uni education – and they are unwilling to pay for that.
I think that the problem of the US system is that the schools there take unreasonably high amounts of applicants for art/acting/music degrees. There is nothing stopping them – the students are paying. And this is what you get.
looks like theyre being torn apart by the pittsburgh steelers. i’m sorry.
AI is so bad and Trump is also bad
If you’re using AI in art school you should just be expelled, there is literally zero reason for you to be there at that point. It’s like someone operating a Sybian, like why are you even here?
I’m getting a studio art degree right now and everyone is very vocal against any kind of AI usage. Students are even more against it than the teachers. The one dude in my Spanish class that talks about using AI all the time is mocked endlessly.
I went to a for profit art/music/game engineer school. (Frankly it was a fat scam but I got hired right out of school so it worked out for me). Freshman and Sophmore year we had a few classes that weeded out the folks who clearly were there because they thought it was an easy degree or would be fun. Honestly, they should have weeded harder.
The AI is just another tool to hack your way through your classes. None of these kids using AI as a crutch are going to get jobs, especially in this field. Out of my graduating class, only about a dozen out of a hundred or so were hired, and that was when the market was pretty preem a decade ago and pre-AI, which has killed off over 50% of the grunt jobs at my office due to automation over the last two years.
Lots of these kids are looking for the easy way through school and are unwilling to put the effort in, and its gunna bite them in the ass hard later.
Honestly that’s perfectly fine. I went to an art school for a year and your better of teaching yourself or finding your own groups and resources without school.
It should be banned so that artists/designers learn the skillset to then apply AI with later.

Fuck AI, its art is all optics and no haptics, it feels like nothing
I think this is most schools tbh
Leave me behind, please.
The Arts have been a decorative feature of plentiful societies while an easy drop when the money gets tight.
Perfect examples, the church building era in Europe came to an abrupt end during the mini-ice age. When you had good crops and rich societies, big, beautiful, artistic buildings with gorgeous stained glass windows, huge halls with fabulous painting and sculptures. All very nice, and have been valued by many generations. But, the mini-ice age put folks into a tools down situation. The population careened into a tail spin with a few years of bad crops followed by the plague that almost wiped out Europe.
So, Art is gonna go for a while. AI is gonna get better and that’s never not going to be true, but how people use AI will change and thus, so will the economy. Art will make a comeback, it will just be when the world economy settles down and when the artists use it as a tool.
Art schools were mostly unaccredited scams regardless.
