    Just a hot day.

    midriff looks very tight.

    while I like it and it looks well done and clean the biggest issue I have is it looks like AI art.
    Some AI art is difficult to tell. Some isnt AI art but just looks like it. But when I get on DA and browse my mind says: AI art, AI art, Photoshop, AI art, AI art, 3D, AI art, Photoshop.

    Even if it isnt AI or it is AI the "look" is there and my reaction is thats nice work that a computer did. I wonder what words someone keyed in to tell the computer what to do. Its not like I say wow that artist is amazing. Almost the same with feeling with Daz but to more of a degree.

    @d0gg0d I have the same feeling on DA, but that's mostly because most images there have been done lazily (with AI only and a simple prompt) and are mostly close-ups.

    Very few people dare to include hands (and if they do, they are mostly mangled), and even fewer use Photoshop to fix things.

    I always put my stuff through Photoshop to fix hands, colors, etc. so, not really a "done entirely by the computer". I just look at AI as a tool that can take you to up to 85% of the way quickly. It's the remaining 15% that separates an average AI user from an AI artist.

    A bit like photography, you don't say, look what the camera did 🙂

    Not going to take away anything from the image. I like it and its well done. Its a bit like Browsing through the Daz store. You can pretty much look at certain promo shots of characters and tell who made them. While all the AI images may have certain aspects that set them apart from each other they also have certain aspects that tie them all together.

    I look at the image and say thats pretty and I wish I could draw that well. I also look at the image and say a computer did that using other peoples art. Its bad enough that I use a model designed by another person in an environment designed but another person but now we are taking art and renders made by people and having a computer squish them together and taking credit for it. Its just another layer separating us from the source.

    It almost like taking credit for a commission. I want my character to look like this, wear this, stand like this, with this background. Thanks that looks great, Here's $500. Hey everyone look what I just did.

    Photography is a decent observation. Take a picture of something that already exists and take credit for it existing. Pretty close to AI art. I do Daz because its makes making art easier. I "feel" I have a bit of control during the process. What little AI I tried seemed like enter a selection of words/art and click a button till something pops up that looks acceptable. I guess that would make art easier also. Perhaps it just the psychological / philosophical way I am looking at AI. Yet another way the computer separates us from humanity.

    This is the same opinion I see on sites like CGSociety/ArtStation where they say Daz/Poser users are just "playing with dolls" because they don't make everything themselves.... models designed by another person in an environment designed by another person.
    The amount of control with anything depends on skill and imagination and not the media used, so why spoil our game.

    Reminds me of Star Trek when Scotty was talking to the computer.

    Computer give me art.

    You have a point. You could say because I didn't crush dye into a paste and pull the hair from a weasel to make a brush I'm not committed enough to call my painting art.

    Not here to spoil the fun. Just thinking, typing and viewing from a certain perspective. I've watch people do nothing but pour paint on a canvas and call it art. A lot of it looks pretty good. It probably takes less effort than trying to figure out an algorithm for AI art.

    One of those out of sight out of mind issues. It is great till you find out how it's done.
