Ai Generated Art is sweeping the art world and casting a clear divide in the sand. It seems artists either love it for it\u2019s vast inspiration and possibilities or hate it for it\u2019s elimination of the process and soul.<\/p>\n
The Dictionary definition of Art is, \u201cthe expression or application of human<\/strong> creative skill<\/strong> and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.<\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n Therefore, one could say, images that are generated by AI aren\u2019t Art, however, the fact that these images can be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power, could start the debate for a revision in the Dictionary definition; but Art, to a very broad extent, is subjective.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s go back to 7 years to provide some context. Incorporated in San Francisco in 2015, OpenAI said it was developing safe and friendly AI systems in a way that benefits humanity as a whole. The company\u2019s founders \u2014 Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and others, collectively pledged US$1 billion, with Musk resigning from the board in February 2018, to focus on Tesla (especially) & SpaceX, but remained a donor.<\/p>\n In June 2020, OpenAI announced GPT-3, a language model trained on trillions of words from the Internet. It also announced that an associated API, named simply \u201cthe API\u201d, would form the heart of its first commercial product. GPT-3 is aimed at natural language answering of questions, but it can also translate between languages and coherently generate improvised text.[14]\n<\/p>\n In January 2021, OpenAI introduced DALL-E. One year later, their newest system, DALL\u00b7E 2, generates more realistic and accurate images with 4x greater resolution. In late 2020 MidJourney was born,\u00a0as a competitor to DALL-E, as research lab and the name of the lab\u2019s artificial intelligence program that creates images from textual descriptions.\u00a0Last month they went into Open Beta.<\/p>\n To artists and researchers utilizing AI, generative Art matters a lot. Creativity is in itself is a generative method. We can\u2019t drum up an idea without the open system-style structure our brains operate on. 6 years ago, someone said, \u201cArt is an expression of human creativity, imagination, and improvisation \u2013 something that computers will never have.\u201d And yet, here we are!<\/p>\n I\u2019m constantly impressed by, (or is it scared of?), the incredible speed at which technology is changing and improving our everyday lives. \u00a0MidJourney is very impressive, but it still in its very early stages, so one can only imagine what could be next.<\/p>\n In terms what is actual behind the powerful AI generator? Well this is obviously their IP and being kept under wraps. In terms of how you can start using this very powerful AI generator, here is a guide.<\/p>\n 1) Create a Discord<\/a> account if you don\u2019t have one already. We would love to see what you have created, so please post to instagram and #loveartinsurancegroup<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ai Generated Art is sweeping the art world and casting a clear divide in the sand.

\u201cSo how does it work? Just \/imagine.\u201d<\/b><\/h5>\n
2) Go to Midjourney.com<\/a> and sign up for one of their plans, starting at $10 per month.
3) After you link your Discord account, navigate to the Midjourney server and look for the \u201cNewbie\u201d bot channel.
4) In the channel \u2013 type \/imagine and then type whatever you can imagine. Viola!<\/p>\n
