Maybe an unpopular opinion here, but I feel like posting AI-generated ghibli-style pictures is hugely disrespectful to Miyazaki and all the values he stand for. Miyazaki said once he feels "AI Art" is an "insult to life itself" - and I have to agree, since it strips all the human element art is supposed to represent
Just put the shitpost in the bag
Not to be controversial, but genocide is bad
Not to be obvious, but bears shit in woods
Bears, beets, battlestar galactica
That one IS a controversial opinion unfortunately.
- he said that about any ai art though and he is right.
- he didn't say it was an insult to him
- This is a ai generated gnomes butt on a shitpost community, not art
This is making fun of the fad. Calm down jeez
Ok... but is the picture art??? I don't think anyone would try to argue it is. Miyazaki was specifically talking about how no algorithm can produce art, and I agree.
What makes this screenshot funny is the human element, the performance! It's all ridiculous.
Glorified Matrix Algebra: [Presents an image of a caked-up gnome]
Internet goblin: "Make it's butt even bigger."
Glorified Matrix Algebra: "Sorry, that's a bridge too far for me."
Is the original image art? Who's to say.
But turn that image into a meme and it does become art. And that's wonderful.
(The original image absutely is art)
We can simultaneously agree that what’s happening is bad and disrespectful, and still find it funny :3
Sounds to me like Miyazaki needs to lighten up.
Sounds to me that you need to become a bit more human and empathic.
But daddy elon told me empathy was bad
Come on. Public figures need to be able to deal with satire and mockery, and this isn't even a deep cut. Besides, have you seen how Miyazaki treats his family? That man has no empathy or humanity to offer his peers either. He's a stuck up old man that would do well to come down to earth.
No this ain't about satire and mockery. This is about preserving human creativity.
You can't be relaxed about things on lemmy, you have to have an anger boner about anything and everything. Especially if it's what the groupthink™ has decided we have to hate here.
If a miserable old man wants to hatekeep an entire art style then he's someone that I can safely and happily disrespect.
Rich people like him do not have feelings that matter, he's wealthy enough to solve real problems but instead he protects his personal legacy and wealth.
Defend capitalism and try to increase the power of the wealthy if you like but I'll always be on the side of people being free to express themselves regardless of the feelings of a rich old man.
Where do you draw the line, exactly? AI-generated art doesn't discriminate based on how wealthy the individual whose art it is copying is. Most artists aren't wealthy. Their work is being stolen just as readily as Miyazaki's. The fact that Miyazaki's not using his wealth to help others is completely irrelevant to the conversation.
You know that thing our collective parents do when they want to win an argument so they just start attacking you for random things you did 6 years ago? That's exactly what this person is doing.
The person above you, I mean.
That quote is taken totally out of context
It's been a bit since I saw the original behind the scenes vid or whatever it was, what was the context?
https://youtu.be/ngZ0K3lWKRc is the original context. I'd say it fits what I said perfectly
I kinda came here to say this. It really doesnt feel right doing that to Miyazaki after all the passion he put into the world. This is a slap to the face no matter the context. It is against his every wish.
slap right in the disappointingly unreenlarged buns
(sorry)
