    As much as I have issues with AI, I feel like it would actually help you get your imagination set down in a way you could actually show people? Like I can think of a wonderful scene in my head, but I can’t even draw a straight line with a ruler and you want me to draw that scene? Hell no, and lack of ability isn’t lack of imagination, it’s just a skill issue.

      Drawing however is a vital part of the creative process. Creativity is not only about getting your mental image on paper, but also to learn and hone your limits as an artist.

      Bob Ross said that stuff about “happy little accidents” for a reason.

          But they’re never interesting. It’s never due to some human factor, but always a “huh, I guess the stochastic model doesn’t work properly.”

            You can definitely input the wrong words in your prompt, swap the positive and negative prompts, forget to select the correct controlnet pre-processor. These errors do turn out interesting results, I wish I had some to show you. How much experience do you have working with this stuff?

          Well first off, most paraplegics still have use of their arms, so drawing should not be a problem there.

          Quadriplegics have access to digital interfaces and there are many example of an artists who use their mouths to paint. Henry Salas has lost function in 90% of his body and has been a digital artist for over a decade. https://www.henrysalas.com/digital-art

          Of course paraplegics can create art. The vital part is “uutting the work in” and being playful with your limits. Paraplegics still hve limits, don’t they?

          The usual argument goes “finally, I can create art that ‘looks good’”. But “looking good” isn’t really the main point of art. It’s a human expression and that includes supposed “mistakes”.

        I’d argue that creativity shouldn’t be linked to technical skill. I’ve met people who have really creative ideas and solutions that they couldn’t carry out because they couldn’t weld, machine, do carpentry, paint, draw, or otherwise carry out their idea. Are they not creative? Sure, to be a great artist you need those skills, and using AI does not make you an artist as a result, but using AI to demonstrate your creativity shouldn’t be demonised. Creating AI using other people’s IP without their permission should be demonised.

      The issue is when people use chatgpt or whatever to form a reply for them, like i get that people can’t draw hence cannot implement said imagination, but…word? It doesn’t have to be fancy, just type out what they have in mind. It happened right in Lemmy as well.
