Tangent I guess, it would be interesting to have like a AI/not AI quiz. They still look AI to me but idk if it's because I know

It should be clear in the text, disguising as non-AI is not a goal. It's allowed to look like AI. It's just trying not to look shit.

And that default look - that might not be shit either. Except we've now seen it repeated so many times that we're sick of it.

Suppose you have a budget of $20.

Do you think you will find good artists working for that fee?

I don't think so, unless they are working to prove a point -- that humans can be as good as AI.

And that's the problem:

Humans can be as good as AI, but they are much more expensive.

  • Maybe you have a friend that's trying to get started in design and could do a favor for a chance to build a portfolio.

    • Would someone who's "trying to get started in design" be able to make anything as good as these AI posters? And how would they survive in a world where machines can do their job for free?

      I suppose human artists will continue to exist, but they will be like chess players: they will continue to exist simply because they love art, but they won't be able to compete with AI.

      ETA: less than 2 years.
