As I am reading up on all the AI articles populating the blog this week it is fascinating seeing how different companies priorities change when developing AI depending on the population of their users. Copilot and Gemini are both integrated into companies that although have creative platforms are much more focused on productivity and data management this show in how their AI is developed and skims data from previous work. I am excited that Adobe recognized the creative motivations around their users and is honoring the work that Adobe users create giving them consent and credit when using their work in AI development. I do wonder if Adobe having these policies is more for show because of how accessible everything is online to AI especially now that Adobe is in the cloud. I hope that adobe is actually putting up precautions to protect artists work form data skimmers and their statement is not just performative.
AI has no place in creativity. I'm sorry artist are upset because a computer is doing the work of the artist and because of that we are becoming more and more disconnected from the experience of building art and the process required. Art really exists within starting the project to when the artist wants to hand off that experience to the viewer. AI detracts from this experience, by instead turning our artist statement into the thing and not us creating an artist statement out of the process. AI is actually something that I feel has a place in our world but I do not think AI has any place in the world of art. If you want a fun t-shirt, reach out to an artist to create that for you. It is limiting our interactions and preventing the human experience from being shared human to human because we are letting this database of information produce that content. We have the ability to imagine and create new things. This is why being a human is so special. I don't think that AI should have any place in that experience.
