I used ChatGPT once. It created non functional code. But, the general idea did help me get to where I wanted. Maybe it works better as a rubber duck substitute?

Use it as a boilerplate blaster, for shit you could write yourself

I did my first game jam with the help of chat gpt. It didn't write any code in the game, but I was able to ask it how to accomplish certain things generally and it would give me ideas and it would be up to me to implement.

There were other things I knew my engine could do but i couldn't figure out using the documentation, ao I would ask chat gpt "how do you xyz in godot" and it would give me step by step. This was especially useful for the things that get done in the engine ui and not in code.

Yeah, generating some ideas to get you going might be the best use for this kind of stuff.

That's how I view AI generated art. It can come up with some really cool mash ups. But you have to do the rest. Anyone just using what it outputs like that's the end of the story isn't 'using it right' in my opinion.

I'm not sure there's a way to 'use art right.'

You're obviously not an artist. And you managed to completely miss my point.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, but my husband is and he's been refining keywords and using all sorts of loras and all other types of jargon that I don't recall because I'm not interested in doing it myself.

And I didn't miss your point, I just don't agree with it.

So what, are you the art version of a military wife? Just throwing "aCtuALly"s out into the void because your husband types words into a field?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Better than being the art version of an asshole, but I see you're already filling that role.

Ok Karen. Go dependa somewhere.

Right, I expect stuff like stable diffusion will become a part of the toolkit actual artists use. The workflows with this stuff are already getting pretty intricate where people use control net for posing, and inpainting of specific details, and so on. I would liken it to doing photography. You can't just give a camera to anybody and get good results, it takes a person with a skill and taste to produce an interesting image.
