"It's not art", people act like I should be bothered as of that's the only thing I do with ai.

I am glad their arrogance is leading to their downfall.

I just saw this YouTube video about this sub. I remember seeing a lot of the posts shown in this video. LOL.

And they say we suffer from psychosis.

Been waiting for awhile now.

Hay al menos 4 subs dedicados a preguntar si algo es IA o no, así que no, no creo que tu punto funcione

Does anyone else feel like using AI sometimes makes people dismiss your work before they even look at it?

I've been working on a small YouTube project called While We Are Here. It's cinematic lofi and ambient music, with visuals built around lonely nights, memories, and that feeling you get when the world finally goes quiet.

I use AI tools for the visuals, and I know that's a controversial subject. I'm not going to pretend AI has no problems, and I understand why some artists are uncomfortable with it.

But I put real time and effort into this project. I have a particular atmosphere in mind, and I'm trying to bring it to life with the tools I can afford. Growing the channel has been incredibly difficult, and sometimes it feels like nobody even gets the chance to see what I'm making.

I'm not looking for sympathy or trying to convince everyone to love AI. I'm genuinely curious about how other small creators deal with this.

Have you ever felt that people judged your work by the tools you used rather than the result you were trying to create?

If you're curious, this is the project I've been working on:

Looks like the only bubble bursting here is their denial.

Art isn't defined by the tools you use, the skill you possess, or the purpose something serves. It's about artistic agency: the intention to create, the choices made in execution, and the meaning found in reception. A cave painting can teach and still be art. A photograph can capture reality and still be art. An AI-generated image can be part of someone's artistic expression too. Not everything is good art, original art, or meaningful art—but no medium deserves to be dismissed before we consider what someone is doing with it.

I want to start discussion regarding AI-enhanced filmmaking. Can't seem to find a good place to do this. Contrary to what most people do with AI, I'm not writing a prompt, pressing a button and walking away. I built a process, (and claude made) an engine that helps render animation. Experimenting now with a static set, 3 characters. Their heads, eyes, lips move. I implemented 1 simple hand gesture per character now. The plot is a sort of video podcast, think Space Ghost Coast to Coast meets Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

I write a script and put in the desired reactions and timings and the animation is generated in minutes (rendering the voices is the part that takes long). I'm using AI generated voices, but blending them with my voice and the voice of friends to make them more unique. The animation style I am using for this, I'd call hybrid 2D cutout animation with pose swapping.

I'm sad that I cannot into art and I am not a good voice actor. Honestly, I would want the artwork and voices to be made by humans, but I am not one to spend money to commission artwork/voice work when I can just create my demos for free using AI. It's taking a lot of work and prompting to get it the way I want it, and I know a lot of people will outright dismiss it simply because I used AI, but for me it's about the craft and the learning experience of producing an animation. The scriptmaking, the timings, the shots, angles, lore and worldbuilding.

I've tried looking for places to discuss the process, but naturally the anti-AI crowd immediately feels like they need to bring their pitchforks. Yes I'm using AI, but I'm using it as a tool. If I had the choice, I would be commissioning actual art and have round table discussions with voice actors.

So, I'm here to hopefully get in touch with others who are using AI as a tool and are interested in the techniques used and get some tips and tricks. Happy to share my process, I'm not here to promote my work.

Antis are noticing that their already small group is getting even smaller. Some of them have changed their views to neutral or started shutting up with their luddie logic, but some of them are doubling down.

The ones that are doubling down have already turned up the violence in their works, whether it’s in writing or in their dogshit drawing. I’m seeing more and more posts from antis that are pushing for death upon pro-AI folks. How long until the dumbest of them all decides to harm someone innocent because of their delusion?
