    Being good at trivia is a skill, too. It’s just not the same thing as photography

      And yet somehow photographers are still mad at AI users and are posting comments about how people will lose their photography job to something that “isn’t photography”

      Please help me understand your logic.

      It doesn’t have to be the same thing as photography. If it was the same thing as photography they’d be a photographer. What’s important is the results it produces.

        Every single time they ignore this point.

        No. It isn’t exactly photography, but yes, it does take learning and practice.

        They can shit on this stuff all they want. It’s open source, it’s not going away.

          Open source doesn’t mean much when there’s only one computer on the whole planet powerful enough to run the software. Also Midjourney’s weights aren’t open source, only the list of URLs of images used to train it, many of which have since been taken down

            And this is just straight up false

            I run automatic1111 at home all the time and make my own models.

            Please leave the discussion if you’re going to be providing outright false information.
