I am genuinely trying to get better at art. I’m not there yet (likely never will be), the lying machine is still better than me.

The context:

This is my sketch.

And this is what the ai output.

I like to think I poured my heart and soul into it. I know there are people who will tell me that I’m terrible for using ai at all. I’m also sorry if this is the wrong community to ask this question (ask reddit would delete my post instantly if I tried to post there).

Again, is this slop? I am not an artist. I drive a forklift real good, that’s my skillset. So if I were to use the ai upscaled version for my book, well, I’m asking for opinions.

    The bad part of using ai responsibly is that every slop “artist” claims to use ai responsibly.

      I’ll be honest, your technique makes the half done sketch look better and closer to what I’d consider a finished piece than the AI copy.

      It fucked up your lines and made them uninteresting. I like the original better.

      I’m neither militantly anti-AI nor an artist, I just think AI is kinda shit at doing things.

        The more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great when I was drunk last night. Also all this external validation is really helping my mental state. I’ll probably be using ai less because of this.
