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.

This, everyone literally upset that a robot it’s doing pretty fucking well at generating stuff they do. More often than not the loudest yelling people know the least about the technology or the beautiful math behind how these models generate images from literal static and knowledge of other artists, techniques, styles, etc.

But it’s only natural I suppose. Some sort of defense mechanism toward outsiders. Not gonna let the ignorant and the greedy stop me from continuing on with the pace of the future while carving out nooks and crannies for other people who like doing this stuff too and find it just as beautiful and amazing as I do.

Writing prompts isn’t all it takes to produce quality content. It also takes understanding of how the entire process works, which samplers to use, dimension ratios, prompt weighting, don’t forget that there’s technically 2 positive and 2 negative prompts (4 total) which do things a bit differently from each other.

There’s also model considerations, any advanced techniques like LoRas, controlnet, etc.

Downplaying the other side only ever hurt your sides argument when it comes for the others to make their case.
