  • As for the terminology for AI haters, I think the proper term is “art lover.” AI is trained on stolen art, and its output is used instead of paying a human artist.

    Artists have always had apprentices who were dedicated to learning their master’s style.

    This training would include learning/using the same brushes/equipment, lighting, brush strokes, etc. down to sometimes microscopic detail.

    Some would title their works like: “<Title> - After <Original Artist Name>” or “In the Style of <Original Artist Name>”… others wouldn’t bother with attribution, but may have gone on to become masters themselves. Some AI art prompts in fact include “(in the style of <Artist Name>)”

    When looking at paintings, I have honestly mistaken Julie Bell paintings for Boris Vallejo works before noticing her signature. Is Julie an artist? or just a thief?

    Is Bob Ross an artist? or a just a thief of Bill Alexander’s work? I have (re)created oil paintings after learning Bill/Bob’s wet-on-wet (Alla Prima) technique. Can I sell them as “my own”? or am I just a thief?







  • Thanks for the details on where they came from!

    I found and added another artist to my plugin: Louis-Léopold Boilly

    I think there are a few others that can be added or might be missing (maybe a lot!). My list/plugin currently has 877, and I have a list of artists that I’ve used in the past that I haven’t checked if they’re on the big list yet.

    I’ll keep adding to the plugin as I find more… so you can check/compare/sync every once in a while if you want. There are also some minor case issues in some of the names that I will fix as I find them.

    naturally tagging each artist by their properties…

    Yep. I’ve also been messing around with categorizing the artist list by “style” or “genre”. This will be quite a project. lol. I know a lot of sorting, etc. can be done with js or perchance output… but I think the big clean list is a great starting point.

    I’ve also updated my Artist Demo Generator - I added a field to enter any Artist name, to easily check if the AI recognizes an artist that might be missing from the list: https://perchance.org/aa3den2ecy






  • If you have any ideas for prompts to generalize the artists style, i.e. currently it is only showing results for portraits, what if we had a sample prompt for a landscape, etc. for easy test of the artist’s style…

    Hmm… that might be tricky because the vast majority of the artists in the list primarily draw/paint people. I changed the prompt to “seascape” and only a few don’t include people. I spose you could add (people) to the negative prompt and see what happens.

    A more ambitious project would be to have multiple subjects to choose from.


  • Thanks! In the plugin, there has been one update to the artists already since I first checked @Alllo@lemmy.world 's original generator. I also fixed case and sort for the artist names in the plugin (and added a few artists), and will maintain that in the plugin to avoid having to include .titleCase in the generator code.

    ps: It seems like you could output the copy button just once - next to the title. I think it would be more useful to be able to copy AFTER seeing a sample of the artist’s work generated? I guess it would depend on how the generator is used.






  • [Feature request] Alternatively, it would be nice if the seed appeared in a field when clicking an image after the image is saved to a gallery (like the prompts do).

    This was taken care of beautifully! - especially with the bonus of having the info button available before the image is saved to the gallery. Thanx again @perchance@lemmy.world !

    [Feature request (gallery)] I understand the (necessary) function of the overlay on the gallery images for content filtering purposes - and it works great… however as it is, it makes it impossible to view a gallery image at full size without downloading it or using browser dev tools. I don’t know if it would be possible to add a “View Image” or “Open image in new tab” button? Perhaps having it appear only AFTER accepting the content warning popup? Really fancy would be invoking a lightbox gallery… but that might be overkill.

    This button could be optional on the normal image output container div because right-click > open image in new tab is currently possible.
