There’s another form of AI art — LoRA artist-style models
When we say “human art” — we have to understand that professional artists differ from artists with professional degrees in art. The art schools and colleges teach with pencils and color sketching while students rely on computers to improve their weaknesses, enhance their skill sets, and grow their artistic abilities. Go to any gaming, digital, and animation company — they don’t recruit just based on pencil sketching skills, you need to know how to use computers and AI to digitally enhance the output.
People who see AI as a threat to human artwork — want to keep the animation industry at their artist-community level, and try to restrict its growth and potential.

People who are professional fine art degree holders, who work in designated industries - in gaming and animation use AI to enhance their images. They use AI to generate images, that are based on character art, concept art, and graphic design — this has been the case for many years.
People who say artists have no future due to AI — who are they? — They’re not fine art degree holders, but other degree holders who work in the art industry. They want to keep the “human skill” within the digital and gaming industry level - as a community - because it’s their job to design a style and keep it consistent. Now AI is not a direct threat to their job - but amateur artists who use AI will.
AI is an ethical threat to human artists who are engaged in character, concept, and graphic art. LoRa-style models are replacing humans.
Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support.
I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized.
he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that.
he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened.
he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence.
i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me
i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction.
after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly.
things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it.
we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe …
our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far?
this has upset me so much its hard to even function.
Of every 20 BFA degree holders - only 2 and out of 20 MFA’s only 1 works in the digital and animation industry. This is because not every BFA and MFA is a good artist. We have depended on computers and digital forms of art even before AI.
However AI fails to compete against professionally skilled artists like Johannes Vermeer or Hayao Miyazaki who now have very little market demand in the real world.
This directly targets human artists for their visual style. This model is built from learning the human visual style of art. Ethically it gets controversial since it learns from humans and takes over their jobs.

The seniors don’t want the unskilled to get upskilled with AI. If you visit any gaming or animation company - you can see highly paid professionals restricting their juniors or freshers from attaining their skill level, there’s more criticism and less teaching for improvement. My neighbor works for a popular animation company and this is how the work culture is.
Ghibli’s art is character-based — Kaguya and Shizuku are characters. Midjourney and Stable Diffusion are used to identify color, create visual appeal, and correct figure/form for these characters.
Original question - After the recent controversy over Ghibli art, many are saying that the artist has no future while others say, that people prefer human art when compared to AI art. What's your opinion on it?

One way to look at it is to find out how many art-based degree graduates have ended up working in their designated industry.
Many young students and early professionals primarily focused on character art, concept art, and graphic design — this is the industry demand. This is where AI is becoming more competitive.
Let’s break the bubble — Technology has been impacting the art world for many years. Artists in the education and professional fields have been aware of AI tools being developed for creative work for a very long time, it’s not a shocker — yet they chose to take up a fine arts degree and work in the gaming and animation industries.
