Is This The End of Human Creativity? (Midjourney Reaction)
Exactly one month ago, I signed up to test drive Midjourney–an Ai art generation program. The results left me feeling excited and terrified. On this video, I share many of the reflections I've had while exploring what Midjourney can do and the implications of the much broader implementation of Ai creativity.
The 'artworks' featured in this video were all generated by me over the last month, through Midjourney. (Except Jason Allen's Colorado State Fair piece.) Each 'artwork' only required an interesting text prompt, with occasional modifiers, and was then generated by the Ai within 60 seconds.
Is this art? Is this creativity or is this complex mimicry?
