one thing i noticed at the art crawl this year is a number of fine artists using LLMs in their work. i spoke with one painter who said their neighbor had used mj to "recreate his style." I asked "how does that sit with you?" and he kind of waved over his face and said, "yeah, it's not... this/me"

I am puzzled. How are fine artists using generative tools? What does mj have to do with it?

> How..? as far as I've seen: exploration, seeing what happens with feeding image models their work, creating 3D imagery to support their sculpture work, etc. some going to far as to use generative art for flyers, which I personally find offputting. > What...? Midjourney. Wasn't the artist.

Thank you. I was envisioning some kind of paint-by-numbers horror and am glad to hear that isn't the case. Still, surprised actual artists would make flyers that way.
