Reply to comment by HelloGoodbyeFriend in Anyone else kinda tired of the way some are downplaying the capabilities of language models? by deadlyklobber

I got an art piece commissioned by a human being in mid 2021 and posted it to a subreddit the other day. Someone commented and said “this is, without a doubt AI art” I then replied and clarified it wasn’t and then I credited the artist.

They then called it trash anyway and said Dalle came out in 2021.. even though the original Dalle couldn’t do anything close to the art piece. Some people man…
