creating the models is still fucked. i don't mean running my own gpu.
yes it fucking does. instead of collaborating with someone else who has a skill I don't have i just have the magic box do it. the reason it's hard to find someone to make me some 3D models is capitalism, the reason i don't have time or energy to learn all these skills i don't have is capitalism, but the tool that allows the company to fire workersbecause they don't need them for the work to get done also makes it so I don't need someone else for the work to get done.
it absolutely reinforces isolation.
Typically, people build on existing models as opposed to training them from scratch. The amount of times models are trained from ground up is infinitesimally small in the grand scheme of things. Most of the energy is spent in actually running them.
Literally the opposite is true. Tools like ComfyUI are already being used by artists to collaborate and bring their visions to life. This particularly true for smaller studios that have limited resources.
These tools streamline the workflow and allow for a faster transition from the initial sketch to a final product. They also facilitate an iterative and dynamic creative process, encouraging experimentation and leading to unexpected and innovative results. AI has the capacity to expand creative potential and enables smaller teams to tackle more ambitious projects.
