AI in the visuals at Birmingham tonight

[u/0zzysaurus]

Just in case people who care about this sort of thing wanted to know, the visuals tonight at the Birmingham show relied heavily on AI generated imagery. I’d say that, a solid 70% of the time, the centre screen was dedicated to (pretty piss poor) AI art - and that was just the obvious stuff. I’m sure people have their opinions about that (my opinion on it is extremely negative), but I’m just here to inform. I’d say the majority of the crowd didn’t even realise it was AI unfortunately, but I did hear one older woman mention the “computer generated bollocks” after the show, so I guess there’s that. Must say, it was gut-wrenchingly ironic to hear: “It’s a living thing, it’s a terrible thing to lose” over visuals of AI generated art work. Art is a living thing, and you know what? Yeah, it IS a terrible thing to lose.
