Through more than a month of writing and researching the report, I finally completed a discussion on ai painting, its differences from human artists, its strengths and weaknesses, ideas for future development, and the final conclusion, and finally a presentation to explain the problems encountered and things learned in the process.
Writing my first report was a big challenge for me, to be honest I was confused and even a little scared of this course at first, before this I had only written essays on my short films as an undergraduate student, so I thought it would be very hard for me, at first when the teacher asked us to come up with a subject of interest, I’ve been thinking about the AI painting, because it’s been so hot these last two or three years and some of his work has been amazing to me. At the very beginning, my topic was: can AI painting replace human artists, I explained my idea to my teacher via email and in class, and my professor’s suggestion was that the topic was a good one, but it was too wide and it would be hard for me to prove in report whether it was possible to substitute ai paint for human artists, so I narrowed it down and It was changed to the differences between the painting of the ai painting and the human artists and the advantages and disadvantages.
In the process of writing, in order to really explore ai painting, I studied some of the websites of ai painting and really felt the power and drawbacks of ai painting. As an animation student, we need to draw concept drawings, scene design, colorkey, which are relatively professional, challenging and time consuming images of drawing in the pre-project stage, and the birth of the ai painting, which can help me Of course, even the most powerful ai is based on the human mind, it will always learn, put together, and it has no way to produce anything new at all, yes, it is very powerful, but there is still a long way to go before it can take the place of the artist who is a human being. it is a very powerful thing to do.
During the writing of this report, I learned a lot, such as what the methodology is, how to validate my thesis, how to find examples to support my ideas, and the use of the literature, I think the process of learning about them is more important, it will enhance some of my thinking, for example, through the ual library I have collected many papers on AI painting, It was a long process and I spent a great deal of time doing research and reading, which was a crucial stage and I really enjoyed the process.
I suspect that what I learned in this class, and the process of writing report, will help me in the future, and may be of great help to me in my dissertation.
