A Quick Intro to AI Generated Art
AI has taken the world by storm, and even major tech companies like Microsoft and Google are incorporating elements of the technology into their key products. AI generated art is a big part of this wave of new technology as users can now create “art” simply by typing text into a prompt. The resulting imagery ranges from truly bizarre abominations to incredible masterpieces, a sign of the clear potential for the future of AI art.
How does it work? Imagine if you wanted to create a bespoke coffee table. In a metaphorical sense, the AI generator takes all of the trees its system is fed, reduces them to sawdust, then makes a digital tree from this sawdust. This digital tree is then cut down and made into what the AI generator considers to be a “coffee table” based on what it has learned from information such as captions and alt text. It’s a diffusion process by which the generator sources imagery, breaks it down into raw content, and uses the resulting bytes and bits to assemble something wholly new and “original.” Some popular generators to do this include DALL-E 2, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and DeepDream.
Grow Your POD Business by Selling AI Art
JONDO has been providing high quality custom printed products to artists, creatives, and businesses of all sizes for over 3 decades. POD companies can depend on us for print on demand order fulfillment when it counts for a variety of reasons.
While AI art generators can achieve some pretty amazing results,, they are still merely only tools to be used by the artist. It is he or she who ultimately makes the directorial and editorial choices in how the final piece is composed. By thinking of AI art as a tool, it can be used as part of one’s workflow to great advantage.
Whether used for conceptualization or the final piece, AI art generators allow artists to create detailed pieces in a fraction of the time it used to require. This allows for larger bodies of work that can be made into AI canvas art or other photo products for sale. Selling AI art is a great way to increase the amount of artwork artists can make available to their audiences.
Individuals and businesses looking to sell AI art can leverage the existing platforms where custom art has been sold. This includes Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, retail locations, and others. Additionally, to address the growing demand of AI generated art for sale, some dedicated AI art marketplaces such as AI Art Shop are newly available destinations as well.
AI Image Upscaling
When selling AI art, it is important to work with high resolution print files to maintain the quality of the original pieces. Current AI art generators are limited to lower resolutions. This can be solved by using an AI image upscaler such as Topaz Gigapixel AI or Let’s Enhance. These tools intelligently increase the resolution of artwork files by 2x, 4x, and more while maintaining the detail and sharpness of the image. This allows for artists to sell AI art with high quality at larger print sizes.
