This month,the Internet was flooded with wonderful digital art portraits,thanks to the work of the latest artificial intelligence-assisted application to go viral:Lensa.Users uploaded their photographs to the App and then—for a small fee—it used AI to transform their profile pictures into,say,a magical warrior princess version of themselves,in no time at all.
This year has seen a breakthrough for AI-driven image generators,which are now better than ever in quality,speed and affordability.If that sounds great to you,you might not be one of the millions of humans whose livelihoods depend on being able to exchange those skills for money.Some artists predicted that a computer would recreate the aura of a masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci in the near future.As long as there are enough data for the AI to train itself,it can copy numerous masterpieces just in several minutes.It seems unavoidable that a large number of artists would lose their jobs.
“I see it less as a threat and more of an opportunity,” the UK-based illustrator Michelle Thompson said,adding,“Like everything else,there will always be artists who can use the tools better.”
These tools are only as good as the data sets they are trained on.Human imagination,on the other hand,has no limit.For Dryhurst,an artist from Germany,AI models “could attempt to make a pale version of something we did years ago”,but that “doesn’t account for what we might do next”.
The kind of artificial intelligence we might imagine replacing artists—an entirely autonomous creative robot—does not yet exist,but it is coming.And as AI becomes more universal,artists,illustrators and designers will ultimately be set apart not by if,but by how,they use the technology.
4.Why does the author mention Lensa in paragraph 1
A.To recommend the new App.
B.To inform the latest news.
C.To lead in the AI topic.
D.To introduce its new function.
5.What is Michelle Thompson’s attitude towards AI
A.Concerned. B.Favorable.
C.Unclear. D.Critical.
6.What might be a weakness of AI in creating art works
A.Accuracy. B.Diversity.
C.Creativity. D.Efficiency.
7.Which can be the best title for the text
A.Is AI coming into our daily life
B.Can AI copy masterpieces of great artists
C.Shall we welcome new AI technology
D.Will AI replace artists in the future
