Hot take here: they’re not wrong. AI speeds up tons of processes that many traditional artists won’t be able to keep up, just like digital painting sped up tons of processes that traditional painting could not keep up.

This doesn’t mean that traditional art will die. Physical art will surely find it’s niche and it will be sought after by collectors, for example. But in the commercial environment, faster is better and AI will be a factor.

Artists embraced Adobe long enough. It’s time for a change.

I agree but we lack alternatives.
Gimp isn’t there yet (we’ll see after the next big update), Davinci lacks resources (like video copilot for after effects to do something quickly instead of manually doing everything) and it’s pretty expensive if you need something from the paywall, Natron isn’t user friendly, Krita is great for drawing but not so much as a photo editor (most of the tutorials assume you are drawing something), Blender… I couldn’t really get it, felt too much for the small things I do for fun.

Also adobe products are easy to pick and use, even for piracy is very easy to find them, a cracked Davinci… Not so much.

I recently moved to Affinity Photo with no complaints but I’m not a power user.

Pretty much.

Every time I’ve heard “[X] should embrace AI or get left behind” it’s being said by someone making or selling AI (or a product they shoehorned AI into).

So we downvote here when we disagree with an article? Wouldn’t you wanna upvote it so others see the bullshit Adobe is spouting?

I had the same confusion a while back… This is just an article… There’s no point in downvoting the post sharing the article…
