The first thing people saw when they searched Google for the artist Hieronymus Bosch was an AI-generated version of his Garden of Earthly Delights, one of the most famous paintings in art history.
Depending on what they are searching for, Google Search sometimes serves users a series of images above the list of links they usually see in results. As first spotted by a user on Twitter, when people searched for “Hieronymus Bosch” on Google, it included a couple of images from the real painting, but the first and largest image they saw was an AI-generated version of it.
it’s pretty rich in history as a lot of famous (and not-so-famous) art can be; it tells you a lot about the people living during a period, what they thought about the world, how power worked etc.
this is a very dismissive take on this form of art as a whole, and is the kind which really does help the techbros who think that this kind of work and effort could simple be replaced by machines
Eh, I generally prefer paintings generated by an AI most of the time.
