As a fiverr artist, seeing other artists doing that sort of stuff and ruining the name and legitimacy of fiver is extremely discouraging

Let's not forget that without the millions of digital art and photography that artists post online, the AI would have nothing to work with.

Even the $240 tip artist did not create the art piece he’s delivered… Unicorn is the horse from “Spanish White Horse” by Julia Moll… It’s flipped and with a horn… OMG

The last fiverr image was AI generated. It has the characteristic noise patterns that result in them, some were probably photoshopped, but they left some that are quite noticeable in the rainbow and horse hair. Also the lighting style suggests that it was probably generated with Midjourney (I'm almost 100% sure of that tbh)....

This video was just depressing, not because of the AI, I have no fear of AI at all. But for fiver. Those scams absolutely broke my heart.

I thought, I would find out where the difference lies between the work of an A.I. and a human artist. What I gathered was, you can't trust anyone just because they have a Fiverr account lol

As an artist it is my humble request to everybody, please give work and money only after ensuring that the artist is genuine.

I’m not an artist and this pisses me off. I feel so bad for all creators out there, so many con men ruining reputations.

I'm not worried about AI stealing my job. I'm more worried about Etsy shops stealing it and selling low quality prints of my work.

You should try to generate some AI art and then try to finish it by hand, or use it as a base to paint something in it :0

White horse for the unicorn at the end belongs to Julia Moll it seems "spanish white horse". I would suspect the clouds may be swiped from somewhere as well, this is a photoshop image again. Fiverrs just a bad place for scams it seems, approaching people on their actual pages on say artstation, deviant art, etc etc, might yield better results.

As an artist that works on Fiverr, this is embarrassing :(

Definitely dispute those transactions with fiver if you haven't already. Also Alternate Title: I paid fiver artists $1200 and got scammed.

I think y'all had the wrong approach. You should've ask for the commission of an artist who specializes in x topic and then ask the AI to produce an image based on that, seeing if the artist gets outdone in their own element

Those photoshops were ridiculous! The last one was incredible 🤯🤯🤯

1980: AI will never beat someone at chess, it's to complex 2000: Ok, but AI will never succeed at Go, because it's too intuitive and even more complex that chess 2016: Ok, but AI will never be as creative as real artists because it can only rely on data already created 2022: Ok, but AI will never turn against us and make us to slaves

It's worth pointing out that most of the artists in this video had 0 reviews, which I wouldn't necessarily trust with hundreds of dollars lol. I also wonder if the ai could accidentally include copyrighted images, since some of the stuff just looks like multiple pictures put together into one (but I don't know how it actually works) still, it's cool to see the stuff that ai can put together and it looks like a good tool for quick concept art.

Would like to see this revisited at some point but only with artists who have at least a few reviews, a lot of the scammers here had 0 reviews and you were paying them hundreds or dollars. As someone who works as an artist on Fiverr, you have to start off small, and then if the demand is there you can start charging more, it's the only way to stay competitive. You can't just create a new account and set your starting price as something very high because nobody would trust you (and with good reason, judging by this video).

The fear should not be ai in itself but AI used by scammers like these to saturate the art market and undermine actual artists. Obviously it's gonna be hard to tweak it for them but i believe they might eventually work around it.

Sure, you can still beat the AI if you are an experienced artist. But the availability of such an option will create strong competition for beginner artists, making it much harder for them to be in the field long enough to develop a decent skill.

At 10:50 , that art is also looks like photoshopped "Spanish White Horse" by Julia Moll with some edits and some midjourney background. It was identified by another commenter @Nigel Hirth.

so for the most part this ended up being a competition to see whether humans or AI are better at impersonating real artists

In 9:36 the paintings the scammer used in his profile, are all from an artist called Carlos Ranna, he's my art teacher and its kinda sad seeing his work being used for scamming people.

Watching this video while taking 200$ fiverr project for 10 cartoon illustrations makes me feel relieved that even i use pinterest to get some photo references, in the end i make the illustration fresh and original. I used to draw everything from my own imagination, and image references is just a reference. I draw my own illsutration because i love this and i had choose this thing to be my career. So, the money orientation isn't at the top priority, but the satisfy when i can draw client's brief, and they feel satisfied with my work.

As someone who has used fiverr many times now, and also fell into a few frauds, I can see you doing all the mistakes. ^^'' You chose an artist with 0 reviews, no prewies artworks made on the site and displayed. This is never a good idea. Also if you see someone display lots of different styles over multiple or just in one gig it's usually stolen art. + If skeptical do some image reverse searches and see if you can find the displayed arts from different artist. Also, look closely at the images displayed, most of them feature an erased watermark where the OG artist signed it. Also, someone haggling the price up that drastically is never a good sign. And lastly, DON'T ACCEPT THE PRODUCT! if you recieve the final product and it's clearly a fraud, never press the accept button. If you are not happy press the "i am not happy" Button. If it's fraud,report it to the support and ask for cancellation to get your money back.

When looking at the painting requests you got scammed on, it clear they’ve used a photoshop filter to get that effect as none of the brush strokes correlate to the direction of the colours.

yay back from vacation to another DALL-E Jazza video, what a pleasant surprise! i think it would've been even better if you had put a split screen of the best DALL-E and fiver images side by side at the end of the prompts to make it easy to compare

I'd imagine that those ripoff artists saw the cover of the book "Steal Like An Artist" book by Austin Kleon but never actually read the contents.

Who needs to fear AI when the true horror is art scammers

The unicorn in the Kylearts picture @ 10:50 is taken directly from "Spanish White Horse" by Julia Moll.

I have to say this video makes me worried. I don't like "artists" (most seem to be scammers and not really artists) being put up against these AI programs. It's crazy to see people starting to use these ai programs and not hiring real artists. I feel a video like this may add to that as well. Why hire someone who might not even finish your art when you can ai generate it?! As a freelance artist this movement does worry me. People use to joke about how "the computer just does the work for you" when we draw digitally and now these programs are. Also the fact that they use a data base filled with art, photos etc to make these. Most likely the artists in these databases have not agreed to have their art used for this as well. I just wish as a fellow artist this video was either done a different way or not done at all.

This actually inspires me to continue my career as an artist. And reminds me that it’s not only about being specifically highly skilled, being truly original, truly human really giving it your best to honestly convey message or emotion.. AND doing it As Impecably as possible.. that’s The Hope for an Artist, there will always be someone interested in sincere dedication and honest work

The art at 3:45 looks like a "wombo dream AI", and that can explain why it is unfindable, also that AI is very good at ignoring specific things, like the vase

Gonna be honest, this whole AI art vs human art is scarily reminding me of the plot of Suchart. It's an art game that's been shown off on here, the plot is that you're one of the few human artists, and in-game people will seek you out purely cos you're an actual human. It's a really fun game but it's kinda terrifying that people are actually having to start thinking about stuff like this

Just had a convo about this! As a traditional artist myself, I don't worry about collectors suddenly giving up the desire to own individually created artifacts. The paintings that I've sold the fastest with the most interest were because of the stories behind them, not because they were technically difficult. Concept artists will get hurt, which sucks. People will certainly get fewer of those "sketchy" jobs that pay well ( artists know the ones I'm talking about). On the bright side, poor folk can make art for the book they just wrote. Kids can develop game worlds or inspire themselves with AI prompts. Who knows! It's gonna get weird. But at the end of the day, not many people go into art with the dream of making money. I'll still be doing this shit if no one is buying it. lol

Thank you for tipping the beautifully done unicorn on the rainbow. It was stunning.

You should do a YOU vs DALL-E 2! Make your own illustration based on prompts commented, and then ask DALLE to do their own version! Would "in the style of Jazza" be recognized?

fiverr needs a feature where the stuff that they make automatically appears on their profile, in this case it would show their trashy work dlso people wont fall for it

Seeing the first daguerreotype around 1840, the French painter Paul Delaroche declared: “From today, painting is dead.” When I was a young musician, and Casio had just begun selling digital "instruments" on late night TV, I had a terrible fear that music was dead before I'd even begun my career. As an artist, I don't feel threatened by AI, I feel inspired by it. Any fool can pick up a paintbrush. It's what they _do_ with it that (sometimes) becomes art. AI is just a very cool, interesting paintbrush.

Re: Dall-e and hands If you prompt it to specifically draw close up hands, it will do that just fine. The issue appears when you tell it to draw full human figures - it doesn't know how to place hands in the context of a posed human. Just look at the astronaut and knight paintings generated - the hands have a basic pose at best and indistinct club shapes at worst. Renaissance paintings have delicately posed and beautifully painted hands. The 6th astronaut at 5:18 has one set of wonky fingers and one flipper. From that alone, I would say it has failed to meet the style requirements given in the prompt. Come back when you can paint hands like Raphael 👋

I am 90% sure that the "good" fiverr paintings at 3:50 and at 10:50 were also AI produced, or photobashed at the very least.

I haven’t drawn in an year and seeing all these “artists” making no attempt at what they are paid for, even asking for MORE money for their work, and ends of making poor art hurts a lot. It is such a shame that those who are actually good at their work are underselling themselves… so glad you gave them a good tip. ❤

Dude, honestly? You've got scammers, AI art posing as their own and maybe one actuall artist (that manga thing). That ancient city and this unicorn looks totally like something Midjourney is producing...

Your videos are consistently so good. Enjoyed this very much.

I love how all the 'oil painting' gigs were just people putting on the oil painting filter onto terribly photoshoped, or poorly drawn artworks lol Also 192 dollars digital painting is literally AI generated. ...oh and the last unicorn one seems to be AI aswell... holy shit

You really should dispute those as fraud. Dont let them get away with their scamming.

Great video! I agree it's going to hurt the stock image industry. Man I wish Dall-e was around when I was in college a few years ago doing presentations. I spent a crazy amount of time trying to find just the right royalty-free stock photo for the point I was trying to make in a presentation. I also think it's going to gobbled up a lot of the low-hanging fruit commissions for freelance artists. This is definitely going to put the hurt on amateur and intermediate artists trying to make a living in their craft while improving their skills. The the rip-offs the Fiverr "artists" were committing were horribly hilarious. The question is what's to stop these dubious entrepreneurs from using Dall-e for commissions they are given? I can't help but think this is already happening. Now that Dall-e is available to everyone I would be hesitant to give a stranger $200 to create an art piece for me. How do I verify the work they do originates mostly from themselves and not an AI? Is there code in Dall-e images that is impossible to remove? What about screenshots of Dall-e images? Maybe some form of steganography? I suppose the best practical solution is to demand WIP images.

4:27 Close but I think a better guess would be David Bowie (note the mismatched pupil size and other features)

I dont know if you did it on purpose or not but someone like you who is so well versed in the digital art sphere would know not to commission fiverr artists who ask a lot and have no reviews.

I new fiverr had some scammers here and there but this is absolutely wild. I hope these people get removed from the platform. As for the AI, it did insanely well with the prompts provided

Tha sad thing is that the people scamming on fiverr now, will start using AI, and actually get pretty good results..

The furby one from driopeproject is just insanely good

Is this the end for artists? Nah, it sounds more like the Golden Age for artists who make weird stuff based on other peoples' ideas. Now these _unnamed artists_ have a limitless supply of AI generated prompts. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me.

What the hell- I can’t believe that many “artists” were just ripping off bad stock photos, that’s so sad :c We really need to be supporting these real hard working artists. This is just really upsetting.

This is a good vid for showing people to watch out for scammers. It's best not to pay in full in advance, or scammers who can't art will give you stolen shit or outright ghost you. This applies to so much more than art, always be safe when buying online stuff.

I died laughing at 8:36 hahaha - and then 10:00 happens 😝Just dont order from people with no reviews lol. The $85 one still seems a bit sus to me though, I think they're just better at plagiarizing lol

As a commercial illustrator of 30 years, I think AI is certainly going to be disruptive. It seems to be improving at a breakneck pace. Just a few months ago this stuff wasn't nearly as good. In advertising I have no doubt they will adopt this technology. For the last 30 years ad agencies have pushed tighter deadlines, lower budgets, and unlimited revisions. With rising costs of subscription software and so many programs you need as a professional to complete the job, it's definitely an undervalued occupation. I read an interview with an old commercial illustrator (I think it was one of the hildebrandt brothers) and he said back in his day one good ad agency job would buy you a new house. Now your lucky if it buys you a new video card.

I'm pretty active on Deviantart for years and I now find more and more images created by AIs on there. The interesting part of this is: you still recognize that it's made by an AI whether or not the uploader gave the program credit. There's always something uncanny and oddly surrealistic about it that can't be produced by humans because (I recon) we are too influenced by reality. I don't know how far the AIs are going to evolve and change the quality and overall looks to more match the expectations and skills of these of humans. But I see your point when you say you get more detailed results from humans based on the commission, not only because we understand the unwritten meaning behind the words and can communicate with each other on a whole other level, but we can actually discuss details and ideas, while the AI can only spit out variations that it thinks might fit your expectations - and they are mostly very similar from what I've seen in this video. For as long as AIs can't communicate as metaphorically as we do, with the ability to discuss details the way we do, I believe the need for human artists will not seize to exist.

Gareth's editing at 2:09 is everything. :)

“What artists should be worried about is the thieves of humans!” Well yeah, we have been ranting about that for years on end, but AI hardly seems different. A scammer will badly throw together images that don’t belong to them and pass it off as their own while AI… does that too.

I just recently used Fiverr to commission a tattoo artist to make a custom design for me, and he was absolutely amazing. I’ve done the back log searches to make sure it wasn’t copyrighted, and there is nothing on the internet even close to what he had designed for me. I believe I just lucked out on my first try. I’ve been working with the same artist on building my full sleeve. Im sad that there are people out there that are scammers. Because then you come across a really great original artist and they don’t charge nearly as much as I think they should for the quality they give. I hope this can only get better.

Going back to the fiverr artist ripping images straight from google, I think a huge benefit of AI, is concept creation! You may have a idea in your head and can get a good concept from AI without copyright and go from there. That is what I have been using it for. But also after seeing what you paid for on fiverr.....I think I should start one to help balance the human vs ai side haha. Great video

I'm interested in seeing the possible results coming from feeding an image to a DALL E-type AI and giving it indications on ways to alter it using its logic and repository. Make it a bit of a positive feedback loop: You try to find inspiration by asking the AI an idea, you alter it, then feed it back an ask it to build on it in specific ways, repeat until you consider the image finalized and clean it up. It's like the "variations" button but you have more agency.

You should also try out Midjourney, it creates a lot more "artsy" end results, and usually does better with more abstract prompts. You also have a lot more customizability in Midjourney

Jazza should totally check out the Midjourney AI! the artworks it can make is honestly outstanding.

I'm... definitely feeling discouraged in pursuing art.

There are star ratings on the artist pages for a reason...I've never used that website and it's still that obvious that you can expect dubious quality from the one that doesn't have any rating shown.

True words! ...and thats why I'm close to giving it all up. Years and years of learning. I simply cannot compete against people stealing and faking but better selling themselves. So.... And Dall-e?! Unbelievable what that ai can do. And this is just the beginning of evolving those ais.... ...and take in mind that they said 5 years ago, artist jobs will NEVER blown away by an ai... And now its the FIRST real working thing "they" did with ai. ...for me...I'm simply shocked about how things going

As a very struggling Fiver artist seeing so many scams on that site while I work for days on a 15 dollar order is crushing.

Technically, the AI is using the same 'steal artwork' toolset as the "artists". Only its much better at it, and much better at combining multiple stuff (point raised in replies, all artists use references, so the AI is acting similarly to proper artists in that sense)

Right after you were done showcasing the unicorn painting I got a Google ad that has a unicorn in it😂

standard diffusion released as opensource. i has a very general model to pull from. but if they ever create different models it wll do stuff better. i believe they are already working on an anime model to create even better anime images.

Sorry about that, but I'm a little disappointed. All the artists who did poorly have no rating shown, while the good ones have a five star rating. This somehow makes the whole video a little unbelievable. It seems to me as if especially bad or for plagiarism known artists were selected.

8:35 Please tell me you got a refund for this

I can’t wait for the time where you input your favorite book and get a full film out of it

1:30 I can imagine ‘mysterious hieroglyph’ on the vase

I would love to see more of these videos, amazing as always Jazza! Maybe where you recreate the prompt in your style & interpretation before searching on Dall-e, then offer the Dall-e version & the Fiverr version. Would make for a hell of a video😌

This video has done more to hurt my impression of Fivrr artists than anything and that's a shame. The few people who delivered original art had some incredible work at least, especially that last one.

i think the 84 dollars one you like looks a lot like a midjourney AI image

This exact type of fraud happened to me as well. I ordered a logo and was given a trace of the first google image result for my request. I even gave them a drawing they could use as reference, but they ignored it. I asked them to redo it and they barely did anything. I hate to say it but I don't see myself using Fiverr in the future, especially when I would be better of doing things on my own. Its sad that this is the norm, and that they can get away with it as they do.

All the BAD plagiarism, at those immense prices is really appalling to me. How is this a thing? This is why I keep away from Fiverr.

Such a quality video as always Jazza! Thank you for being kind & seeing the value in others art. I respect & commend you for tipping the artist that truly took the time & effort where others didn’t.

The astronaut floating in space piece by joncmaxwell looks like a stock image with a painting filter on ;D

I have been developing a game and used art breeder to create unique character portraits, then used face generation in daz3d to turn them into unique 3d character with next to no 3d skills. Now add face puppet and I'll get them talking and animated realistically.

This is one of the reasons I’m scared to do anything online involving sharing my art ! As much as I really want to I’m just so wary of people stealing and profiting off my work! And I’m trying to figure out how to start using my art as a income and this makes it really hard

I wish you'd commission actual professional artists you can find on artstation or twitter or reddit or something, instead of wasting money on random scammers on freakin fiverr. Yes it would be a lot more expensive, but you could actually see the massive difference between AI and an actual professional artist.

You should do a video like this one with a platform called Midjourney. Midjourney is a platform which creates super realistic art based on the prompts you give it

jazza loves to do that old man chuckling thing thing with his hand for every thumbnail

I constantly see artists with genuinely good skills underpricing their work just to get a commission yet these scammers charge ridiculously high prices for blatant ripoffs. It's disheartening because people tend to gravitate towards artists that charge more, thinking they're going to get better results, and ignore the real artists just because they charge less, even though they do it because they can't get work.

Thieves is a huge problem. My family sells decorative signs on Amazon with our own original designs and so so so many Chinese sellers have stolen our exact designs and posted it isn't funny. And Amazon barely does a thing to help. It's laughable the help they provide. They keep on stealing our stuff and under cutting the price and sell crap quality that has our name on the design still so people think they're getting our stuff. It's maddening

9:26 basically what ai art industries are doing

Here is my take on A.I Artwork. I was in a creative block for a massive long time ever since my class ended. I gave Midijourney a try to test the A.I for references. It honestly got me back into the groove of painting n making art again using the abstract art it gave me as inspiration. I can see these tools being super helpful when it comes to creative workflows more than taking over and help speed up process on whatever projects people might be working on n with. That is my personal experience n take of A.I assistants as I see them. :)

Conclusion: artist who actually work hard will be just fine with AI being around

11:14 sure this isn't an ai drawing ? the contrasts are a bit too much, the shapes of the clouds seem to be quite randomly generated being very rough or clean without real logic the background merging all together and there are little residues left here and there as if they were little errors. Moreover the guys charging you only 80$ for this kind of sick piece of art is pretty far fetched in my opinion...

7:26 this is perfect as a comparison. To AI skewed stuff like non human interpretation aka less creative works, AI is better, like nearly every single time. But highly creative and unique stuff, human artists blow it out of the fucking park

I will also say, as an artist myself, I have always been pretty annoyed with how so many artists seem to undersell their work. And the thing is, I don't think they realize how much they are hurting other artists by doing that because it leads to people undervaluing that work. So then customers expect it to be cheaper than it's actually worth, and you get them telling other artists their prices are too expensive. It's honestly pretty frustrating. It's why many artists have turned to things like Patreon and just locking their work behind a paywall.

11:26 As Ex-Photoshop artist i might say, it's a "cheap work" why ? There is three things A: Background obliviously a part of real painting, existed before i recognize that painting style, it is NOT artist work. B: Unicorn are, a UNicorn took from some wedding picture colladge, again NOT artist work. C: Rainbow MIGHT be done by artist... But i am doubtful. In conclusion only real work a "Furby Spider With Human Legs Over Tokyo in style of Jinji Ito" what one is 100% original.
