G*MIC (a plug in for GIMP and krita) does that thing with a few filters since years ago, if I'm not mistaken. I've used it to put flat colors on my drawings.

Fully colored printed manga wouldn't happen not because of resources but because printing costs are still a thing no matter how efficient the process gets

>>89458034
Yeah, I forgot to add that part plus color printings tend use higher quality glossy paper.

I didn't know how exactly it would go, so I went a little sloppy with the colours

bumpin to see more examples posted

It's not working for me.

Using Firefox, and everytime I upload an image it starts saying "Now Coloring..." next to the Colorize button and it won't let me use the brush on the image. It just drags the whole image.

Pretty soon computers will be able to draw things too. It's a sad future for humans when they have robots to create art for them.

It's basically just a smart fill bucket? Might be useful.

>>89459886
Humanity's fault for thinking there's some arbitrary creative element that only humans have which would prevent AI from producing creative works.

We can already procedurally generate piano arrangements that exceed classical compositions in both quality and complexity.

Not really. This is about the same thing as a fill bucket just more advanced. Still requires human input and should be edited afterwards for the desired affect.

>>89466792
it already blends skin tone for you and it's at the hands of mostly amateurs.

>>89466806
No it doesn't it just gives you a soft gradient that's mostly insubstantial and could be done in maybe a minute. It's just something to make working a little bit faster for artists. Or it would be if it didn't apply that gross texture to everything.

>>89465255

Almost every american comic (with some exceptions) is already professionally colored as opposed to manga where black and white is the standard.

It's easier but art imho doesn't equal craftsmanship. I know there is a creative feedback loop between the vision you have and the act of drawing.
But do think that the result counts.
I know, some mangaka just retrace photographs but if the result looks great and I get more chapters each year then I don't care.

The only similarity is that they are both over-hyped. They're obsessed with different things, Shadman with anal/futa and ShindoL with ntr/mindbreak/corruption. ShindoL's art is also much more lewd with regards to fetishes and draws actual stories, although he doesn't parody characters as much as Shadman does.

I'm kid of wondering if AI is proof that communism is humanities endgame.

>>89498748
I hate these videos, they always miss the most important facet of all this:

Say, how much work and how many people do you think is needed to keep something as simple as an internet explorer alwasys up and working, and bugfree? How many people would be needed to mantain these AIs? Or maintaining the servers, and hell, the increasingly complex distributed servers that will house these AIs?

And how many people do we have right now capable of doing that, versus the ammount of human based infrastructure that we will need to replace every other job? And /why/ don't we have them yet?

The industrial revolution started with simple farmers being able to do in hours what a skilled artisan would need days to do, creating the very machines that displaced said farmers. The AI revolution starts with even you average high school drop-out being able to program and maintain the AI replacing cashiers in his local supermarket.

The only solution here, and a temporary one at that, is to migrate our whole workforce into programming.
And the real issue here, is wether all our workforce can be accomodated in this field, and for how long.

The singularity isn't AIs capable of replacing human jobs, it's AIs capable of replacing AI jobs with even better AI.

>>89498951
of course humans are going to end sooner than later by replacing us with robots. There is no need for mankind in this universe at all. If there IS some kind of greater purpose a species can provide, then robots created by us humans are the better choice to do it.
The only thing we can do is to make the short life we(as a species) have as enjoyable as possible.

They say in the video that you need less of those. AI's can program and you can scale that pretty easy. A supercomputer twice as fast isn't twice a complicated or need twice as many service people.

This is what I've been feeling too. It's nice that machines and automation have made complex tasks so simple today, and it's cool to see new innovations and progress. But on the other hand, I can't shrug away this thought that mankind is making itself obsolete, purposeless, and overly dependent on machines. Kinda wondering if we'll eventually turn out like the humans from Wall-E.

>>89500764

>>89466723
Reminds me of the Judge Dredd story where an artist goes to Mega-city in order to try and get a job at an art publisher, only to have his style perfectly copied by machines in such a way where there was no way you could sue the company, then kicked out back onto the streets and told "tough luck, kiddo".

I don't think there are any safety concerns whatsoever with self driving cars. So far they've been incredibly safe and haven't had an accident caused by the self driving car a single time. When this stuff starts getting popular it's going to be the death of the lower classes. I don't know what they're going to do to compete with every one of their jobs being taken by robots but it's not going to be pretty.

>>89497846
>>89499220
These are pretty nice! You can do some really quick and nice stuff with a little bit of tweaking by hand. Just getting it straight out of the program pretty much always looks like ass.

>>89503612
I don't thinking it's the lower classes that's going to feel the impact of those technologies the most. With all that deep learning shit cushy white collar jobs will go before the minimum wage blue collar ones.

>>89503759
Not really. Most automation will be done in physical industry as it already has been done for years. You don't need people building cars because robots can do it much faster. There's also automation that will come in jobs like accounting that just deal in numbers and a decent low tier AI can do it well as well. But you can be sure that the white collar won't surrender their jobs so easily if they can't profit off of not doing then.

>>89503716
thing is if you're skilled enough to tweak it you're skilled enough to do it fast enough from scratch and with better control over which color goes where.

This is more of a novelty for non-artists. Like how everyone got really excited when they learned how to do lensflares and filter effects on their pirated copy of photoshop back in the 00's.

>>89503796
Most white collar workers don't have any say about what happens in their industry. Mark my words, a lot of doctors are going to lose their jobs to computers before fast food cashiers do. Google have already shown that their software is better at remote diagnosis than your average doctor and that's even not a direction they've have focused on.

>>89504030
>a lot of doctors are going to lose their jobs to computers before fast food cashiers do
Maybe. There are already automated burger flippers and cashiers, though.

>>89454879

It's meant for lineart, not for things already shaded
And you've got to learn how to give it the proper hints: open borders behave better if you've got each color confronting each other so they don't bleed where they shouldn't; random color splotches on the background are fixed with white color hints; stuff like that.

So of course you're going to fuck up your wall if you try to hammer a screw in

>>89504583
The problem is that with the way technology works automatic doctor server will be much cheaper than the automated burger flipper.

>>89506580
auto surgeons and ai doctors are 10-15 years away at the earliest, its too hard to diagnose and prescribe people and the risk of failure is too high

that being said if we got them this year i would be overjoyed

>>89506580
>works automatic doctor server will be much cheaper
That isn't the number one concern. The concern is how quickly investment will pay returns. If an auto-burger-flipper+cashier can replace everyone but the manager at every single fast food restaurant, that'll be a much greater savings to fast food chains than not having to pay much fewer doctors, even if the doctors are payed much more.

Why is this impressive?

No fucking comparison. Shindol writing and art are fucking LEAGUES above Shad. Shindol's anatomy is beautiful, the erotic poses he makes, the way the characters suffer or explode on orgasms is masterful. Shad on the other hand is just your typical western porn artist. You can easily see how he copies many other hentai artists (including Shindol) but with awful, AWFUL anatomy.

Writing wise, yeah, Shindol can actually write stories. Sadist histories that is, but good and interesting ones. Shad is just a horny gamergater being vulgar for the sake of vulgarity.

So yeah, no way to say both are similar, not even close. Shindol's works are beautifully perverse. Shad is just webcomic garbage.

>>89510467
This. Shad art is disgusting.
I would argue that ShindoL is capable of creating moving stories that evoke more than just suffering though, as seen in their series of stories focusing on the handicapped.

I don't get the hype. At best it takes away a step or two from the process, but it doesn't remove human input entirely. And you still need to know what you're doing to actually take advantage of it.

>Robots/AIs replacing humans entirely
You still need humans to maintain and fix them. Is gutting entire occupations worth the price of replacing them with glorified IT departments. Would the world ever have enough code monkeys to even try?

>>89511357

More like when the independent artist who knows he sucks at coloring and wants to color his pieces

This won't get to the point of having a corporation taking a job field away even 20 years from now

>>89511357
Robots can be made to fix robots easily. And yes if you're a rich businessman who doesn't need to work replacing all your employees with AI is definitely worth it.

This thread is doing something to my brain. For some reason when I see a picture online now I think "did they use that shitty program to color this?" and then I catch myself.

I don't care how much this upset you but you can't stop it.

the future of mankind is living in a small cubicle hooked up to the computer simulating virtual reality. the perfect reality where you could do anything. this IS the future.

wall-e was wrong in that it was actually implying humans will actually care enough to even lift a finger to do something. no, the future will be like that black mirror episode with interracial lesbians (because charlie brooker is obsessed with interracial fetish) everyone is hooked to the computers having fun while the robots do the petty job of the humans. the way of the future. this is where the humanity is coming.

When AI comes along that is able to make stylization with no input from humans then the AI will have reached the level of humans itself at which point there's no point making a distinction.

>>89454927
That's impressive. It actually looks decent.
