I really like this cave one with the rainbow stream. Very psychedelic.

These hallways are a great representation of what one can see while on DMT for sure.
As a graphic designer, I find 99 percent of AI art to be kind of lazy, dull and boring. Once you've used it a lot and you've seen other people's AI generations, they all start to look the same.
As Void states, you can sift through those threads and get an idea of how some people feel about AI. Some people are extremely sensitive to it's existence because of how it sources artwork from thousands of unnamed and uncredited artists, and question the morality of it's functionality.
Myself on the other hand believes the situation will course correct itself. I mean it will get to the point where the average person will be able to pick out AI art from real artists art, it's not that difficult. Heck, even during the Renaissance people were making fake art, copy cats, replica's etc, and people could tell back then.
But I have used it a lot, and if you figure out how to manipulate the AI to source artwork styles that fit what you're trying to replicate, it can get pretty close.
I don't think anyone should be paid to create AI art, but I don't see the problem in messing around with it for fun. I'm excited for the first versions of Video AI art where you can take any video and apply wild art styles to it. I have made over 250 videos in the last 20 years, and it will be fun to load in some of my videos to see what I can do with them. Like a skateboarding video I made that I can add a rotoscoping effect to. That would be awesome, because rotoscoping takes HUNDREDS of hours just to do a minute or two, depending on how many FPS you are doing and how intricate the art is.
I remember seeing these Foo Dogs guarding a temple that had wild faces and politely ushered me out of the DMT realm because I was drunk when I smoalked. And it wasn't exactly like this, but it's very very very close. I made this in Photoshop from scratch, sourcing the foo dog mask image at least.
Attached, was me trying to replicate what I saw on DMT regarding the foo dogs, but I couldn't get very close. It sure does help having it as a tool though!
