"How to Cope When You’ve Been Replaced by AI" (Original Painting, 20in. x 16in.)

“How to Cope When You’ve Been Replaced by AI” (June 2024, Acrylic on Wood Panel, 20in. x 16in. x 1.5”) original acrylic painting by LOZ CITY.

About this Painting: This painting, paradoxically inspired by AI, is meant to shed light on the mental health of artists as AI becomes more widely used in place of real people.
Despite this piece being visually appealing, the AI-inspired design is also excruciatingly flawed, as AI artwork often is. The random archway in the background, the unnaturally shaped pills, the unrealistic sizes - all abnormalities that you might find in artwork made by AI.
This acrylic painting, aptly named, “How to Cope When You’ve Been Replaced by AI,” acts as commentary on the mental health challenges that artists face in the age of AI. AI references real artists’ works (often without the artist’s consent), and it delivers an algorithmic masterpiece more efficiently than is humanly possible. Consequently, real artists are feeling the immense pressure of this new reality - not only financially, but mentally and emotionally, as well.

Painting has a partial Matte finish (background) and partial Satin Finish (Bottles), and it is 1.5” thick. It is a lightweight wooden panel and it can easily be hung with 1-2 nails.
