TL;DR

When it comes to AI image generators, the possibilities are endless. However, there are also a number of downsides. With oversaturation, for instance, it can be challenging for artists to stand out. There's also a new demand for art storage and security against hackers trying to steal your unique NFT creations.

Introduction

Artificial intelligence (AI) has had a growing role in the art world of late. With algorithms that can analyze and learn from vast amounts of data, AI can combine different art styles and components to create new and innovative pieces.

The rise of AI is transforming many industries, and the world of NFTs is no exception. AI-generated art is becoming increasingly popular in the NFT ecosystem, allowing anyone, regardless of experience and skill, to create unique digital artwork.

What Is AI-Generated NFT Art?

AI-generated NFT art refers to digital artwork created using AI algorithms that can analyze and learn from large amounts of data. For example, they can combine different art styles, including color palettes, shapes, and textures. As a result, AI-generated art can be completely different from existing styles and techniques common in the current art ecosystem.

The NFT component of AI-generated art pieces means they can be authenticated using blockchain technology, and they can come in the form of images, animations, and even dynamic NFTs that respond to user input.

AI Applications in NFT Art

The advancement of AI is already visible in the NFT industry as an influencing factor behind some creative collections and new projects. While the techniques are generally not yet widespread, the potential impact of AI can be broken down into the creation of NFTs, quality control, and verification and authentication. 

Creation

AI can be used to create unique NFT art but instead of tools like brushes, paints, or even digital illustration software, you use words or "prompts" to do so. Once the art is ready, you can showcase it worldwide and even sell it through channels such as NFT marketplaces.

The two key technologies behind AI art are prompt engineering and generative AI. Prompt engineering is the process of designing and refining the text prompts a natural language processing model uses to initiate a conversation and guide the user to a specific outcome.

Generative AI refers to the generation of images or other media based on various rules or parameters. These predefined constraints can be based on existing data or patterns, or be designed by an artist to create something original. 

An AI image generator can also personalize NFT art by listening to the user's preferences. Because this type of artwork is created specifically for the user, it's typically a one-of-a-kind piece that can't be replicated.

The process could look something like this:

  1. The user provides information about their preferences, such as their favorite colors, styles, and interests.

  2. The AI generator generates unique artwork based on these preferences.

  3. The user mints the generated artwork as an NFT on a blockchain-based platform.

Creation example: Bicasso

Bicasso, for instance, is an NFT image generator that utilizes the power of AI to enable users to create unique digital art based on pre-defined prompts. Users can also upload base images for Bicasso to creatively enhance. In addition, Bicasso has an NFT minting feature that allows users to mint their generated images on the BNB Smart Chain, which are then automatically stored in their wallets.

Bicasso uses a special type of deep learning, a text-to-image model that can generate new images based on a predefined training dataset. It first decomposes the images in its training sets into random noise. Then, when a user enters their instructions, the model reverses the process and removes the noise based on predictions to construct a relevant image. Learn more about Bicasso on the Binance Blog.

Quality control

AI can also aid in quality control in NFT art creation, ensuring that the final product meets certain standards and is desirable to collectors.

For example, AI algorithms could analyze NFT art images and identify potential issues such as low resolution, pixelation, or distortion. AI could also be used to analyze the composition of NFT art to ensure that it meets specific aesthetic standards.

Verification and authentication

AI can be used to analyze digital art files to verify their authenticity. For example, it could help verify the authenticity of an NFT art piece by analyzing its blockchain transaction history to ensure that the NFT is indeed the original and not a duplicate.

In addition, AI can help analyze the content of NFT art to ensure that it’s original and does not violate any copyright laws. As a result, buyers can have greater confidence in the provenance and value of the artwork they purchase.

AI algorithms can also use the sale and purchase data of NFT art to analyze market trends and provide personalized recommendations; this improves search results, minimizes the chance of fraud, and enhances the overall user experience.

The Potential Downsides of AI in NFTs

While AI can potentially enrich the NFT art ecosystem, there are also possible downsides. For example, the use of AI can result in an NFT ecosystem that lacks originality.

AI image generators can create infinite variations of a single artwork, leading to an oversaturated market and making it difficult for artists to differentiate themselves from one another.

Another common concern is that AI-generated art may lack the human touch typically found in traditional art. This diminishes the emotional connection between the artist and their art, which can make their work seem less authentic and personal.

AI-generated art’s dependence on technology is also a concern, as a technological failure could lead to the loss or theft of an art piece.

Conclusion

AI’s impact on the NFT ecosystem can change how digital art is created, sold, and verified. However, there are also concerns that AI-generated NFTs could lead to an oversaturated market and a lack of originality. As the use of AI in the NFT ecosystem continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how it changes the way we view and interact with digital art.
