NFTs have been pretty quiet for a while now, but you never know with crypto. AI-generated art is everywhere, and it’s kinda taking over, right? But if someone makes NFTs out of that AI art, could it blow up? Or is it just another trend that’ll fade away like the last NFT craze? Not to mention the legal stuff... what if someone gets hit with copyright issues for using AI that trained on copyrighted material?

Totally! AI art is just another way to take people's money. Someone whips up an AI-generated NFT, and bam, they sell it. Feels like a scam to me... just a way for some folks to pump out a bubble. There are loads of platforms for this AI art, but has any of them really gone viral? Nope. People see through the nonsense.

I haven’t seen a viral AI-generated NFT either, but if it’s legit art, maybe... remember that "Tung Tung Sahur" that blew up? That was a real artist's work. But yeah, AI stuff isn't copyrightable, so it’s all fair game for profit.

Promotion is key for NFTs going viral. Teams need to get influencers on board to spread the word, even if it’s all fluff. I’ve watched projects go from bad to good based on hype alone. It’s wild. But honestly, whether it’s AI-made or not, you can’t really tell what’s legit anymore.

I knew we’d reach this point. AI is super creative, and now everyone’s churning out NFTs with it. Expect a flood of projects, but yeah, most will lose money after the hype dies down.

Nah, I don’t think so. Even if AI art NFTs could go viral, people are already tired of NFTs in general. We’re avoiding them like the plague now. If something does blow up, I’d still be cautious. Maybe some big-name influencer might spark interest, but I doubt its longevity.

AI-generated NFTs are already here, right? This whole bull run had tons of them, but they crashed hard once the hype faded. No copyright issues too since AI art isn’t protected. Pretty much anyone can create it.

I don’t think NFTs are coming back. In the past, they were made by real artists, but with AI, it’s just too easy. There’s no rarity now, and if everyone can make NFTs, what’s the value? Maybe prompts could be unique, but that’s about it.

Why buy AI-generated NFTs when you can get similar stuff for free or with a subscription? The NFT market is a gamble, and I wouldn’t bet on it for the long haul.

This could be the end of NFTs. AI will create a ton of them, and soon everyone will be making projects. That’ll just kill interest since they’ll be everywhere. Hard-to-generate NFTs are valuable, but if they’re easy to make, they lose worth.

It’s worse than you think. If you thought the 2021 scams were bad, wait till you see this. AI-generated art takes days to create now, which means endless scams popping up, draining retail liquidity.

AI-generated NFTs are not even new anymore. They were already around, usually tied to some utility, like gaming or quests. But on their own? Not worth a dime without the right backing.

People thinking about buying AI NFTs are a bit off their rockers. Human-made NFTs are already sketchy, and AI versions just scream scams. It could turn into another meme coin situation where scams rule the day.

AI art has had its moment, but it never really grabbed attention. Sure, some thought it was cool, but it lacks that special something. Scarcity is key, and with AI, it’s just oversupply of pretty pictures.

The real value lies in the tools used to create stuff, not the content itself. Anyone can make AI art, so why pay for it? The hype seems risky and isn’t sustainable long-term.

AI art might have some uniqueness, but if everyone can replicate it, what's the value? Turning it into NFTs just proves ownership, but that won’t sell if everyone can make the same thing.

NFTs are done, man. No one cares anymore, and whether it’s AI or not, it’s all just noise. Investing in NFTs is a bad idea at this point. Just steer clear of them.

For sure, NFTs are a lost cause. No hype left. Even if they’re AI-generated, they don’t have that special feel. I’d rather invest in Pokémon cards than this junk. Plus, why buy one when you can just create it yourself?

Not really. NFT's are gone, they are dead, they are not getting any attention anymore and they will not get any attention anytime soon. So it doesn't matter if it's AI or not, it doesn't matter what kind of approach you take with it, eventually it will be nothing yet again. So that is why there is no reason why we should be considering ever to invest into any NFT ever again. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you will end up with some NFT investment chance, just run away from it if possible.

Nah, NFTs are done. There’s no hype anymore. They’re just like some alts that won’t recover even in a bull run. Even more so if they’re AI generated, it’s not appealing and feels like there’s nothing special about them. I’d rather take the risk and buy Pokemon or One Piece cards instead. Also, why buy one if you can make it yourself, right? Others would probably think the same. AI generated NFTs or not, the NFT era is over. There's no what if.
