FAQ
Will content I post inside the app be added to a database, used for AI training, used by a third party apps, and used in marketing and promotional materials?
No, the app does not use anything you post in the app to train AI models, for third-party providers, is not added to databases, and is not used in marketing or promotional materials for Studio.
What is the app built on?
The app is built on Studio.
Why did you decide to create the app, did you approach Studio?
We did not approach Studio, this was something that Jay Clouse set up for the people in his community, The Lab. His company, Creator Science established a relationship with Studio.
I am working with a cohort with others building their apps inside Jay’s community that he is leading. We each have a Studio representative who works with us to develop the app.
Why use technology that goes against creativity and originality?
Our app does not generate images, or try to create it’s own original artworks. The app is basically a search engine & educational structure.
With over free 2500 videos and over free 900 website pages, our audience has been struggling to find the info they need in all that content.
The app provides accessibility as many artists cannot afford Art Club.
Why are you not hiring human developers and coders?
If we had to hire a team of developers and coders as freelance contractors, we simply wouldn’t have the app. Before now, building an app simply wasn’t possible without doing this.
Building an app from scratch, and hiring contractors would easily cost $500k. Art Prof is a small business and we operate on a shoe string budget.
Art Prof is not a giant corporate company that can afford to hire human developers and coders to build an app from scratch.
Does the app do web searches or reference other sites?
No, the app is trained only our content; it does not do web searches, unless I have manually entered a specific site.
Sites I have manually entered are trusted sites like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and vetted journalism like Artsy.
We have spent hours on the app, and I have worked to manually add specific things and fix items that are not correct.
Are there actual programmers and developers working on the app?
There are actual programmers and developers at Studio who build the app. The app is basically like using a template that you would use to build a website with. The content is placed inside the app within their template, and then we go in and customize the content.
We go in manually to fix and add things to ensure that the app isn’t saying something ridiculous and to add specific information that we think is important for a given subject.
Can someone use this app without the AI generating anything?
No. In onboarding, the app will ask you about your interests, and then generate a personal art curriculum. The app will adapt to your interests, and you can change your interests any time with the coach.
The app can generate prompts and lessons (trained on our lessons and prompts) but is trained to never generate art, or claim to create something original.
Please report any problems by emailing Prof Lieu.
Fun things
Artist Prompts
The app can create prompts based on an artist, a great way to get inside the mind of an artist and try something you normally wouldn’t do.
