Positive points to a tattoo artist using AI, is that it can save time if the artist creates the design themselves.
They can then fit more appointments into the day and create bigger and more detailed pieces.
Gilbert said: “As a studio that is charity focused we have a board of small tattoo designs that cost £20 and £1 of that goes to Dorset Mind.
“Those designs are made using AI and it’s just about sitting and playing with the prompts so sometimes you can simplify it or make it more detailed.
“It does take about six or seven prompts to get it right though.”
Gorman believes the solution is to teach more people about to how use AI and its good for tattoo artists to be integrating it: “The human element is still in there as the artistry in the tattooist’s case is doing it on the skin.
“Generally the art is just one aspect of the job and they will actually be able to spend more time doing that, which is more impactful.”
