Thats not what ad hominem means. Look, you had a bad take on a hot topic and you tried to convince people with no effect. That's fine, we all have opinions and sometimes they are stupid. What makes a community work is when you realize that everybody disagrees with you, then you just shutup about whatever it is. Same thing…
All this means is work that's claimed to be straight out of ChatGPT, Midjourney, or StableDiffusion have no copyright protections. Those 1,000 AI generated image reference packs have no copyright protections. If a book claimed to use only AI generated images, you could use the images and text in isolation, but the…
i agree its just one small facet of the larger race to the bottom we are all stuck in. thats what i was talking about earlier in the thread. but sadly people tend to only care about things once it effects them directly. an artist has their job threatened and suddenly culture is doomed. but when countless others before went…
Clearly they don't though. At all. They never have and probably never will. I am still not sure that even you are following me as your responses don't seem to make sense. But maybe it is me!
@artquest it's actually just as difficult to get anything specific out of AI as it is to learn how to use photoshop or maya or any other advanced piece of software. How on earth did you reach this conclusion?

If market value I think i'd disagree because there is never going to be a market for anybody to do things in a slower way. I mean, there would be some niches,…
Digital art I think has long lost its value due to not only inherent issues such as the ability to easily duplicate files, but also issues that cropped up over time such as sheer oversaturation due to the social media mindset of 'gotta make a new piece every single day to outdo the other guy'. Ultimately all thats…
The problem that needed to be solved is that capitalist require labor to make more profits, but labor is whiny and wants things like dignity, paychecks, and water. Which of course is a major insult to an antisocial personality disorder mother fucker who firmly believes that all things on earth belong to them only. People…
"or learn to use AI as far as is practical to make yourself more competitive in the rat race" That's a deeply flawed line of reasoning though - no one is becoming more competitive by "learning to use AI". If anything that's probably the most counter-productive thing an artist can do. "... first they come off as elitist and…
