Kinda sucks people will likely no longer upload easily scraped 3d models to the internet. I wonder if someone is going to try to scrap 3d assets from games and use that to feed a model.
To be fair, regarding existing tools like content-aware fill : I personally have no idea if the tool is purely an algorithm, or if it does use a model trained on images. But if it is, then one can assume that Adobe was likely clever enough to train it on images that they had the right to use. But perhaps this is irrelevant…
Saying that 99% of the output is garbage makes no sense. It is a work in progress and its part of the AI generation process to reroll and iterate & prompt craft to get the results you want. It takes time and iterations. Just like any other process creating art does. Its the same with sculpting. Does the image below look…
Well ... not sure if the audience here "will like these" considering that these images are only possible because the model spitting them out has been trained on CG renders without any consent from the original artists. Anyways - not even a few months in and this kind of images is already incredibly boring, somehow ...
This will obviously have an impact on artists - so of course some of the people involved will be artists, just doing their best to do what they've always done. And while I appreciate and respect Pior glancing over this portion - I'm gonna disagree with your last bit. Like Pior said, it's subjective, but this is not like…
I think it really comes down to the end use case. So far, seeing these images provides a good reference point for inspiration, or even concept art for 3D art creation. Don't know how they would be directly used to create something consistent, not to mention that MJ or stable diffusion can't generate a character art sheet…
Mind you, Corridor Digital also trained the generator on stolen frames from a Vampire Hunter D movie, and their response to the backlash was to passive-aggressively 'like' posts defending image generators on Twitter instead of engaging in any sort of dialogue. And then they made a tongue-in-cheek follow-up where they used…
nobody says it always will produce something that is copyrighted, or meaningfull whatsoever. But it might, because it only knows what it has been fed. inside say a studio environment where the studio feeds it with their own content, it becomes a safe tool to use, but filled with data is has zero clue about like midjourney…
I disagree. Why would it not be important to think about ethics? Especially with the level of disruption you describe, it becomes even more important to discuss ethics or legality. I never said that Id like to file a lawsuit. I am a subscriber of midjourney myself and I enjoy their tool, but imo a discord about the ethics…
I understand your concerns. But as told, i don't share it :) But if it is, then one can assume that Adobe was likely clever enough to train it on images that they had the right to use. This is still the point where i heavily disagree. AI does not use Images. And so it does not need a right here. There is not a single…
