i am not trying to get rid of this competitor, as i know i can not. I do what i always do. make nice art and hope it will all be good, that there will be people who we work with who value art done by hand and that there will be people who will not. there are already clients who we do not work with for various reasons,…
Unfortunately, similarly to how Kotaku readers and urinalists have no clue about how games are made, AI bros have no clue about the reality of the job as an illustrator or designer and what it takes to work on a project as a team. You currently talk with one of these AI bros that completely does not fit into this pattern.…
What false claim ? THIS false claim. You input (and i talk about input, Image to Image is a feature where you can load an image for further manipulation) a copyrighted image and claim the AI to break the copyright. Seriously? What lie comes next? And the false claim of broken copyright. And the false claim of broken law.…
This sounds about right to me. I mean even before AI art this is how I largely design my own 3d characters. just find a few things that I like and mix together. put a little bit of my own twist on it. I mean, everything that anybody could possibly imagine has already been designed a billion different ways, why should I…
Great post! I am not sure I agree with the quoted part. I think that is more like a result of over-competitive space where the employers have exploited the common youthful desire to fit-in, conform, and prove themselves to maximum extent. It is toxic and I don't think sustainable for a career, which might be part of the…
"Again, this is false claim. AI does not store art in its files or databases. It learns from the files. LAION does not ship with AI. It's the training data. And the training data is collected legally." I didn't say it stores art in its files or databases, nor did I say it was illegal; I said "AI uses art made by artists to…
I don't think humans do anything more than AI really, if you wanted to talk semantics of it. Monkey see, monkey do, there is no magic. Some monkeys see a little more, some do a little more, but AI has seen more than all and can do virtually infinitely. There are things a human can do like anticipate the future and solve…
Something is getting lost in translation here. No one is talking about "forbidding learning". The idea is simply to not use anthropological terms like "learning" and reframing it as "using" in order to get a clearer view on what's going on. On law : law is not something that is divinely dictated and get set it in stone…
@Tiles all the law is threat of violence, and almost exclusively it is used to protect the owning class, not the working class. So if you counter a threat of violence by pointing to the law you are just offloading your violence to somebody else. Doesn't put you above anything like you are not an angry chimp like all the…
