The tech is here, nobody will take it away. But there are a few things that need to be fixed. The first and foremost would be making sure how its sourcing its inputs. Using an open source library that was made to study, in a commercial sense will have to stop or there will have to be systems in place to compensate. I feel…
wow, OK...I haven't posted in a long while, but with all the recent AI drama going on, I felt I needed to voice some concerns, and bring up some perhaps controversial thoughts and opinions. I feel a lot of the discussion so far has been either based on fear-mongering or naive short-term thinking. We pretty much have two…
Hi there @zetheros , Even though an ill-intentioned scrapper would always find a way to scrape, I do feel like good old regular portfolios have a place here. (and perhaps the geographic location of where to host one's files can matter too, since legislation on data collecting is bound to differ). I did go the Wordpress…
"I'm not seeing how the AI is any different than a person here" It doesn't matter. A human observing a picture to get inspired by is something that is accepted in the social contract, and it doesn't break any law. On the contrary, an entity using a picture that they don't own the rights of and making it a part of a piece…
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.…
@Tiles : I would say that you explaining your actual intent with your use of this tech is far more conductive to discussion than any earlier Photoshop analogy or attempts at anthropomorphizing (right word ?) the tech. So, this tech using/relying on millions of images without consent (regardless of this practice being…
@pior I CAN'T! I have to keep up with all the 3D program, addon, sculpting and texture painting developments because this is a high tech field! They often post AI news. I literally can't get away from all this. Whenever I manage to catch a break, news about AI creeps in and the anxiety comes back. I SUPPOSE the saving…
No, they did not understand. They jumped too short and saw just their own feet. That's why. And most of them ended in jail. Some got even deported to australia. So technology got us where we are. People are getting spoiled and bored out of their mind, living for instant gratification, lip-sync quotes from movies pretending…
Geez :/ I wanted to stop discussing here since it became a bit too heated for my flavour. But this fake news here draws me back in. I am pretty sure that this image was created to provoke this "theft" look by using the image to image method. And not by letting it create by AI from scratch. Image to Image allows you to…
Oh I agree that humans have an inherent skill to be creative and generate new concepts where none previously existed just due to life experiences. Thats something we'll always have over the AI, but my point here was that when it comes to generating what we consider to be original art, what the AI is generating and how it…
