Losing a market like the US probably soon to be followed by the E.U. isn't something that will be taken lightly. China is also already regulating, for different reasons, but still. 3 huge markets
Pretty much this, the people at the top who push this technology are glorified idea guys who buy into the hype on how it could change everything. I have friends in other tech fields where their bosses and managers try to push this stuff because it will make things so much easier and better somehow. Then when they are…
Oh, I am absolutely not saying that Cara is *the* solution - as a matter of fact I am not planning to join it anytime soon since I have my own self-hosted folio anyways. But I think it is well worth keeping an eye on, and the mere fact that 700 000 artists ditched IG for it in a matter of days says a lot about how quickly…
I've said something like this in the other thread. The way I see it, as soon as you use a load of disney cartoons as training data for your disney style AI twitter pfp generating app you've made money off disney's IP and they ought to be able to sue your ass for it in the same way they can sue your ass if you put mickey…

I can't go into much detail because an official response will be published soon, but I am proud to say that Adobe's AI efforts have, are and will be "clean", the data we use to…

Artists and creators will be harmed economically, and it’s nearly certain that industries will be disrupted or even destroyed, although perhaps it’s too early to say which ones and how soon. It’s possible that the…
I think the one advantage human artists will retain is the ability to leverage shape language, which is the seed of novelty in design. Not that AI can't comprehend it, but it's intangible enough that training for it will be difficult and integrating it into a prompt is nearly impossible. I don't see us getting any iconic…
It's both : there is a huge market/desire for people to be able to take a picture of themselves and have their Madden avatar look just like them. As a matter of fact these things have been attempted before with crude photoslapping. And then there's indeed the fantasy/anime avatars for VRchat and Vtube - but I can guarantee…
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…
