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 get the feeling this applies to the whole thing, really. It's why it's incredibly stupid when AI bros try to claim that these AI learn just like humans, as an excuse to try and suggest that artists learning from other artists is accepted, and therefore taking artists' work without consent to train AI should be. Even if…
first one I found was Under Artists, 908* David Fletcher, game artist at Sony Playstation Edit: * slight number correction, copied the lists out to do quicker searches and the numbering got changed.
Well, apparently tons of VFX artists are out of work these days. Surely there will be at least some among them willing to pick up 'prompting' and combine that with their existing skillset. From then on it's going to be more about lack of functionality in the toolset, I suppose. So the verdict in this writeup seems a bit…
Scary thought: In the future artists will protect their work by embedding anti-AI viruses that will cause harm whenever an AI model tries absorbing/processing their art.
I really don't think anyone gives a crap about the tool itself. I think it's pretty neat they got the thing up and running. When Adobe put out a version stating the dataset was made from artists who were in their stable, it sounded ok. Cept the artists were never asked if they wanted to take part in providing their…
why is cara any different than artstation or deviant art or anything else? If I can right click and save an image, surely the geniuses can still scrape it, right? I bet somebody has a good answer, but I also bet that after some time it will come out that cara (or anything on the internet claiming to be some sort of safe…
there is no law, does not mean there can not be one? there is no law that says ai art has to get marked as such, until there is. and yes lawsuits between artists and artists or artists and companies exist, plagiarism is a thing.
And that'll likely be the limit of it. The value of AI art serves its purpose for concepting and moodboarding. It can be used for more than that though its functionality will be limited. The people who will be most impacted from the AI "taking over" will be those who do art as their day job as in being employed by someone…
