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…
I think AI is going to kill the internet as we know it before it kills jobs in game art. It's so easy and cheap to create massive amounts of noise, propaganda, and imitate real people, we're getting to the point people are assuming most random online comments are probably from a bot.

That's quite a good summary. It does go to show some of the faults I find with AI bro "it learns/is just like a human". The critical thing missing is actual understanding. Thinking about it that way, it feels a bit less of a threat than it has done, but even if it can't do those, there's still a tonne of work it can and…
What I think is, current business owners will simply use AI to make the decisions, however they'll still want their cut of millions of dollars. This will continue to drive poor decision making, and the basic pleb will see no benefit whatsoever. It's to be expected that new tech, regardless of positive potential, is…
Why would you approve of that? Assuming it is, as it looks to be, AI, the technology is being used for historical revisionism. You can't just call yourself a documentary and then start showing photos of things that never happened. Especially using it to make this narrative of her being happy and smiling when, as far as…
look guys, artists aren't nazis except for that one sussy baka Austrian no one cares about. Lets not put blame on anyone for how the industry is today; this is a systemic problem, the natural result of like two decades worth of supply exceeding demand. Shittons of starry-eyed students looking to get in, and simply not…
@OccultMonk I agree largely with what your saying on the blog although there are few things I don't. Lets not kid ourselves here and pretend like we had a paradise before AI came out. Go to social media websites, Artstation, Youtube, DeviantArt especially, etc. Can you honestly say those places weren't already flooded with…
I appreciate that Verge article, Tiles. It's a good read. Although I found it odd that while they talk about the amount of "human input" as a key criteria for copyright for images that ai spits out...It completely skips over that same criteria in the following section about the input side/training data. I sort of wished…
I've seen controversies in American voice acting a few times where characters who were PoC were voiced by white people. In recent years, there's been efforts to replace those VAs with people matching the ethnicity of their characters, or at least closer than some random white person. That's not something I really agree…
Really, I've been thinking about the subject for a few days now, and I'm not sure whether to see this technology as an ally or as the nemesis of the artistic industry. What I do know is that currently, as it's presented, I only perceive it as a money-making machine for the companies behind it. I see it more as an…
