A while ago we had a post with a comic that was a bit controversial due to it being generated by genAI, but we did not explicitly have a rule against it.
We wanted to discuss this and ask the community, but this apparently had already been a topic on feddit.uk for awhile and they have made a instance rule about it (announced in this post).
Since buyeuropean community is on feddit.uk, the feddit.uk rules apply to this community and therefore I wanted to announce this new rule so it doesn’t come as a surprise.
Copy of the post body text from the announcement of this rule on feddit.uk:
So no:
- AI generated memes of images
- AI generated answers to questions
edit: this applies to feddit.uk communities, we won’t block AI art communities on other instances or sanction our users for posting on them.
What’s your take on AI like Adobe’s Firefly? it’s supposedly trained on their own licensed stock images, the artists get paid and they can opt-in / opt-out.
Edit: How on earth do people downvote a question? I want to know something. Why bury my inquiry? Did you guys actually read my post? I’m not defending any company. I’m ASKING about what the company claims, to LEARN.
It was not, their claims are not verifiable as they also used “third party datasets” without disclosing which ones. Also supposedly opt-out options appeared after they used their stocks to train/fine tune Firefly which contradict their promise of notifying users before doing so and likely illegal in most European countries. To add to that, their stocks are not curated/moderated and anyone can upload the whole collection of an artist there without agreement (opt-out is a deeply flawed system that protect no one), not to mention that the “pay” the contributors received was absolutely ridiculous…
Thanks for clarifying. Very informative. I agree with your POV, it’s logical. I still don’t get why people downvoted my question.
