  • This is almost verbatim the same argument they use against piracy saying if people can pirate “no one buys any disks from the store”

    Do you understand the different conext of wanting something to be profitable vs wanting people to know you made the thing you worked to create?

    This is i think a core separation on the issue, and speaks to how little empathy the AI shovelers have for the tools they use trained on the hard work of real human beings.

    I’m not taking credit for it, maybe some people do, but it’s a strawman argument to say everyone does.

    So who are these people crediting when the image they asked to be generated is using art that isn’t credited?

    People who make a moral panic about forms of piracy are basically screaming “Think of the children” as far as I’m concerned.

    Spoken like someone who hasn’t created art great enough that they want their name on it.



  • It’s ultimately trying to justify passing off the work of others as their own by obfiscating the way in which it’s done.

    It’s not worth creating your own art if an AI is just going to rip your style and take credit the second you post it.

    I often find the people who make excuses for AI art theft have never taken the days to make a piece of art that you upload to a community just to see others passing off your work as their own.

    It’s been proven the artists used in the training data can be identified by the art the AI generates. As well as with generted text. It doesn’t copy pixel for pixel or word for word, but it copys identifiable techniques and prose.

    I wouldn’t have as much of a problem with it if every artist agreed for their works to be used, but these bots just scraped the open internet and took everything they could find and that’s the training data.
