If AI generated Images are of better quality than the alternatives, getty or other orgs rejecting AI won't suppress its rise.
Rather alternate markets for these images will arise quickly, and people will flock there leaving getty behind.
- yieldcrv 4y agoI'm looking at this too. The kneejerk reaction over the last few weeks has been for incumbent communities to start discriminating against AI art due to a standard of creative merit that they can't articulate. Whereas the AI art communities are rapidly iterating with what is a very creative process, that is just new and unfamiliar. I fully expect them to refine and articulate what that is. Controlling Stable Diffusion with variables is honing one's tools, seeding it with a sketch is very creative. Having tools for faster processing is no different than other content creation and what artists do. I think these communities will make their own places very quickly. Some people will monetize, others are just more able to fulfill their creative vision which I'm more a fan of than gatekeeping how much discipline is necessary to do art.
- squeaky-clean 4y agoOnce copyright rules for AI are ironed out, I imagine Getty will join in (or not be able to, if copyright law goes that way). Other commenters in this post have made points about the courts viewing AI as being non-copyrightable, but prompt-based AI works might be considered copyrightable. I think Getty just wants someone else to handle that inevitable legal battle first.
