No, your perspective on this is all wrong. The outrage about AI art is not about how it empowers its users.
Rather, the problem is that these systems only exists today because of the involuntary contributions of the very same people who are likely to be put out of business.
It really is about the how the contributors to these systems are being treated. The coders that contributed to Photoshop are analogous to the artists whose work was used to train these models. The difference between them is that the former gave their consent to the contribution, and the latter did not.
- scrollaway 4y agoSo, my perspective on this is all wrong, despite the fact that the original poster wrote, pretty damn specifically, "Automating creativity is so gross. Never mind the fact that these models are trained on stolen artwork and texts." That's it, that's the entire post. Never mind the "stolen artwork" argument, you still have people upset about "automating creativity". So, like I said, it's one part of it.
- legutierr 4y agoMy mistake. Your perspective is not all wrong. You're just focusing on the wrong thing.
