Nothing is being "stolen." Learning is not theft.
Imagine applying OP's reasoning to calculus or programming. We'd all be "stealing" from Leibniz and Ritchie, and progress would be crushed.
- createTheFuture 3y agoWhile I do agree with you in the math areas, the problem with this is different. These image generators are creating new images that are extremely similar, and without credit ever. It would kinda ruin an artists job if a bot can make everything they can make in hours, but in a matter of seconds.
- glowingvoices 3y agoNot really, no. Firstly, such image-generation models are based on mathematical concepts (it's literally math all the way down). I don't see the problem you raise about artistic jobs, because it doesn't seem like they're disappearing anytime soon. It's not the AI model that'll replace artists, but other artists using the AI models. Also, could you please cite your statement about "extremely similar images" being created?
- rich_sasha 3y agoRegardless of what you call it, it seems a reasonable wish for an artist for their work to be broadly available to humans and not used to feed an AI algo.
