The generative AI rollout has taught me what happens when the interests of the many intersect with the destruction of the few.
You get steamrolled for defending yourself while you overhear above applause to those who have robbed you of your future.
- kranke155 3y agoIt makes no sense that one is not allowed to make and market a CG Mario movie, but suddenly if you use AI to launder the data it's suddenly ok.
- DonsDiscountGas 3y agoI'm pretty sure if you tried to sell a CG Mario movie Nintendo would sue you into oblivion, and "the neural network did it" would not be considered a good defense by anybody, including the judge and jury.
- kranke155 3y agoSure, but making it possible for the neural network to make the movie (eventually in seconds) is somehow ok? So people can make their own private CG Mario films, as long as they don't try to sell them? Here's my argument - even if the NN only makes the films for private consumption, eventually they'll be so widespread and fast at making them that won't matter, since everyone will be able to watch Mario movies of their own. Is that a future you think will sit well with Nintendo, Disney, etc?
- ctoth 3y agoI don't really care if it sits well with them. do you? In that future, why do we need them? They are already parasites feeding off our collective societal stories. Or did you think Disney came up with all those characters? Maybe the original creator of Snow White should sue.
- kranke155 3y agoOh my lord surely you know Disney has no copyright on Snow White...
- Spivak 3y ago> So people can make their own private CG Mario films, as long as they don't try to sell them? Yes, why not? This is just computer assisted private fanfic.
- d6e 3y agoI think there's a difference between being allowed to draw mario vs being allowed to draw and sell mario. It's completely legal for me to draw mario for my own purposes. It should be legal for me to make an ai draw mario for my own purposes.
- kranke155 3y agoThe issue is if the ai can make Mario games and Mario movies instantaneously, then what’s the point? Eventually you’ll reach a critical mass where rights holders can’t tolerate it.
