I think "what's art" is another discussion, this is just about ownership. And of course I can also take a camera and take 100 pictures of my ceiling and I'll have copyright without effort, but that's just the price we pay to have photographers who do put effort in be able to copyright their work. And the photos would be shit anyway, so good luck making any money off them.
- scotty79 2y agoSo why don't prompt engineers get copyright on 100 images they effortlessly generate?
- asddubs 2y agobecause generating those definitionally takes no effort, rather than there being circumstances (which with photography i would say are not the norm) where this is the case.
- scotty79 2y agoIf you believe AI generation is effortless try to generate an image that will win any AI art competition and if you succeed not how much time and effort it took. I'd say it's same as for photography. There's huge gap of effort between taking a picture of your ceiling with your phone and taking a photograph that people appreciate.
