The majority of the artist responses were "hard no" in 2024. There's no way the artist demographic such a service would appeal to would be on board with anything even tangent to AI in 2026 (even done ethically) where the professional liability far exceeds the potential revenue.
- bluefirebrand 8mo agoMost artists I have spoken to don't believe it's possible to do this AI stuff ethically Maybe they're wrong but I tend to agree. Or even if it is possible to do it ethically, it still never will be done that way because there's just too much money in behaving unethically
- JAlexoid 8mo agoThe only problem that people see in these models is the money flows. If it all was non-profit - then no one would raise the ethical issue.
- bluefirebrand 8mo agoI don't know I still think cutting artists livelihood from under them with tooling built on top of their work is unethical no matter how you cut it
- Timwi 8mo agoIn a world where artists’ livelihood depends on their output, yeah. But that's not a force of nature. Our society is making the choice of letting them starve for not producing enough art. We need to decouple this. UBI now.
