Unfortunately, you’re right. These models are beneficial to large corporations, and they do the most harm to the small individual artists who created the content that made them possible in the first place, so it’s unlikely there will be any

Hopefully you understand how artists feel about DALL-E and Midjourney now.

Good! Large corporations shouldn’t be able to profit off of other people’s data without consent or compensation.

There would be no point in keeping the human players around. You may as well just watch the computers play each other (which some people already do, occasionally). We’ve long since passed the point where humans can improve on the moves sugg

If I can take copyrighted images and feed them into an AI, why can’t I take any code I find online and ignore the license terms and feed it into a compiler? How do you justify the existence of something like the GPL?

I'm not a lawyer and I can't say how existing copyright law applies to this situation, but, how is taking images and feeding them into an ML model different from taking library code and including it in your software? In both cases

The impression that I’m getting from a lot of the comments here (and a lot of past discussions about AI art on HN) is that tech people view the art industry as a “challenge”, and they want to use machine learning tools to “defeat” it - eit

That’s definitely part of it, yeah. There’s other factors too, but that’s obviously one of the big ones. So what? FurAffinity’s stated goal with the ban is to protect human artists. Obviously banning something that undermines human artists

I'd be curious to see if you could get that from the AI as well. I tried generating that exact prompt a few times at theartbutton.ai and all the results were nonsensical. For example: https://theartbutton.ai/image/

Well, we’ll see how it performs, if it’s ever made public. The 20B images don’t look that much more impressive than what SD is already doing (aside from the ability to render text), and in some cases they look worse. It’s hard to tell becau

Are you under the impression that right now, as of today, the publicly-available AI models are ready to replace humans for all types of art outside of scientific and technical illustration? Because that's not true at all. The AI can&#

They can just focus on obvious cases: people that upload new images at an astounding rate, people who forget to remove the AI watermarks, and people who simply admit to using AI. No need to turn it into a witch hunt where you accuse everyon

They delivered technology that everyone would have said was sci-fi ~5 years ago. I think some confidence is deserved at this point. I personally remain skeptical of the claims that the singularity is just around the corner though.

Well it’s already been trained on millions (billions?) of images and it still has trouble with plenty of things. Scenes with more than one person in them, or multiple people and objects interacting in complex ways, are the most obvious case
