A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

All artists are trained on copyrighted work.
except AI isn't human, obviously. so corporations can deploy millions of instances to churn out slop while crediting no one, thus erasing all the cultures that went into said slop.
while all the remaining artists become even more impoverished from the devaluing of their art. there's a name for this behavior if a human was doing it, it's called being a scab
Nobody's art is being deleted, what are you trying to say here?
When there is so much AI slop out in the world that it makes you question whether something is AI or not. That's definitely erasing human creativity.
yeah what it leads to in practice is the original art style of the victim being scrutinized due to "looking like AI art".
like, no, the AI actually looks like this art style because so many techbros stole it without crediting the artist and now everybody thinks that the style belongs to the AI overlords.
it's happened to me a few times where I see gorgeous art and I second-guess myself for a split second when I see certain digital art styles.
that is a horrible experience to have as an art enjoyer and concerning how few so-called "tech enthusiasts" actually value the human beings that led to them enjoying art.
they've been so brainwashed by AI propaganda and bootstraps ideology that they can't imagine a future that's worse than today because corporate tech futurism so often labels cyberpunk futures as utopia
Let's abolish all copyright then, since everything is influenced upon things that came before it. Right?
Yeah, this is what I don't get. "Good artists copy, great artists steal." This is a quote for a reason. Everything is just a remix of something else. Just look at the shit Andy Warhol put out.
Also, you can't copyright AI art, so I'm not sure what the point of paying money for AI art is for.
