Try telling that to the AI hysterics
Right, so I suppose George Lucas was stealing from all the movies that inspired his work when he made Star Wars. Or when Mel Brooks made Space Balls, as a more blatant example
And the same can be said about generative AI
If it's not redistributed copyrighted material, it's not theft
Right, it produces derivative data. Not copyrighted material.
By itself without any safeguards, it absolutely could output copyrighted data, (albeit probably not perfectly but for copyright purposes that's irrelevant as long as it serves as a substitute). And any algorithms that do do that should be punished, but OpenAI's models can't do that.
Hammers aren't bad because they can be used for bludgeoning, and if we have a hammer that somehow detects that it's being used for murder and then evaporates, calling it bad is even more ridiculous.
And a regular hammer is capable of being used for murder. Which makes calling a hammer that evaporates before it can be used for murder "unethical" ridiculous. You're deliberately missing the point.
I just don't buy this reasoning. If I look at paintings of the Eiffel Tower and then sell my own painting of the building, I'm not violating the copyright of any of the original painters unless what I paint is so similar to one of theirs that it violates fair use.
It's stable diffusion, not a composite. But even if they were composites, I'm allowed to shred a magazine and make a composite image of something else. It's fair use until I use those pieces to create a copyrighted image.
Coming from someone who claimed stable diffusion was a composite image
Find me a single sentence in that entire article that suggests AI art is composites of source data
You can't, because how it actually works is wildly different than how you want to believe it works.
Mhm, I'm sure that's why you couldn't find a single sentence about compositing images
You're either projecting or being dishonest
If it's cherry-picked it should be easy to give me a single sentence, but apparently you can't lol
"your evidence is cherry-picked but I refuse to provide any of my own, why aren't you just trusting me??" very convincing
And I provided evidence the article says something wildly different than what you want it to say, and all you have is "read it again until it says something else" lol
Also voting with two accounts is pathetic
