Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The question about the legal and moral aspects of training on works of other artists is related, but a different discussion.

Gave you an upvote. This is an unpopular opinion shared on unpopularopinion.

Personally I find AI art to look like "AI-art" if that makes sense. It has this generic look and feel to it. It might just be that people have to prompt it differently to get something that does not look generic.

In my view it can be art, but it is just other peoples art regurgitated by a machine with lots of filtering (to prevent nudity and other things that art historically often contain)

I think the biggest issue with LLMs / AI is that it is a loophole to use other peoples work and avoid copyright and licenses.

I know what you mean and while I generally agree I must still note that this only applies to the "bad" examples. It's conceivable that you too have seen pieces you truly liked but didn't realize were made by AI. This is something people often don't seem to consider; AI art is only bad untill it isn't.

I agree, there are art from AI that are great. It's just so much AI generated low-effort art.

I have listened to a lot of songs from suno.ai

This one is fantastic https://suno.com/song/5b0ec0ca-6063-4a21-95b9-1433c35a3ded

This one is a true earworm: https://suno.com/song/093e95d7-1cb5-46b5-9342-39bc82621a7b

I also think it can be a fantastic tool to create truly original content as well.

The youtuber "There I ruined it" is a great example. If I have understood his process, he sings the songs himself and change his voice to be like the other artist.
