    There is very little rational/logical way you can ban AI art without banning regular art, but they are too moronic to understand that, and they'll play right into big corporation's interests.
    However society doesn't usually decide on laws based on what's rational anyway, so AI art might be on its way out soon enough. They're just sadly mistaken if they think the average furry commission artist is not gonna get absolutely fricked by FANGMAN as well during the process.

      Just a side-thought:

      If we pretend ML & AI is similar to how a brain works, common argument I see is "it's similar to how the brain learns, just faster". That would set the precedent that everything is legal for the sake of AI / Technological Development and push the blame down to the AI in ethical issues.

      Social medias can steal all your data, buy leaks, create profiles on you even though you haven't agreed to any TOS because it's the AI doing it.

      AI terrorism? The drone was acting on its own, just like a human would do.

      Imo diffusion models are pretty harmless to artists as honestly it's still very limited imo. But I feel like we're actually opening a can of worms here in the way we are defining AI and what should be allowed. Now that we know the math for it exists, why not just do it "right" and make sure we don't take any ethical shortcuts because future hostile uses of AI & ML can be way more harmful.

        That's...something completely different. The argument they are making is that somehow the AI is just "copying" their work, but their argument for "copying" is yelling about stealing TV if you don't watch the commercials and akin to McDonalds suing you for replicating a Big Mac because you looked at a picture of one, ordered one to taste etc.and then went and tried to make a burger with the same toppings.

        As for what you're talking about, that's a different issue that needs to be addressed, but ultimately the AI art tool is still being directed at the behest of a user, so it isn't an issue of it being autonomous or anything. You have to train the AI, you have to give it parameters.. just like when you copy a video file or a song, the computer is just replicating a pattern of 1s and 0s, or a torrent is not just automatically sending pieces around to clients when seeind, bu its not treated as though these things are done independently. Addressing the issue of "its only an AI, its only tech, its only a web bot etc" already needs to be dealt with legally in cases of things like invasions of privacy, data mining, warrantless wiretapping and the like. However none of that is related to what's going on here, except in horribly misunderstood statements by artists who don't understand the tech issue

      LAION-55B contains five billion potentially copyrighted images used without permission. It's effectively smuggled from a research entity with copyright exemptions to a non-profit and then to a for-profit, laundered in a strange legal framework so that Stability can sell its aggregate for profit. Regardless of how the AI works on a technical level, this is morally wrong.

          Yes.
          The difference is that a human has no choice but to integrate his input, combined with the fact that in order to control someone's input you would need to poke out his ears and eyes.
          On the other hand, everything a computer takes as input was orchestrated by a person, as was the way the computer was to integrate its input.
          And finally, we simply agree that humans have inherent value and that you shouldn't harm them and we don't hold the same to be true for computers. If you don't agree to this point, eventually we'll get to settle it with violence.

              I'm not exactly threatening violence. The difference in view is simply something that can't be settled in a more civil way. If you believe that human lives have no inherent value, and I believe that they do, eventually we'll find a reason to try and beat these ideas into each other by force.
              And yet that's not the problem I see developing within AI. What I see is that, were you really to hold that view and win, you wouldn't end up on the winning team after all. You'd simply render yourself worthless before a vastly superior intelligence.

              Of course, I come too soon. This species and civilization still functions even if we've forgotten why and how. Nothing will seem to be so wrong for a long while.

        >contains
        wrong. it contains links to it. the actual images are no more in the LAION dataset as they are in NFTs.
        the links lead to a location where you have undoubtedly published your work on a service that you have agreed to the terms of service on, which expressly permits duplication and retransmission to people who request it from the service as a function of performing the service.
        someone has then taken these images and used them to train the model.
        the images are not contained within the model, only a mathematical shadow of their nature. a human engineer nor the AI itself could extract your exact image out of it, no matter the prompting. to believe otherwise is to believe that reading your car's odometer is tantamount to revealing all the locations you have driven to in it.
        like it or not, your work is NOT being distributed by others. it is not your work, it is a shadow of your work, just a metric. just an odometer reading. you might as well complain that the web server revealing the filesize of your image to browsers is illegal.

          That's a strong claim, sometimes ML weights do memorize some specific examples from the input dataset.
          You can also easily construct a dataset that contains data that the model has memorized as a 'counter-proof' of sort.
          But yes, the model capacity isn't even a fraction enough to be able to memorize all the images it's seen, and if it spent its capacity on memorizing things it would only be able to give you a few images regardless of what kind of prompts you suggested.

            this is true, but not relevant to the discussion of a massive dataset like LAION-55B. the probability that a single image could be prompted out of it by any means is practically zero.
            and besides, this argument of "but the right training data could cause a memory effect in the model" is akin to saying "but a human with a photographic memory could recreate a painting as a forgery" and using that as justification to ban all museums and galleries

          They don't even have links to the images. The training data is stored locally yet the models are transmittable over the internet, you can't do that if the model has links to the images. You can create your own model and share it to see for yourself that what I'm saying is true. What's really happening is the model engine is creating a massive system of convoluted formulas that let it calculate an approximation of what a keyword looks like. There's no image being stored, nothing is stolen or copied. The closest thing you can get to it is that the AI is able to approximately or distantly reproduce some images because of a strong bias or by giving it super specific parameters for a unique training image. But that's no different from humans too. Artists draw from a mental visual library. They do the same thing that they're angry at AI for. Anyone saying otherwise is just a straight up liar and most of them don't even pay for the images they use as references when they "steal" the image. The funniest is when they straight up copy artwork, call it a study, but still post the results on twitter to get social media clout.

      yup this is it.
      some tumblr cooks came up with a bunch of cake recipes and posted them on tumblr.
      a shell script downloaded them all, threw all the ingredients of all of them together into a big list, interleaved all the instructions, and started up the robo kitchen. out came .. something. possibly resembling a cake.
      now the tumblr cooks are screaming about how their own personal cakes have been stolen off of their own personal plates.

        But cheap comissiontards also don't deserve any money. as for the toilet art, the problem is nobody thinks it's worth anything, they're money laundering schemes. That is, it's not even art at all, rather it's a finance device disguised as art. Replacing it involves not replacing artists, but rather replacing bankers.

    Every time someone makes an analogy with computers copying and implies the original is gone, damaged or stolen makes me want to strangle him.
    A copy doesn't remove the original. Those cakes of the artists weren't stolen, not even exactly copied in most cases, but learned from. Also no one can see the art you don't publish out there, so they were flaunting those cakes for others to see in the first place.
    A more apt (and yet flawed) comparison would be that the artist put the cakes on display, someone photographed the cakes and after seeing a great number of them, learned how to duplicate them.

    I personally don't even like AI images right now. At least as they are you still need to know how to prompt them correctly when you want something not so simple, and usually the hands are shit.

    Lets be honest here, if AI art is going to result in the death of artists who were only trying to make monetary gain from it and wouldn't otherwise practice art, I am all in on AI art "killing art".
    But lets be honest that will never happen because most people are most of all interested in the works of other people. For a couple years there will be an AI art trend, and people will go OOH and AAH, but once the novelty is off everyones going to start saying "Hmm yes, I do prefer GENUINE art by REAL HUMANS and not AI art because... because I just do!"
    They will poorly rationalize why because they genuinely prefer human art to AI art. That will become obvious after a few years.
    So who is really affected?
    Literally, anime/furry commission artists.
    Worthless dregs who draw porn and call it art. A far bigger insult to art than AI generated art ever was or ever will be.
    I'll be very glad to see their death, or if not, their evolution.

Do you know how many fields have been devastated by AI already? Artists need to realize every job on the planet is going to either be outright wiped out by or significantly downsize because of AI. Instead of trying to get the government to ban AI because their furry art commissions are being threatened they should be calling for UBI.

    No? AI art works the same way as a human creating art, both learn from their experience. The difference is that instead of having to not only be able to conceive of the thing you want to draw and be technically able to put it to paper/canvas/whatever digital file, the AI has "perfect" execution - instead, you just need to tell it exactly what you're looking for and give it enough source material to understand what you're asking.

    This is going to make artists salty because the technical part of their work, being able to use the mouse or wacom tablet or whatever the frick to draw something is being done by AI, but all the rest of it is conceptually not much different from how an artist decides to draw something based on all their past experience. Even an entirely "new" work of art has the artists' experience feeding into it the same way that an AI does more or less. Like HR Geiger wouldn't have been able to draw his sexualized facehugger without knowing what dicks, veganas, and crabs/spiders etc. all look like.

      The thinking machines must be destroyed. They are a mockery of humanity used to replace everyone with golems by an elite that hates human expression. Why automate hobbies first? Because they hate humanity. They hate the human experience. They hate the human spirit. And they will make you work in the ditch to die and your programming jobs also are on the chopping block if you haven’t noticed. Any job that allows for your empowerment is what they prioritize for automation. Working as a janitor will not be, until they can just sweep all of humanity away. You will not be spared by the AI. I’ve been saying this for years but when they made their intentions clear on what they prioritize for automation, it became blatant. At this point such reaction is a means of self-preservation against people who want our extinction.

    They'll treat you like the evil, hard bitten, digital thief you are

    So don't AI this song
    Don't go stealing AI all day long
    Code it up yourself like you know that you should
    Oh, don't AI this song

    Don't take away money
    From DeviantArtists just like me
    How else can I afford another fancy pen
    And a top-of-the-line graphic tablet
    These things don't come for free
    So all I ask is everybody please

    Support the artists and creators who work hard every day
    Don't AI our art away
    Respect our creations and the time we put in
    Don't AI this song, it's a sin

    Don't AI this song (Don't do it, no, no)
    Even the redditors know it's wrong (You can just ask them)
    Code it up yourself like you know that you should (You really should)
    Oh, don't AI this song

    Don't AI this song (Oh, please don't you do it or you)
    Might wind up in jail like a hacker gone wrong (Remember them)
    Code it up yourself like you know that you should (Right now)
    Oh, don't AI this song
    Don't AI this song (No, no, no, no, no, no)
    Or you'll burn in hell before too long (And you deserve it)
    Code it up yourself (Just do it) like you know that you should (You lazy bum)

    >human learns how to make art from looking at art
    wow well done
    >ai learns how to make art from looking at art
    I can't believe they're STEALING ART!!!

    Has there been any comparison between a piece of art made by a human and it being represented (even if just a leg or something) almost 1 to 1 in an AI output?

      i think the problem in the end is not about the process of using art to train ai, the problem is with ai artists and artists in general claiming ownership of digital images.

    More like someone builds a cake factory using that homosexual's recipe and adds a McDonalds-like café to it to serve the cakes on demend.
    Those who think AI just combines existing art have no understanding of how it works, the shit is just weights man, not a trace of any image, but tell that to the artBlack folk with their mathlet meme degree.

    I don't know why people are even bothering to b***h about this. No amount of complaining is going to make AI go away or stop anyone from training it on the open internet. There is no putting the genie back in the lamp at this point, and everyone is just wasting their breath. My opinion is that if a job can be done by a computer then it should be. Keeping people doing things when AI can do it more efficiently just to prevent hurt feelings is dumb.

    Cringe lefty artists and with their ridiculous utopian ideals: get fricked
    P.S. regardless if the AI fans were rude or nice about stealing your shit, this was inevitable.

    Will those kinda ret-artists ever learn the barest minimum about how the technology actually works, that they see as a existential threat to them? In the time it takes them to draw these braindead "you wouldn't download a car" takes, they could've figured out what AI image generation actually does many times over.

    AI artists should lean into the narrative, become the new internet bad guys. After all, everyone loves a good villain

      Those who do the butlerian jihad are the good guys. The people who want AI Holocaust are an existential threat.

    This is pretty based because that's the only chance their art would ever have some relevance

    These discussions about specifically art dont matter. Digital art was just first on the chopping block. In like 2-3 years the collective crisis will be much bigger with many more industries finding themselves in danger. The progression is exponential and we are reliant on the people on top of the hierarchy to somehow be benevolent and out of goodwill not raze every industry. UBI very soon is the best case scenario but maybe even that is maybe a bit too optimistic.
