  Get your head out of your ass. Their voices are their art and to replicate that is not only disturbing it’s morally wrong. Especially if you do so for profit.

    Nobody complained about copyright when Microsoft had the only image ai in the game, only when the open source stable diffusion came out did they start screeching about how ai was “stealing their jobs”.

      Fuck off. The tech got popular and public got educated on what makes it work.

        So years of Microsoft’s advertising dalle did nothing to educate the public about how ai works but they’re suddenly all experts the week after stable diffusion comes out?

      Uh no people definitely did. Mostly the people that actually knew how this shit worked. But even laypeople complained when it was just Dall-E and Midjourney.

      What are you talking about? When MS had the only image AI in the game, it was garbage and couldn't do anything useful. Of course no one was threatened.

      But after researchers got their hands on nVidia 3000 series cards, and finally had access to hardware.

      More advanced research papers started spilling out, which has caused this crazy leap in AI tech.

      Now the image/audio AI is advanced enough to be useful, hence now the threats..

        When MS had the only image AI in the game, it was garbage and couldn't do anything useful.

        And yet it was still doing exactly the same thing that people are now going on about how "unethical" it is.

        Just goes to show that they don't actually care how "unethical" it is until it actually poses a threat to their income. It's about money, not about principle.

      I saw people complain about it from 8:00 day one but go off I guess.

    It’s only wrong when done for profit.

    Otherwise you’re just having their material as data for an algorithm and a personal use case.

      I don’t know what someone would use AI art for “personal use” aside from trying to make some sort of porn or something for themselves

        Use the voices for a film project or machinima if you want, use the picture generation models to create wallpapers, it’s not my fault you insist on being obtuse about this by pretending you can’t figure out a use case that isn’t based around making money.

  AI can very easily be abused and I don't see how this is related to the tech being open sourced or not. Fighting to ensure you aren't exploited is fine and I support anyone to fight against exploitation.

    I don’t get why so many people feel the need to defend big corporations this much. It’s not like they’re going to share the profits with the people who dwfend them, nor do they probably care.

    If anything, the industry will just use whatever they can to exploit more people.

    Without maintaining and creating protections, they will roll back until there are almost none. Our current labor rights didn’t come for free. They were fought for.

  They downvoted him because he spoke the truth.

  It’s funny how all (or at least most of them) of the parents of those “artists” told them to do/learn something real and now they get their recipe for their bad choice.

  I’ve discussed with someone about how pictures made by stable diffusion is not Art while there are literally “paintings” where the “artist” just jizzed on the canvas which then got declared as Art. I trolled him by sending him multiple generated anime pictures and asked him which is “Art” because he said he could recognize Art. He chose one and fell into the trap. 1

    ChatGPT is why the public is scrambling about AI. AI art has been around awhile and there's always been complaining because its lame compared to real artists. This has fuck all to do with it suddenly being open source AI.
