Which part of “an even worse and scummier form of plagiarism” you didn’t understand?
Comment on The AI-focused COPIED Act would make removing digital watermarks illegal

If I gave you an arbitrary image from Midjourney and all of the training data from it, I doubt you could match it to the “source art.” AI images are usually transformative.

What part of “transformative” did you not understand?
ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Different scale, but just go on and defend your billion dollar industry, because “what if it was open source” despite the open source community would never have the ability and the resources to train these models.
ClamDrinker@lemmy.world 2 months ago
What are you talking about? The open source community has trained these kinds of models. They’re out there.
ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
I honestly could not give less of a shit who’s training the models. I’m not gonna boycott C# because it was developed by Microsoft. There are open source implementations of generative AI that make use of freely-available models.

This, exactly. AI is generating new images. Oh whoop de do, they did it by mixing a bunch of pixels. As though making an image out of tiny photos isnt literally the same thing and considered transformative. People just have a double standard about a program instead of a person doing it. (Except for that subset kd online artists, they’re just bezerk about copyright and credit in general)
