I kinda feel like all I hear is anti AI talk. Meanwhile I’m in the camp of don’t demonize tools, demonize what people do with the tools that’s damaging.
As for art, I don’t know how to ascribe value to art. The Mona Lisa exists. As do copies of it that are worthless. At what point will the original have no value by virtue of the quality of the copies? Will a molecularly identical copy made with a Star Trek replicator make the original worthless? Or will it always be valued as the original?
if the tool builders stole your work to create them, never compensated the creators, didn’t even ask them - I suspect you’d feel differently. it’s gross and people are like “well, it’s just artists what do we need them for?”
copying isn’t stealing, and modeling isn’t even copying.
the greatest threat an artist faces isn’t that someone might copy their work, but that no one will want to
I get it, you’ll care when they get around to stealing your work.
copying isn’t stealing.
oh, so you copied all the answers on your exams?
pfft. quit it kiddo, you’re not equipped for this.
… He’s not equipped? Your metaphor was nonsensical. Let’s say he did copy his exam answers. Who lost their answers as a result?
Hence copying is not stealing.
Additionally, who was harmed by the copying in your example, and how?
being willfully ignorant of the harm being done to artists ability to pay their bills and you can’t comprehend how it’s theft.
damn that’s dumb.
Who is dumber? The one calling people dumb, or the one unable to answer their questions? Don’t use metaphors if you don’t understand them or can’t explain how they are valid.
