Isn’t this an ai image? Seems a bit counterintuitive to this sub.
AI art is stolen art
It’s not about copyright, that’s a burgeois invention. It’s about attribution and alienation, with AI the act of working (creating the images that feed the neural network) is completely decoupled from the product (whatever the giant heap of linear algebra cobbles together). That’s the issue, not some capitalist’s loss of rent-seeking opportunities.
I couldn’t name you the specific works this particular piece has blended together, but all AI “art” is made by mashing together actual human work.
As a (bad) hobby level artist, I’m well aware my art is probably best described as mashing together other’s actual human work. But I kind of think that’s true for everyone. You always see influences and borrowed concepts from other’s past works in new art. If your work is posted publicly, you can’t be surprised when another artist sees it and is inspired by it.
In my opinion, we already have copyright protection against AI art, it’s the same you would use against anyone else. If you can show that the generated artwork is a derivative work, it’s a problem and they’ve violated your copyright.
K. You just dogmatically believe that this piece was mashed together but can’t name the pieces or which parts are from different works.
Any work used to train the AI without first acquiring the proper license from the license holder.
Just because you didn’t personally steal the goods someone else passed on to you, it doesn’t suddenly make them not stolen goods.
Calling things stolen without evidence does not make them stolen. That’s just kindergarten level finger pointing.
WOW, didn’t expect the anti work group to be so into capitalism.
This is what happens when people don’t actually read any theory, they think that capitalists working to steal work (art) from workers (artist) is anti-capitalist
