OpenAI's latest image-generation update has taken social media by storm, as users are flooding X, Instagram, and Reddit with Studio Ghibli-style images
I know what I want. I don’t have to care that you think you should stand in the way of people creating new things. If they’re not copying your work then it’s not a problem. If they buy your book and use it to train an AI that is ethically fine. I don’t support the growth of intellectual property laws.
And I don’t buy for a second that the world is a better place with artists all fighting to be the next best seller or financially stable painter. The world will turn people will create and I’ll argue until I day I die that the best content ever is the stuff nobody is looking to profit from. That’s the stuff that is actually created from a place that’s pure creativity
It must be nice to go through the world and be so sure of something so utterly stupid. Who cares about reality, I have FEELINGS.
Seriously you’ve completely failed to listen to literally anything that I said. Give me an example of a novel that was Self-Published that is better than anything that was commercially available.
By definition anything that’s good enough to make money makes money.
Give me anything published that actually matters in your day to day life. Give me any piece of created work that if it didn’t exist, you just couldn’t function.
What is your judgement of what is better or not. I’m trying you that in my life the stuff I’ve seen the random person create on their own often surpasses the person trying to pursue a career
So the best books are the ones that never get published? The Best music is free on Soundcloud? The best movies are freely available on Peertube?
Your realize that in order to achieve greatness in a field it takes time, if artists can’t live from their art because anyone is free to just make copy of it and to sell it and keep the profit to themselves then instead of making art they’ll have to find another job instead.
You might believe that AI will replace them, but AI doesn’t understand what it’s doing it just regurgitates stuff until the person asking for it finds it good enough. It lacks the will to generate emotions in the viewer or listener.
“The best art is the one created by people who get no recognition for it”
Do you also believe the best houses are built by people who have no training in how to build them?
“Stop paying artists and people will keep creating”
They will, they won’t be able to spend the time required to become masters at it unless they’re already rich enough not to have to spend time working. It’s also the same thing here, let’s stop paying plumbers, people who like doing plumbing will just continue doing it. Let’s stop paying garbage people, someone will keep doing it because they like it… Oh wait, no they won’t.
People deserve a form of compensation for their work if we want to live in functioning societies. If we go back to living in small tribes then sure, people will just do what they must without compensation because it’s required to survive, but then human population would be in the millions instead of billions and we wouldn’t be here to talk about it because the technology wouldn’t exist anymore.
AI is being used as a stand-in to bring in new laws and shape the current mindset. One that keeps everything for sale and builds artificial scarcity. They went after starving artists and creators first. Same tactics that were used to turn people on the right against immigrants. Fear, anger, repetition.
Go look at the old posts and articles. Then compare them to the stuff that was circulating during the anti-immigrant wave. It’s the same blueprint. The media was used the same way. Make people think there’s a crisis. Then give them something to hate.

Yea, I believe those are the best.
Bull fucking shit, you know as well as I do that your point doesn’t make sense.
My point makes sense. What doesn’t make sense

They are compensated. But they shouldn’t be compensated if their work is used to train AI.
And that’s the problem right there

AI isn’t the problem.
