hoping AI companies remove your work from their datasets (after already including it without consent) is not going to be enough
ani betts@molly0xfff here's the thing - if I copy a painting in Greg's style, AI or not, who is publishing that painting? Images are published by *people*, not robots or AIs, saying "AIs are copying my art" is like saying "Pencils can copy my art!"
It doesn't matter *how* they copy it, if a person copies work and publishes it, the *person* is at fault. It's on people publishing AI art to prove they haven't copied anything so overtly that it crosses the line into plagiarism
@molly0xfff that being said, it's 1000% clear that the randos in /r/stablediffusion and likely in bigger companies as well, give zero fucks towards the issues of Provenance and seeing what source images contributed to an output which is deeply disappointing and frustrating :-/
