@ipg i use Xe/Xir as well as Vi/Vim (har har)

@trivernis @rust_discussions woah woah hold on 😳 that's a lot

P.S. If you just give an AI a prompt and call yourself an Artist… I'm sorry to break it to you, bud, but you're basically just commissioning the AI…

For example, one could use an AI to generate a very specific pose they're looking for as a reference, that's a very good use of AI and ML! I'm personally of the belief that directly using anything coming from ML/AI and calling it your own is problematic, and the laziest use of ML

I believe one day in the future, a law should be passed that forces datasets for machine learning to be public and auditable for copyright law and data protection law infractions.
Maybe then, we'll be able to use ethical datasets for generative works, and actually help others!

Snore fest over, I hope that concluding this thread, you understand how AI art actually works and the real concerns over AI art.

This is the root of why some AI art tools may output stolen artwork, or even in the recent case of the LAION-5B network (https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/09/artist-finds-private-medical-record-photos-in-popular-ai-training-data-set/) private medical records (yikes.)

This is where AI art as we know it right now comes in. A huge problem with Machine Learning as it stands right now is there is no way to stop your art from being submitted into a Machine Learning dataset.
