Artists lose first copyright battle in the fight against AI-generated images::But the fight may not be lost as the court allowed the artists to claim copyright infringement against Stability AI, Midjourney, and DevianArt, on workpieces that the artists had filed a copyright for.
I’m so conflicted about this; on the one hand AI’s can be a great tool for humanity, on the other hand they will likely destroy the livelyhood of thousands of people and probably give more power to big corporations.
They will also very likely make less people pursue drawing, (graphic) design and painting as a skill.
The same was said about Photoshop decades ago.
Also reminds me of this.
To compare this with what happened when Photoshop came up is not a fitting comparison at all.
Digital art pushed more people into learning how to draw (with traditional and digital media) leading to a surge in courses, books, workshops etc. Digital drawing made it affordable for more people to get into drawing. And it also encouraged them to learn traditional drawing to improve their skills and expand their portfolio.
This is not comparable to what is happening now with AI image generators.
Photography versus traditional media realism paintings like still lifes and portraits is a better analogy. But photography only touched one specific area of drawing/painting not all of it. And in this case it really did lead to a skill becoming incredibly rare.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I propose the following solution: Everyone is free to use any publicly available data to train AI. Any data generated by AI is automatically in the public domain and cannot be copyrighted.
No, that doesn’t work at all. That gives all the power to people with billions of dollars to train and run the best proprietary models, at the expense of the people who created the data.
Welcome to the internet where you can literally experience everything that AI was trained on right now for free.
That’s how the internet works. You put your stuff out there and people and software experience it.
THIS IS NOTHING NEW
Yeah? Where did you get the impression I’m in favor of a completely unregulated marketplace where corporations are free to harvest everything from everyone for free?
Try to block right clicking or blocking a recording u fucking moron. Why do u think those things are possible? If they were nfts would have value.
See how stupid u look?
bozo
No u lol. Ur the idiot who can’t figure out right clicking hahahaha
???
That’s literally how it works now. There are no legal restrictions on training ais and courts have rules ai generated works are not copyrightable.
i doubt it.
