  • I agree with what @[email protected] said here. My argument is the same than what you’ve already heard: since it doesn’t take the original images, but rather learn from them, it acts as a human who also learns from many different images and it would make no sense to copyright all artists that a human is trained on. Also it’s true that a human artist also has his own experience that also influence the art while the neural network only has the art, however, the ai artist will provide this personal experience. So imo you shouldn’t consider image generations as plagiarism.

    Though, I do agree that having people scraping your art to train a model on it is frustrating, even though it was already the case with people training on your art for their personal experience. In the case of a model it’s way more similar to the original art pieces. I haven’t made my mind on the ehtics of model training, but generating is not plagiarism in my opinion.

    Anyway, my original stance was on generative ai to be used as art and not on it being plagiarism or not. Generative ai brings a say to make full pictures with minimal effort and some people generate hundreds of unoriginal similar images. Imo, since it is easy to have a final image, the artistic effort is elsewhere: the composition, originality of the subjects, mixing of new techniques: regional prompt, lora, controlnet, etc., mixing with other tools : photoshop, blender, animation, etc. You definitely can make art with generative ai, and it takes more time that it looks like. (Look up a video on comfyui, sdnext or invokeai to see example of workflows)









  • Sad to see people here supporting the same kinds of policies that are diametrically opposed to privacy on the internet.

    Parental control softwares are always parents failing to take the time to properly educate themselves and their children to the internet, as well as trust issue towards their children, which is bad parenting since it leads children into lying to them and finding alternatives as well as feeling seen “as a child”, bad for teens…

    Moreover those softwares are, as I said earlier nearly malwares


  • It’s easy to be faster with exponentially less features. Even vscode is lacking behind jetbrains. Most features I need that are not there is quickly finding all usages (actual usages instead of just search by name) as well as intelligent refactoring of all usages in all files and event some comments and it being done automatically if your move or rename a file also. Also setting up a main run button is actually very annoying to do in most languages in vscode (idk if you can even do it in zed?), you eventually have to ude commandlinz for everything. Also the lack of language formatter for all languages…
