AI Art Seething General

[SanctedElectromagnetism]

There were the Luddites who destroyed machines during the industrial revolution.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite

But Luddites were lower class workers and not Xitter soys who demand hundreds of dollars for the inferior crap they call "art".

this is what bothers me. It's not like AI art is some grand fucking archeotech that will solve everything. It also won't (sadly) BTFO annoying xiggers and make them flip burgers and actually contribute to society.
Hell, the name "AI art" is even stupid. People hear AI and think sci-fi "quantum blockchain machine plasma" buzzwords. The way Stable Diffusion works is not that different from Googles auto-predict.

half the reason artists do what they do is so they can shove their political views in people's faces and the other half is to get attention for how special and unique they are. making things to feed into a machine that businessmen use to make corporate products sounds like hell on earth for most artists

You really need to stop browsing /pol/ and twitter and go outside.

If the average pleb could understand high technology it wouldn't be nearly as profitable as an investment vehicle because the expectations would be far more reasonable. Everything about most modern tech, even down to the name, is carefully-selected marketing to curate a certain perception in the minds of the uninformed and generate the most financial investment possible. If you actually presented it as "this is basically just functions, like in normal programs, except declared implicitly through training on data instead of explicitly in exact code", it would only be getting funding from special interests who want to tackle problems that are very hard to solve with explicit code.

I'll be honest with I don't think most of these xiggers are working in the entertainment industry, and they are indeed already flipping burgers to begin with.

What exactly did this technology stole a job from. George Carlin whose been dead for the last 16 years?

The ability for George Carlin's estate to coast for the next century off George Carlin's work.

And I suppose upcoming standup comedians like Patrick Tomlinson or Nick Rekieta. How can these geniuses ever compete if George Carlin is still around in the form of AI?

I thought this was a joke, but somehow it's not and there's a whole bunch of people on Xitter, complaining that the new iPad ad, gives them replaced by AI/"artist oppression" PTSD.

There's even the obligatory (over)analysis:


The ad itself:

It got to the point Apple had to apologize and people started digging up instances, of other companies doing it over a decade ago, for example this ad by LG:

Sometimes humans really don't deserve sympathy or empathy. Also, what the fuck is this focus on "originality" sensitivity that's been cropping up. It's like the spine of society has just vanished faster and less prettier than the surprise auroras from the flare.

The way they think they could fight against AI is by establishing more copyright laws in line with the music industry, unknowing that it’d set all fan artists, which is all of them, on a one-way train to authorship Ausschwitz.

For anyone unaware, look up the Blurred Lines case and how insane it is and how that's now a legal precedent.

For anyone unaware, look up the Blurred Lines case and how insane it is and how that's now a legal precedent.

This case: Crushing Creativity: The Blurred Lines Case and Its Aftermath (McPherson LLP)

If so, that's wild!

Excerpt from the Essay.

The verdict in this case—assuming (perhaps naively) that it was based upon the music at all,[2] and not, for example, the jury’s dislike for Robin Thicke and his admitted drug use—was no doubt based upon a perception that the overall “feel” or “groove” of the two works is similar, as songs of a particular genre often are. In essence, Williams and Thicke have been found liable for the infringement of an idea, or a series of ideas, and not for the tangible expression of those ideas, which is antithetical to Section 102(b) of the Copyright Act.[3] Such a result is very dangerous to the music community and is certain to stifle future creativity.

the Blurred Lines case

This was literally the thing that made me realize copyright is fucking retarded and probably shouldn't exist. As it stands today it's really only a shackle around the west while everyone else just does whatever the fuck they want and nobody can realistically stop them. In the context of AI and art it's even stupider because unless you go full Butlerian Jihad and declare that only a human mind may reproduce works there's no sane legislation that would secure copyright against AI copies that wouldn't also nuke fair use into the dirt.

Really, artfags need to just stop coping and start using AI themselves. Same shit happened with cameras, same shit happened with digital art software, and so on. Just git gud.

I already linked LiquidZulus AI video a few pages ago, but he also made a really good anti-copyright one, long ago:

While I don't agree with abolishing the concept of intelectual property rights 100%, replacing copyright with some combination of academic attributions and creative commons-like licenses, to prevent people from just taking something freely available and selling it as is - or pretending they are the author for clout.

I also prefer artist don't use AI for filal products, unless that's part of their vision. Not everyone uses a camera in their paintings either - it's usually a separate thing and I prefer it stay that way.

You're right, there are absolutely no politically obsessed artists on Xitter.

Retard.

Today, I bring you something wholesome and funny. This great meme, that @shitpost_2077 poosted on Xitter:

@KelpKepples made their own version without the AI, that is also worth sharing:

One of my favorite art analysis guys liked this meme too and some crazy people gave him shit for it, because mame made by AI and AI = bad!

There was other seething about the use of AI in memes too, like there always is, but I'm mostly using this as an excuse, to share memes here.

Both are great in its own way. Fucking bitter dipshits need to let them enjoy themselves.

As true multimodal model, GPT4o will be able to keep parameters in image generation consistent across different pictures, even with spatial awareness thrown in. This means you can come up with a character and generate that character in different situations (e.g. comic panels) and the character will look consistently the same, or so OpenAI claims. Same for places, Items, etc.. for example you could generate a character standing at a window in a room with a desk, then generate the same character in the same room sitting at that desk, and it could even be from a different perspective. This won't need difficult workflows either, all via text prompting and image input. They did not advertise this upcoming feature much but I am sure it will be very popular in the twitter artist sphere.

Damn, so the artists using it on the downlow won't even have to draw corrections anymore. Sounds exciting for the rest of us.
