    after they announced it would’ve been the time to start poisoning the comments. Then it would’ve been completely justified and moral.

    Honestly, keep up the good fight. Start poisoning all open sources being scraped by any type of AI.

    And I use the term “ai” very, very loosely. Because what’s called ai now isn’t real ai. It’s just an automated data collection tool.

    It doesn’t create anything, it plagiarizes real artists.

      exactly, ”ai” right now is just a computer parrot. why settle for blurry generic versions of the art that it is digesting and shitting back out?

        Nailed it. The whole essence of AI is that it can make images with a variety of colors and styles, but it’s not creative or artistic by definition. At the end of the day, it’s just a bunch of numbers and equations being translated into pixels on a screen.

          That is not the “whole essence” of it all… You are summarizing he whole piece of tech off a single use-case (image generation).

          AI is MUCH more than just a picture or generator. As a software engineer I use AI for things like debugging or quickly automating some tasks
