    Why not sell it? Pet Rocks were sold.

    Why not claim it’s yours? You wrote the prompt. See Pet Rocks above.

    Not use it and instead hire a professional? That argument died with photography. Don’t take a photo, hire a painter!

    So what if AI art is low quality. Not every product needs to be art.

      Because, unlike pet rocks, AI generated art is often based on the work of real people without attribution or permission, let alone compensation.

      Do you know what solidarity is? Any clue at all?

      Seems like the concept is completely alien to you, so here you go:

        Do you know what solidarity is?

        Do you know what a luddite is?

        The simplest argument, supported by many painters and a section of the public, was that since photography was a mechanical device that involved physical and chemical procedures instead of human hand and spirit, it shouldn’t be considered an art form;

        That a particular AI could have used copywrited work is a completely different argument than what was first stated.

          Do you know what a false equivalence is? If not, just reread your own comment for a fucking perfect example.

          I’m not wasting any more time and effort trying to explain the blindingly obvious to your willfully obtuse ass. Have the day you deserve.

        Copyright and intellectual property is a lie cooked up by capitalists to edge indie creators out of the market.

        True solidarity is making AI tools and freely sharing them with the world. Not all AIs are locked down by corporations.

          Those capitalists support AI because it would allow them to further cut out all creators from the market. If you want solidarity, support artists against the AI being used to replace them.

            Please explain to me how open source AI allows a corporation to cut creators out of the market.

      Why not sell it? Because chances are the things it was trained off of were stolen in the first place and you have no right to claim them

      Why not claim it’s yours? Because it is not, it is using the work of others, primarily without permission, to generate derivative work.

      Not use it and hire a professional? If you use AI instead of an artist, you will never make anything new or compelling, AI cannot generate images without a stream of information to train off of. If we don’t have artists and replace them with AI, like dumbass investors and CEOs want, they will reach a point where it is AI training off AI and the well will be poisoned. Ai should be used simply as a tool to help with the creation of art if anything, using it to generate “new” artwork is a fundamentally doomed concept.
