VentureBeat reports that the “class-action copyright lawsuit filed by artists against companies providing AI image and video generators and their underlying machine learning (ML) models has taken a new turn.”
Read why the companies at the center of the artists’ complaints (Stability AI, Midjourney, Runway, and DeviantArt) have hit back with a volley of new motions to have the case dismissed…
I have the feeling that being unknowingly exposed to a torrent of synthetic images might just train people to think that this is what a normal image looks like, further eroding the capacity to identify them as artificial. But it might be a lost battle as these models keep improving.
One way to counter that might be to build a strong culture of sourcing and crediting the stuff we share.
Even outside of the realm of images generated by diffusion models, I'm always baffled to see the enthusiastic comments on pages/accounts sharing blatantly uncredited artworks/contents (even if it's "unknown source"). Top comments shouldn't be "wow so beautiful" but "who did this, where did you find it?".
Tbh I'm not really hopeful we can reverse that trend.

Exploring the Capabilities and Considerations of AI Video Generation
Artificial intelligence (AI) has come a long way in recent years, and its capabilities in the realm of image and video generation have been particularly impressive. Companies like SinFusion, Open AI, Mid-journey, and Stable-Diffusion have developed diffusion models that are leading the way in image and video generation tasks, outperforming generative adversarial networks in various…
