#the issue isn't that ppl r ripping off a style or whatever

ppl defending ai art by completely ignoring the genuine major issues that people have with it and pretending like ppl r just mad because they're Art Elitists and think that art should only be made through Suffering instead of being easy are some of the most embarrassing ppl tumblr has been recommending to me lately

#kris.txt #''erm well claiming that using art for databases is wrong just means you're defending ip laws'' #no actually i just don't think artists individual pieces should be used in a way they didn't consent to. #hope this helps #the issue isn't that ppl r ripping off a style or whatever #it's that they're taking work without permission #feeding it into a machine #and then often monetizing the result #it's a matter of consent #if an artist said they were fine with their stuff being used #and was compensated in some way #then it'd be totally fine #or if they used like public domain stuff then it'd be no problem #ai is specifically being used against artists not for them #which is a shame because i do think it could be a good tool
