#forget fighting stupid. Which is the techbros in this case. Let's spread more awareness to those that don't know

Okay, I get what you are saying. I get that you are pointing out the "gatekeep" that is happening with AI-generated work.

But the problem here is that it's all stolen.

No one consented to have their work be trained by AI.

No one consented having their face be used by AI (and trained by it)

The main problem with AI is not just about the art but how the people behind it used it to profit, gain, and find a loophole in the system of copyright/Intellectual property.

The AI is not a gray zone for art (DO NOT SAY AI IS A GRAY ZONE FOR ART! DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS MINDSET! IF YOU DO THEN YOU ARE SAYING THAT THIS RIGHT HERE THAT IS HAPPENING TO MANY ARTISTS' WORKS BEING TAKEN AND USED WITHOUT CONSENT IS OKAY BECAUSE IT'S IN A GRAY ZONE.

YOU ARE NOT HELPING THE FIGHT TO PROTECT ARTIST COPYRIGHT/IP) Not yet anyway, because no one consented to it. No one said "you may use my work to train your AI" (I am using this as an example, do not be smart with me. Directed it towards techbros, yes I have to make this statement because techbros are now desperate to be in the right.)

All work has been stolen and shoved into an AI machine. Hospital Patients have their private pictures shoved into an AI machine. There is an AI nude generator that can, not only make realistic faces but it can be used as a way to create revenge porn.

For AI at this moment in time. You have to stay with black and white mindset. If you create a gray zone for AI that can lead to problems because WE. DON'T. HAVE. LAWS. TO. PROTECT. OUR. WORK. AND. OURSELVES.

WE. DON'T. HAVE. LAWS. TO. PROTECT. OUR. FACES. OUR. BODY. OUR. PHOTOS. OUR. INFO. FROM BEING STORED INTO AI.

AVOID MAKING GRAY ZONES UNTIL WE HAVE PROGRESS IN THE COPYRIGHT SYSTEM, AND PROGRESS TO PROTECT OUR PRIVACY FROM AI.

This fight will lose the moment you ask the wrong questions. AVOID ASKING THE WRONG QUESTIONS.

Instead of questioning whether it's art? Question its moral. it's ethicality.

Instead of questioning a gray zone for AI, question what about the copyright of the owner? The intellectual rights to the work.

Instead of questioning "is the program really bad." Question how it was made.

These types of questions are more attack questions. Because it gets to the point of what you are making.

DO NOT SUPPORT AI. THERE IS NO LAW TO PROTECT YOU FROM AI. THE MOMENT YOU MAKE A GRAY ZONE FOR IT. WE LOST ALL RIGHTS TO PROTECT OURSELVES.

I get you want to have fun with AI-generated (I won't lie I also played with AI before it got this bad) but at this time we need laws in place to protect ourselves to make sure it does not get used for malicious intent.
