The issue with AI "art" generation isn't rooted in the fact the creators of the AI "shamelessly" build it using other artists work to form it's understanding of art and it's basis of image generation. It's no different than what a human would do; referencing artwork, and extrapolating across multiple pieces to create something new. After all, you can't copyright an art form.
And as far as I've looked into these systems, the AI doesn't store the artists images but rather a textual breakdown to later generate images in a similar style. Arguably, and from a legal standpoint, the human brain does more raw image storing than the AI does. The AI simply isn't "stealing" art. It's generating a text reference. A non-visual description it can understand.
The issue is mass production and the devaluation of artwork.
These AI can functionally create images on the same level of artists who take years to perfect their craft, some their entire lifetimes, and perform it en mass in a matter of minutes or moments. Art that would take weeks or months to complete, can be initiated in moments with a prompt, and tweaked to the requestors satisfaction where otherwise the commissioner of the work is left with the artists vision of the prompt given. Art has always been a reflection of the artist, and it is being cheapened by mass production.
Quality can now be achieved at the speed of quantity, at the low cost of humanity.
There are art AI's you can pay for instead of an artist that depends on their work to make ends meet. The AI analyzes someones hard made, soul poured work, deconstructs it to a description, and pumps out facsimile's for cheap. This is the problem.
AI's are cheapening art.
Mass manufacturing has it's place in making the harder aspects of survival more convenient. Making raw materials, foods, and "to be assembled" general components for construction and creation easier to obtain and less of a struggle. It does this at the cost of employing less people, but the general consensus is the easier the harder aspects of labour are made, the better off people are. However, art isn't one of those "necessary labours" that could be benefitted from by complete automation. It's not a need we need filled en-masse, not in a society that holds homelessness and starvation over the heads of everyone should they not "benefit" society in what the richer elite deem "enough". All AI does in this case, is attack the livelyhoods of people on the bottom end of society. Big name artists won't feel the pressure, but smaller artists doing profile picture and OC commissions to pay bills will suffer.
This "advancement" is harmful.
To get plain: The issue of AI art and AI story generation is the devaluating nature of mass manufacturing and the impact it will have on artists who already struggle to get by. AI generation harms people. And if you build an AI that does any of this intentionally, you are deliberately harming artists, writers, and creators to the point of pushing them into a worse financially precarious state. You are intentionally harming human beings. And if you use these AI, or pay for them, you are supporting harming hardworking people who's lives depend on their work.
Stop. It's not a fun project. It's an attack.
Think: How would it feel, programmers of AI, to have an AI that could write code equal to or greater than you with the typed prompt of a corporate executive? If 5.99 a month could replace you, how would you live, how would you make ends meet?

It is absolutely wild to see police tackling baby faced 19 year olds and beating up college professors all while the media keeps repeating these protesters are dangerous antisemites.

Mass Effect fans will undergo a magical girl transformation into Itamar Ben-Gvir when they get the chance to kill hundreds of thousands of extremely transparently Middle Eastern-coded aliens and then wonder why people accurately describe Mass Effect's politics as extremely right-wing

SPARKLE:Revampage
Tumblr media
Long have we rained on the worlds of Sol.
For days on end, our munitions pound Paradisians with deadly accuracy, unfurling into all-encompassing clouds of multicolored plastics, showering all in it's rainbowed prescence.
The Void of the Eclipsed, the galaxy. They were first. It's denizens tried to flee, tried to escape the inevitable. They failed. And then, what became of them? They disappeared.
The Void of Trash, the Pant Eater's white hole. The nuclear option was utilized. Most everyone was covered. save for one stick-up-the-tail.
The Mindscape, the In-between. This time, a corporation, bathed in shadow and with unseeable members, came into the playing field. Each of them were laid bare in different ways, until M.A.S.S went too far. The realm has been silent for some time.
The rudimentary, the Solitary One. On him, we employed our largest yet. He was a fine specimen, with an even finer suit. He was rightly murderous after that.
These are only the beginning. More aircraft are being built, more bombs designed. The reign of the confettus has only just begun.
If you like it, reblog it!

i know its silly to keep harping on that basketball pump IV needle person but their "survival is survival" statement pisses me off so bad. its such a misinformed concept of even just the mechanics of basic animal survival. humans are not a solitary predator species. humans are social apes and survival is something we do collectively. thats how come we humans are so good at "survival" via things like sanitation and proper tool use and standarized methods for treating illness and injury. making iv needles by sharpening a basketball pump on a rock is a good example of survivalist innovation in a specific moment but it is NOT a basis for a functioning society that effectively nurtures and protects its injured, elderly, and vulnerable members to the fullest extent it can.

" you weren't supposed to look for me. the whole point in going ghost is to not be found. " doesn't mean for it to sound harsh, but his newest business venture depends heavily on the opposition not knowing who he is, and so his past coming to find him only draws attention.

Is building a reploid like building a computer or is it like brewing alcohol? Or is it like building a car? Can you build a car from scratch? There's laws and regulations right? I know there are things like Pantheons that are mass produced, but is every reploid made in a facility? Or are they also.made in garages...????

🌊"Privilege has no place in an election, but empathy does" 🚨
⬆️ I have some thoughts ⬇️
That's a one-line political advertisement for Kool-Aid at brunch: a tangy zinger of zero substantive benefit. Governmental di•a•bet•us. The two-party power structure in electoral government doesn't beat itself. It beats us into line if we let it.
Whether you are "Blue (N)o Matter Who" or "MAGA," if you're worried about how your rights or freedoms will be impacted by someone in a muddy district making an informed decision to vote their conscience, you're missing part of a problem.
If you're worried about line items of government spending, but are okay with the length, scope, and cost of a General U.S. Election, you're missing part of a problem.
If you live in an electoral "safe state" and you feel the need to lecture, pressure, or otherwise exercise shame towards a demographic body, or an individual for "wasting" their vote on a non-primary color representative — in swing state or otherwise — you're enabling and promoting the problem.
If you have the PRIVILEGE of living in a deep primary color state, yet you are unwilling to organize for electoral reform; you're prolonging the problem.
If you have the PRIVILEGE of living in a jurisdiction where you can vote your conscience because the margin of probability is sweeping, yet you would refuse to swap your vote with someone who wants to conscientiously object to policies in their jurisdiction — but won't risk a party protest vote because the margin is razor thin and the social consequences are vast — because "your voice, your choice" then you're building consent for an argument that your freedom of expression is worth more, and fueling the problem.
If you would raise a fist in intersectional solidarity, and ask your friends and neighbors to "vote as if..." listing any number of groups to amplify, or you make it personal and say, "vote *as if* my child's life depends on it," but you would hesitate when another exploited person under siege says, "my family's life *is* at risk, my child's life *depends* on this now, will you vote for them?"...then do you realize "as if" is the privilege of forethought to reduce harm that could be spent organizing to prevent a tipping point, and "is" represents a present threat that needs your empathy and your immediate intervention?
The problem is that empathy without action is a privilege. Electoral voting without continuous accountability isn't an act of agency or mitigating a threat. It is giving away agency and sewing a crisis for tomorrow.
