I don't think you understand how ML training works.

The absolutely massive data sets to train these models are sourced in highly unethical ways, which can also often be legally problematic.

I know of some people who tried to be responsible in their usage and thought that they had gotten proper permissions to keep things ethically sound, only to be informed after they produced content with it that they failed to consider the base models - their fine-tuning was all cleared by the specific artists who contributed, but the base models were still trained on questionable sources, so they still couldn't avoid the ethical problems.

In this discussion, it is also important to distinguish generative models - that which produce content from prompts and such - versus other types of ML-powered tools that merely act as aids, reducing busywork components. This is primarily within the realm of animation, where ML systems can provide effective inbetweening, allowing the real artists to focus on the key frames.

No, it literally isn't.  It takes a hundred drawings of "cthulhu" and figures out what is common to them.  Then when you ask it for a picture of "cthulhu" it uses a bigass random number, runs it through its model of "what is cthulhu?" and presents what its random noise turned into when run through the model.  At no point does it ever "copy" anything, any more than Rembrandt "copied" Da Vinci when doing portraits.

Not all the models are trained that way.  IBM's granite models are not for instance.

Are you saying that their training data sets were sourced entirely from either public domain works or those with consent of the author/artist? I have not seen anything stating such. What I can find on a cursory search is that apparently they have "curated" their datasets, which says nothing about the ethical problems, only about "bad data" problems.

Just as the dirty little secret about wireless is all of the wires the dirty little secret about EV you still need the energy.  Batteries don't create energy they store it.  Somebody has to produce it and it has to be distributed.  The batteries are inserted to coerce you to buy a product you don't need.

In terms of the lost jobs...yea it is going to decimate work as we know it in many well paying sectors.

I view the emergence of AI as a disrupter that is going to shake the tree making a ton of opportunities that didn't exist exist.  The dust had settled and found some steady state existence since the last major disruptor (dotcom).

I also don't think the big corps you know for the most part are in a position to survive it.  They are going to blockbuster, circuit city or sears themselves.

Too big to fail isn't really accurate.  It is more like too big to succeed and socialism bailed them out.  They acquired competition and assets for decades with money stolen out of the system and donated to them.  Very few innovate.  Very few manufacture.  They just are not producers of really anything in any sense.

Money is no longer cheap and most companies you can name are run like shit.  Due to the lack of production (ideas or physical assets) they can only improve their bottom line by telling their employees to fuck off.  They will use AI, even when it isnt read for what they want, to do that.  Planning to work for someone in many industries is going to be pretty bleak.  

Ultimately I think you can leverage it to actually work for yourself and have your own company.  You can make a company today with AI agents on your home PC that runs pretty well.  I built a marketing team and working on my programming team at the moment.  I also have a R&D team in the works.

TL;DR big corps are jerking off to AI not knowing they stand to lose it all because of AI and they just suck at doing successful company shit.

None of that addresses what I asked. I am looking through their publications but have yet to find anything that actually addresses exactly what is in their training datasets and how they obtained them. I am highly skeptical that they were able to source sufficient base training data in the manner I said - either in the public domain, or with explicit permission.

Note that one may be able to exploit existing broad agreements to legally reuse content for training purposes that was originally uploaded for other purposes. That doesn't address the ethical issue.

Does the image exist in the training data set for the model? Then it can be argued that the product of the model can be a derivative work.

I will note, however, that it may be possible to legally wiggle your way out of this because of the fact that computer-generated content - such as the output from generative ML systems - is not copyrightable in the first place.

Virtually everything I have been reading so far is about using their models. The most I have seen said about how they built them in the first place is that they filtered the data. But they haven't said what that data encompassed in the first place.

Let's say you want to write and self publish a novel. But you have no artistic talent and no money to pay someone who does. With AI, you can describe what you want and the AI can create it for you. So you get your cover art and it's hard to say anyone is missing out.

Meh. I don't really feel like having a conversation about this. But I'll just say I probably pay closer attention to this than most and IMO AI art in some ways has turned out to be a total failure. It sucks. And before someone says it's awesome because they can prompt a program to make an image of a dog holding a gun or whatever that's not even remotely what I'm talking about. Although it is an example of one of the reasons it's a failure and why studios thinking they can have AI artists producing things for them hasn't worked out.

I don't know how you answer that question.  Is why I am asking it.

Machines now weld better, consistently, than most average welders....  That's a good thing.  I want the best welds on my car, even though it was the 2000th one made that day. Computers now simulate very complex mathematical problems way better than our best mathematicians could even dream of being able to. Which results in all kinds if crazy good heath care outcomes and products in the world that I enjoy.

If AI does a better job at creating art than artists.....is that a bad thing? I don't know if the answer is yes.  It doesn't seem like it's a bad thing or that big of a deal really.  Like...what's going to happen in the world if tomorrow suddenly that's true.  We wake up in the morning and it's 100% true that AI now makes just better art than humans. What will have actually changed that is so horrible?  

Machines already do all manner of shit way better than we can.  That's the whole point of machines.

Only when the thing is in a place where the machine can do the work, and there is an energy source for it to work.  A person is still more mobile and adept to getting into human size spaces without outside power supply (at least for now).  Plus, in terms of art, machines have yet to evoke as much emotion in humans as human made art can.  That is where true art lies.  AI just winds up copying what has already been proven to evoke emotions, but it is not really original.

They won't be relying on pure prompters... they'll use a combination of human and AI techniques.

I know a professional who has done work for online gaming companies and she just uses AI to generate draft concepts, which she will use as a loose reference/starting point and completely redraw things from scratch.

Her approach is more conservative - other artists could just as easily use the AI to generate a semi-finished image and then repaint/redraw portions of it to get a result in line with their expectations - this saves them 25-50% of the work easily, depending on how much of it they wish to utilize.

I play guitar. There are some sounds on a guitar that are very dependent upon how you play it. Palm muting and pinch harmonics weren't a thing 100 years ago (save some obscure examples maybe). At least for metal guitar there have been a bunch of new sounds in the last 30 years of playing like partial harmonics, tapping, legatto, etc... AI can only maybe use them if they have already been recorded and are searched by the algorithms. AI because it doesn't actually play the instrument will never find any new tones or techniques. But if all you care about is music to pass the time, then I guess one could be satisfied with the McDonalds jingle or whatever crap is on pop radio today.

I'll answer for him. It's for the artist to convey emotion and for the viewer to experience whatever emotion that artwork evokes. When a computer code can understand that, I'll be interested in AI art. It's possible someday if computers become like the droids in Blade Runner or Aliens, ie: capable of emotion.

Probably the only thing that actually separates humanity from animals. That and the awareness needed to be inspired to create it. That's fucking crazy.



The only way AI creates "better" things for humans is if humans allow it to. And given how sheeple were so willing to obey during pandemics and also be shaped by social media, AI certainly has a chance at being allowed to.
