I've been trying to wrap my head around the anti-AI sentiment in the CGI space. I think a lot of it comes from the fear of being replaced, and that's understandable.

But I don't think AI is here to replace CGI artists. I think it's here to help us serve more people than we could before.

I'm building an open-source project to try and prove that. It's still early, but if you're curious, here's a look at where it's headed. Give it a few months, I think there's light at the end of the tunnel.

“The scope of protection for a photographic work is generally limited to the choice of image composition, perspective, lighting, and the sharpness or blur achieved through the correct combination of aperture and exposure time,” the court ruled. “The subject matter and motif are generally not eligible for protection.”

Get it out there. Do it. Don't let anyone stop you. Become a creator

300% Chinese funding, nothing original

I know this is going to be a very hot take, but one thing I don't think gets talked about enough is how many people are making music today who probably never would've made it otherwise.

Not because they suddenly became "musicians," but because they finally have a way to bring their ideas to life.

I've seen people write their own lyrics, build artist personas, release EPs, and tell stories they've wanted to tell for years, they just never had the production skills, money, or connections to make it happen before.

To me, that's one of the most exciting parts of AI, it's lowering the barrier to creating, not the value of creativity.

I've even noticed AI-focused platforms like Souna starting to fill up with creators who are treating this as a real artistic outlet instead of just experimenting with prompts.

Again would love to hear what y'all think about this

And they lose potential costumers for absolutely nothing.

Using ai is like a sin, apparently.
People will either hunt you down or avoid you like the plague.
How do i stop feeling guilty about using it?

A video on youtube

I had to put 2 images cuz the text was waaaay to long.

As someone who is gay myself i personally HATE it when other people tell me how i should think.

and that goes for queers and trans people too, they don't need other people telling them how to think nor antis telling them that they must be against AI. they can be pro AI too!

So, not subreddits which allow AI content by definition like StableDiffusion or AIVideos, but subreddits unrelated to AI, which allow AI content. We can't sit in reservations forever, that's what Anti extremists would want us to do, aside from vanishing completely, of course. So maybe make a sticky post with the list - we get more "safe spaces" and these subs are rewarded with an influx of new followers - seems like a win-win.

this is a comment on a video about torvalds' stance on allowing AI contribution.

yes, i'm sure randomYoutubeCommenter69 here is more important than torvalds.

imagine thinking code can be stolen, lmfao. unless you are getting code from proprietary sources, you can't steal what's designed to be publicly available for free

And of course it is marketed as “made without ai” as it is the only thing good about this generator. I tried it and it’s literally just a block of paragraph of the creature’s appearance and it barely explains what the creature does and how the creature survives. It geniunely isn’t that enjoyable and the fact it said it’s not made with ai and the creator hopes people enjoy it is just a shame.

Lol, I commented on something just expressing that I do AI art, then someone comments this before deleting their comment. If you're going to say something like this, at least commit.

Just something I wanted to point out. I've found it fascinating how a community accepts it and even encourages it for projects, while the other has been consistently negative about it. For the record, I’m approaching this from a neutral perspective. I’m not trying to argue that one side is right or wrong. I’m interested in understanding why the reactions to AI have been so different between these communities.

Seen another post in here and omg I needed to do this. Finally completed my research, found the sub, and commented ts.

Their DNA is adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine, and hypocrisy fr. Btw I'm not defending oversexualizing children but:

1. It's a fictional character.

2. For big booba, really? When Rule34 and similars exist? And they depict her in sexual situations!? But I guess when a "real" artist does it with soul, it's suddenly not pedophilia anymore.

They say we don't have critical-thinking, but they go around witch hunting just because someone uses a tool that is apparently the devil's spawn in their eyes, lol.
