You can hardly find a studio the works of which are so thoughtful, kind, and intentional as Studio Ghibli. To stripmine that for its aesthetics, to take a piece of cardboard and paint it like food and say "See, doesn't this taste just as good?" is more than missing the point, it's barbaric, dystopian. It's an insult to life itself. #OpenAI
The negative reaction to lots of non-artists getting the chance to make something they find aesthetically nice and imitating a style they admire is insane.
No person who types a few words into ChatGPT is going to start thinking of themself as better than Miyazaki.
I can understand criticizing the way OpenAI is profiting from this, but please don't call regular people trying out a new tool barbaric and dystopian.
@satchlj @Gargron I've written about this in other places, but the accessibility argument here also really fundamentally misunderstands what art is.
Who told you that you weren't an artist and that this AI slop is better than even the most basic scribbles you put down on a page?
"Non-artist": what does that even mean? Do you express things? Do you have emotions? Want to communicate them? You're an artist.
@foxyoreos @satchlj @Gargron someone whom I know started to post on social media AI generated texts where he put a prompt about some matters related to spam.
I tried to read one of them not even knowing at the beginning how it was "created" and had this immediate vibe it isn't him, these too round shaped sentences with a lot of nothing.
I gave up after a few sentences.
I'd rather like to read his original thoughts, even if there were grammar mistakes.
To me it is equally ethical as paying someone to write your thesis.
@foxyoreos @satchlj @Gargron I don't know if it is barbaric, stealing and plagiarism definitely.
yeah, it's definitely very bad to try to pass off AI generated content as your own. That's lying.
Even if you acknowledge that an LLM made a text or image, there are good and bad ways to share that. You usually don't want the reader to begin without knowing how the text was made.
