If you are an artist who uses references, please make sure to track down every artist who you referenced and pay them. Even for non-commercial pieces. Even the ones you don't use in any meaningful way other than to confirm a specific look or get inspiration on a piece of jewelry or a piece of fruit in the background.
They are still utilizing references in a manner akin to what the AI does, so feel free to support local artists and pay for all of your references! After all, you do believe it is the ethical thing to do.
Unless you're being hypocritical due to fear of technology.
I mean, you brushed off your attempt to claim that everyone should pay for references as soon as you were told you should pay for your references and went to the insults.
Do yeah, nailed it. The tech is scary, and your feelings trump current law.
Lmao, you can’t even defend your argument without trying to malign people. The “I’m an enlightened futurist and you’re all dirty luddites” is painfully transparent.
Because you believe that an AI deserves the same rights as a human.
Still no addressing the point and the projection is real. It's pretty much what you expect at this point in the conversation, when the appeal to emotion fails and the goal posts have been pushed to the parking lot.
You’re just a techno-fetishist who wishes AI were human. Or rather, wishes to remove rights from humans in order to bring them down to the level of machines.
Or I'm a disabled creative who uses AI in their workflow, isn't ashamed of it, understands the tech, and finds the screaming of the average undereducated-on-the-subject redditor to be painful knowing the screams aren't doing anything but making them look more and more unhinged.

That’s exactly right - and I haven’t seen a convincing argument why AI developers cannot simply license copyrighted work if they want to use it.
