What the AI Antis tell you about AI: “AI steals from artists! It chops up copyrighted materials and Frankensteins a new image!” How it actually works: AI gathers Noise (static) and organizes it based on the instructions provided to it by the HUMAN behind the keyboard. The more detailed the script (prompt) the better the result. At this point, the AI Antis will then default to… “Oh yeah? Well AI trained by looking at other people’s art!” To which I respond: “So was I!” And then it’s, “That’s different.” No, no its not. Its not theft to learn by looking at others. And if it’s immoral for the computer to learn that way, its immoral for the human to learn that way too, and then how do we learn anything at all? The point is, the Antis lie. They lie to spread fear because they are trying to gatekeep a industry they aren’t even talented enough to be a part of. I do both. I’m the pencil and paper guy who has been ripped off bigly by digital artists twice now… I’m in no mood. Too many digital artists are flat out con artists and have no business complaining about AI. Fix your shit. Git Gud. Get timely, and correct your bad attitude and you will get more customers. AI isn’t the problem… they are.
