    I understand both sides tbh…

    Like, sure people some artists will feel like their actual talent is being infringed, and in cases of those idiots calling themselves “AI Artists”, I agree.

    But also, I got an already existing picture of me and my fiancé in a different art style and we both looked cute, also did the picture of my cat. If I wanted a personalized quality cartoon of ourselves it would’ve cost me at least $150, so for a fun, already existing pic of ourselves I’m ok with it,specially if it’s to keep to myself or maybe posting in a “hey check this out lol” way, I’m not saying I’m an artist or claiming is original content.

    If I wanted a REALLY special picture made to my specifications by an actual artist, of course it would be worth it since I’d ask them to do a “custom” scene and such (that’s the creativity part IMO), but just “translating” an already existing picture, I think is ok as long as you don’t claim you’re the artist or try and get credit for it either.

    Honestly I think whatever this Ghibli trend is about, it’s just good advertisting for the real Studio Ghibli.

        I mean, yeah? “You like a thing I don’t, reeeeeeee kys” is proper reddit/4chan mentality and just childish, let people enjoy things.

            I’ve tried out several ChatGPT flavors and also NovelAI and they aren’t very good at writing yet.

            Sure if you work it you can get a few decent paragraphs but for now LLMs just can’t ‘follow the plot’, and the amount of work needed to keep them on track is basically the same as writing the entire scene yourself

            This may change in the future but for now I’m pretty confident that good writers have zero to be concerned about from generative AI

            Not really, LLMs can’t keep the plot for more than a few paragraphs and still constantly context switch.

            Add on top of that we are currently at 90% saturation for what is possible with LLM technology, meaning that the brightest minds in AI have realized that there is no singularity curve approaching infinity but a bottleneck over the cross-indexing of tokens. The more tokens, the exponentially more connections need to be made.

            Adding a new token means greater overhead and while our technology grows linearly, the cost per token grows exponentially and that is an unsustainable curve limited by the total global possible processing and we’d need to triple that before the next generation of LLMs can have enough tokens to make a difference in quality

            Add on top of that I’ve got 30 years max left to live and I’m pretty confident we won’t see writers lose out in that time.

              So not even good enough for The New York Times. Damn. And an admittance to being purely profit driven. Not quite disproving the accusation of being talentless, now, are we?

                Let me save you some time: There is literally nothing you can post that will cause me to doubt my writing skill, though I invite you to try.

                  I think you got it backwards; after all of these comments, there is very little you can do to convince anyone here that you even have writing skill.
