So you're saying the solution is to consistently uphold the law. Hmm. That sounds like an interesting challenge.

Machine learning algorithms are not even "intelligent" enough to filter out Getty watermarks.

They do not have minds or experiences, any more than zbrush or cinema4D or any other complicated software do.

Furthermore, they do not produce outputs like humans do - the speed and scale are more akin to automated car factories than human tinkers.

Fair use laws were not designed with them in mind.

Y'all need to stop stretching definitions of words past the breaking point.

I am not "acting like" anything. I simply understand the vast difference between a human brain and a highly specialized machine learning algorithm.

Diffusion models are not minds and do not have them.

You only need a very basic understanding of machine learning VS human cognition to be aware of this.

AI =|= Actual Intelligence;

Stable Diffusion =|= Sentient Device.

Is English a second language for you?

Mentally (adverb) - in a manner relating to the mind.

Nothing means anything if you're unfamiliar with the commonly understood meaning of words.

The dictionary definition of "inspiration":

>the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative.

Diffusion models are not, and do not have minds.

If "science" can't move to the next base without getting enthusiastic consent from the other parties it hopes to involve, then "science" should damn well keep its mitts to itself. In the case of OpenAI, "science" got handsy with people's personal stuff who were unaware of what was going on, and who would not have given consent if they had known. OpenAI's approach to science is creepy, unethical, and messed up.

>Humans do take inspiration from others' work...

Ugh. This justification is creaky and useless.

Machines take instructions, and have zero inspiration.

Human artists aren't an endless chain of automated digital art factories producing mountains of art "by_Original_Artist".

One unimaginative guy copycatting another more imaginative artist is not going to be able to flood the market overnight with thousands of images that substantially replace the original media creator.

Apparently his "principles" include being pro-genocide, rape and murder of fellow Europeans, so, yeah, fuck that guy.
