A.I. advocates love to pretend they’re real artists, and claims of plagiarism are little more than appropriative attempts to steal a sense of validity. Let’s look at how these hacks justify themselves and see how little techbros understand the concept of hard work.

Unless an AI artist is using a generator that works exclusively on public domain images, then they can’t say shit about effort. I still think this is a new evolution of digital art, and it’s gonna die before people have the chance to actually express themselves because grifters, including corporations, are using it to cut regular artists out of a paycheck.
8:59 the character creation example is absolutely perfect. Literally randomising your way through a mix of preset images is essentially all that AI ‘art’ is. To have the gall to call yourself an artist after that is more than laughable…its pathetic in the most pathetically pathetic way i could imagine.
The only problem with stealing AI “art” is that it’s all so hideous that who would want to?
Surprised this week wasn’t about Nintendo’s latest fuckery with Yuzu.
You could make the exact same arguments about why it’s not ok to steal my Google search results page and it would be no more nonsensical.
Art attack intro hit me way harder in the nostalgia than I thought it would
I read an article in the New York Times with a bunch of “AI “”artists””” (not enough quotes, but whatever) and it sounded kind of impressive, I admit. They were massaging nuance and making suggestions and nudging the creativity and so on.
And it would have been impressive except it’s exactly what happened when I commissioned an artist for some paleoart a couple years ago. I had an idea, he returned a couple rough sketches and I picked my favorite. Then we talked color schemes. Then I had a few minor details. And a couple weeks and a Venmo transaction later, I had it in my hands. Magic! Except totally not and I paid the artist.
Where’s the article about me and my idea? How I massaged it and nuanced it and blah blah blah?
Sure, the painting on my wall doesn’t exist without my idea. But the painting would just be an idea without the labor of the artist. Ai can go screw.
Holy shit! ART ATTACK
Steph might be preoccupied with the hoovering, but she’s still putting in more effort than the tech-bros trying to hoover up all the artwork to weave brainlet imitations.
Media piracy is ALWAYS ethical.
OCD is fuckin horrible! Worst condition in my life. Praise Steph for recognising that o7
I’m investing in computer mice manufacturing, all this right-clicking is gonna wear them out and demand replacement! All the Crypto-hucksters just changed their t-shirts to sling ‘AI’ the same way… But somehow more harmful lol.
As someone with no talent or ability to even learn basic things, the AI image generation tool is just a very fun way to visually create concepts or images I’ve had in my head.
It’s just a bit of fun. Commercialising it is mental, but then commercialising any art is crap by its nature.
AI art is legally uncopyrightable, so “stealing” AI art isn’t a thing, yeah.
If a piece is AI-generated, it’s not created by a human, so it is ineligible under U.S. copyright codes as a minimum. That precident was set when a monkey took a self-portrait with a camera, believe it or not.
Ai images just prove once more that technological innovation is futile if social Progression lacks behind
why was this episodes opening more unnerving than the actual weird ones?
It’s not only morally correct to steal AI content, it’s morally incorrect to _not_ steal AI content
“The development of generative AI is the largest theft of intellectual property since European colonists arrived in Native American lands.” — Noam Chomsky, being right as usual.

Hi Jim!
Since you seem to have such strong views on plagiarism, I’m assuming all the pokemon merch you’re selling on your website is officially licensed? Just wanted to double check since we both agree that stealing other people’s characters for the purpose of earning a profit is morally wrong.
