The copyright system we have now is not good and I am surprised people are defending something not worth defending. As for the mythical struggling artist killed by AI please show me them.
Mythical? Way to spell out that you don't keep up with one single artist or the struggles they face.
Like I said before, I agree that the Copyright system is severely flawed and it needs a complete overhaul. Because the law that is intended to protect and support creators should do just that instead of being a tool for corporate control and profits. Even creators of derivative works ought to have better protections than they have now. It should enable them to maintain a livelihood and continue creating, which benefits our whole culture by the introduction of new ideas and aesthetics.
It shouldn't, though, enable their replacement.
But hey, you couldn't make any more clearer that you don't give a single fuck about any of that. What, do you just hate Copyright because you want free shit?
Name the artist. Name the artist that has gone broke solely because chatgpt copied their work. One single name.
You think you got a gotcha there, don't you? No need to discuss it in a measured way if you can take a single debatable point and cling to it like your life depend on it.
By definition I can't know if one artist truly quit or not or why if they aren't posting anymore. They might simply disappear. Also, commercial use of AI is just starting to ramp up so expecting the impacts to be immediately observable else it isn't happening, is just not a reasonable way to evaluate the situation.
The point of AI is to make creation of text, images and audio faster and easier without any human effort. It's only logical to expect it to substitute people's work.
I have heard people saying things about how AI is already being used for roles that would employ people. If you want names and proof of full bankruptcy you can go look into it yourself. But I'm not going to make a full investigative essay for someone who's making bad faith single sentence responses.
Though thinking of it, wasn't this news article posted in this very community? Duolingo lays off staff as language learning app shifts toward AI Well, the way you are acting you might just say "oh but that's not an artist", to try to 'win' the argument on a technicality, despite proof of AI usage leading to job losses.
Cool. You can't name a single artist that lost their job because AI stole their work. I am glad you agree that this "crime" has no victim and it is just TERF shits like Rowling trying to get more money. Thank you for being open minded enough to change your views based on evidence.
Oh look at that, exactly the type of shallow pedant response I thought you would give, and even spiced up with completely unrelated guilt by association. You know, as if Rowling was the only writer ever and no poor trans artist existed.
🙄
As expected, you straight up pretended you didn't see the Duolingo thing. Truly words are wasted on you, you can't even be stubborn in a challenging way. I'm done with you.
Please pay me fifty dollars for describing what I wrote as it was under copyright
