    AI doesn’t copy things anymore than a person copies them by attending a concert or museum.

      This is 100% correct. You can downvote this person all you want but their not wrong!

      A painter doesn’t own anything to the estate of Rembrandt because they took inspiration from his paintings.

            So if it can’t function properly without other people’s work deciding what the art will look like that’s called copying.

            If human beings get shit for copying famous art or tracing we need to hold AI to the same standard.

              Copy

              1. noun a. an imitation, transcript, or reproduction of an original work (such as a letter, a painting, a table, or a dress) b. one of a series of especially mechanical reproductions of an original impression c. matter to be set especially for printing; also: something considered printable (such as an advertisement or news story)
              1. verb a. to make a copy or copies of b. to model oneself on c. to transfer (data, text, etc.) from one location to another, especially in computing

              I can’t believe I just had to provide you with a definition of the word copy.

              Are you freaking serious!!!

              Being inspired by and creating an original production is not the same as copying if that original work is inspired by other artists!!!

              By your definition of copying because Elvis Presley was inspired by Muddy Waters they made the exact same music!

              LLMs don’t produce copyrighted material they take inspiration from the training data so to speak. They create original productions.

              In the same way that you can envision the Mona Lisa in your head but you couldn’t paint it by hand.

          Sigh, more censorship.

          We need better communities that let people decide for themselves what they get to see.

            Totally agree. This kind of crap started happening after the great reddit exodus of 23. Shitty reddit mods made their way to lemmy and this is what we get.

            If you wanna see something cool just type the word “trans” into your comment and watch the downvotes come in!

            Keep an eyeball on this comment! You’ll see!

      You need to learn how your god functions.

      If it needs training data then it is effectively copying the training data.
