New York Times Best Seller "Mal Molt Dosta Dood Doolth", or "storybook about a baby seal disguised as a loaf of bread that only eats Doritos and drinks Mountain Dew in a magical forest of smiling happy rat families"

Except for the hilarious titles, Stable Diffusion does a better job IMO:

I mean, I wouldn't mind if Open AI/Midjourney/etc had to pay out like 10% of income to (in-copyright) artists used in prompts proportionally to how often they're invoked. Imo, Rutkowski should be compensated for inadvertently turning out the secret ingredient of fantasy AI art.

Also most copyright isn’t even owned by the artist at this point. In practice the freelancer on deviantart would get 3 cents over their lifetime and you’d open yet another money tap for Disney, Sony and a bunch of obscure Luxemburgish holding companies

Also https://copyrightalliance.org/education/copyright-law-explained/limitations-on-a-copyright-owners-rights/fair-use-exceptions-copyright/

The fair use exception permits a party to use a work without the copyright owner’s permission and without compensating the copyright owner for such use in certain circumstances. The copyright law identifies certain types of uses, including criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research as examples of activities that may qualify as a fair use.

“Ah but training an AI is not actually teaching, scholarship or research”. Idk, we’ll see. And if so, ok then we should change the law to allow it. It’s not hard, but I know a few multinational corporations that will lobby against it every inch of the way

Training an AI is already fair use according to US court precedent. See google vs authors guild, or the turnitin.com lawsuit.


That said, Japan has already added an explicit carveout for training machine learning models.

In theory yes, but in practice there’s no real way of knowing which style the consumer wants to emulate, and styles weren’t protected before and I doubt they will be in the future. That’s kind of like wishing that a music-generated AI would share, for example, income with Sabaton because people make music “in the style of Sabaton” because the consumer is insufficiently educated to know “Swedish ballad power metal” will yield similar results.

Edit: re compensating Greg Rutkowski

I can see a situation where AI models become like cell lines used in biology research, there's a bunch of named cell lines that seem to replicate forever, they have cell lines for testing liver drugs, cell lines for testing heart medications etc etc. Sometimes lines are created as branches from another well known line

There's obviously the dall-e/midjourney/stable diffusion lines now

There is now the "waifu" line from the stable diffusion 1.2; I'm sure someone will take the stable diffusion 1.4 and apply a much larger "waifu" data set to it

Somebody else is going to take the future 1.4 waifu model and they'll append a celeberty photography database to it. Then a couple months later someone will append to the wifu-celeberty model the national geographic photography database to it, and share it on bit torrent. And then someone will train 10,000 images of horses and re-share that, etc etc. Someone will finally train the updated horse ai on a couple thousand images of bugs bunny and share that via bit torrent. ad nauseum. An old copy of the getty images photography database (With tags) will get leaked and we'll train against that.

Doesn't really matter whose images it's been trained on at this point, it's free and you can train new images to the existing model, probably indefinitely. Unless you give the exact prompt with the image, it'll be (I presume) impossible for someone like disney or fox to go after you for using an AI trained on xyz copyrighted materials to generate your work

yeah, I know it's extremely unlikely - it's not like Spotify where you play specific songs by specific artist even when playing "Sabaton radio". But precisely because it would benefit Disney/etc more than random artists, they might get interested in a potential stream of revenue - but more likely by building their own branch of heavily restricted model.

Personally I’m just happy something like stablediffusion exists. Much like how gimp and paint.net allow digital artists to use open source alternatives to things like Photoshop, this will open the door to adoption by all artists instead of reserving AI art to an elite class. And training those datasets without fear for injunctions because a single frame of steamboat willy was used in their training, and subsequently keeping those datasets open source, uncopyrighted/uncopyrighteable, is an important aspect of that.

All the hand-wringing about the medium feels a bit like how photography was supposedly going to kill the visual arts. “Real” Art will adapt (probably dive headlong into the money laundering business) and “not real” art (i.e. pop art, including, yes, a bunch of deviantart sanic OC’s and people making collages of their favourite anime characters kissing) will flourish. And the vast majority of consumers will give AI art a whirl and crap out the equivalent of bathroom stall selfies while artists who dedicate time to master the medium will be more distinguishable fine art photography, by comparison.

I have not, that sounds very interesting

I was thinking earlier, the european version of NASA announced their new space shuttle and I wanted to use stable diffisuion to do a montage with the american space shuttle, and I realized because of the datum the model doesn't contain anything newer than ~July 30, 2022 so I can never do that since the model doesn't know what future (real) technology looks like, unless you start off as a base image. It also doesn't know what, for example, the 2024 ford mustang looks like, and I'm sure there will be other problems over time as it becomes increasingly outdated

It looks like a 2022 Mustang.

But I think the models will get updated and retrained every so often. The $500k or whatever it cost to train SD isn't that much in the grand scheme of things.
