What device do you use?
Added 2024-08-23 04:10:57 +0000 UTCI'm continuing to workout a solution for ai + piracy. If I were to invest in building an app, I need to know what device you use for looking at naughty art. Please pick your preferred viewing device. (For example, if you use your phone 90% of the time and your computer the rest, pick your phone.)

i held a similar opinion maybe a year ago. since then, ai has improved greatly. i believe it will continue to improve rather than reach any kind of bottleneck. for example, midjourney announced only last week theyve improved the issue with hands. as for stylized art, a number of porn artists have already been targeted and trained on. ai replication might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough. now, you can even find people offering ultra cheap commissions to make ai art in the style of your preferred artist. the damage is done. i'm highly doubtful that new legislation would result in any kind of 'roll back.' in the world of porn, piracy+theft has been and always will be absolutely brutal. there are a million piracy sites that make a point of putting themselves beyond the jurisdiction of whichever country's laws would impede them. our very discussion here, right in the patreon comments section, will be scraped. i think artists who already had a following that supported them prior to the arrival of Ai stand a better chance at sustaining their career+income. how each artist copes with having their style stolen is another story. beyond that, the creative industries of art, music and writing will continue to be ransacked. it's art vs consumerism. ask yourself which force is more influential over the world: picasso or amazon?

2024-08-30 14:28:10 +0000 UTCthis is probably a controversial opinion but considering you're losing a lot of sleep on the issue it might be worth mentioning. I somehow feel you shouldn't be worried that much about AI. Don't be mistaken: I am sure it will have a big impact on the artist industry. However, I think what will be impacted mostly will be the side of "casual" drawers/artists, those who have a somehow generic art style that is used a dime a dozen in various applications not necessarily related to creative art (hey, nothing wrong with that, it's a job, and I don't mean that their work shouldn't be protected -but realistically I find it hard to believe that they will not be impacted massively before specific laws will be made for that, as companies will definitely shift to AI for that 'menial' jobs). I'm saying that because AI image products are -generic-; even now, if you're used to them you can smell a possibly AI-generated image with little training after you've used or generated a bunch of them. On the other hand, artists like you, with a specific style and target, are way more difficult to be replaced, if even possible. Of course you can get 'imitation' Hotcha drawings (and even that, hard to do unless someone would train a ML specifically for that -but that's more of a problem of someone wanting to target a specific artist to damage them more than generic AI issue), but people would still want the creative first. Not to mention the creativity in imagining a specific backstory behind a drawing or a series of drawings. It's really a question of target audience and aim of the artistic effort. It's the same reason why you can get a nice fake Picasso painting but it will never replace the original, in a sense. So, while it is reasonable that you're trying to protect your brand and introduce some obstacles for a full reuse of your images for AI before legislation is rolled out, for your well-being consider that it might not be the death sentence you think it is. Of course that's my impression of the situation and not an analytic assessment (I'm not working on AI).
