What is AI, page 5.

Sorry I missed last Saturday - Contrary to popular opinion, I actually DO have a life, and that means I must occasionally make hard choices about what I spend my brutally limited time on.

What is AI, page 5.

So true there is such a thing as too much automation. Oh what was that Early sort film about Mechanization.. It was true, it made Artisans obsoletes

Justin Cardinal Schubert

Key issue here is that even with the most advanced A.I. currently available, it takes great loads of time to train it to learn a single key character, let alone an art style or concept/fetish/idea. Not to mention compiling the quality raw reference material for it to study from and then the MILLIONS of hit-and-miss attempts to get it to learn what is what, let along get a fraction of the way close to what the requester is desiring. Whereas a good human artist can be given a 1-to-5 quality reference images, or a list of very descriptive details and then create what is being requested in just a few attempts . . . if not nail it right off the bat. And A.I. is useful for producing 100s of varying images of a single character in slightly different poses, styles, conditions, etc . . . but not if you're looking for something really complex. It lacks the understanding and the imagination to correctly interpret, design, and then construct such images. Case in point . . . you want a portfolio of your favorite star character in several dozen different images featuring a key concept or style . . . A.I. can help after you've spent hours if not days teaching it what the character is suppose to look like, get that locked in, and then teach it the concept or style. But if you want a real dynamic image of a dozen characters at a party or battle using a wide variety of complicated actions, outfits, and even kinks . . . you are going to need about a solid year of none-stop teaching to get the A.I. even half-way close to attempting such a project and then over 90% of the images produced are going to look like a big primordial soup mix. A.I. is a helpful and fun playmate, but it is a long, LONG way away from being able to compete with a real artist.

The artists portfolio becomes an asset in this scenario, like digital land ownership. These models are hungry for quality data.

You'd need a library of works that are valid to train from. Anything outside that library isn't fair game and regulation would require that any model train would have to have it's dataset be made public. People with large libraries of works that improve the model when added to the base public domain works would then be capable of negotiating for the inclusion of their works in the training data. And/or as possible emulations with said model. Then it becomes a marketing opportunity for a model. Sorta how Netflix has X shows. X model can emulate Y artists legally.

Interesting idea. How would an indie creator find the time and resources to chase down scofflaws who don't pay up, and instead try to fly under the radar?

Mark Ashworth

See, that's an easy solution. License your art as part of the training data, or sell the right to emulate your style using an existing model.
