As an artist, nightshade is not something I will ever use. All my art is public domain, including AI. Let people generate as many pigeon pictures as they want I say!

That’s great for you, truly it is, but for others it’s not.

Mind explaining what artists it isn't good for? I genuinely don't see why it is so hard to let others remix and remake.

[–] beebarfbadger 2 points 10 months ago

The artists whose stuff was stolen with the intent to profit from replacing their labour with the click of a button.

Believe it or not I need to eat food. Crazy I know.

Oh hey nice! So do I!

Do you have a means of securely and reliably getting it? Cause I don't.

You really come across as coming from a place of privilege whilst lamenting that the reason poor people are worried about this is because they're just not as nice as you.

Lmao I have never been rich, in my entire life. It isn't like my art is being directly copied.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

Yeah same. Empowering people to be more creative has never stuck me as something that needs to be gatekept. Tools have constantly improved allowing more people to become artists. If it's the copying of styles you're worried about, I'd take it up with every artist that's learned from Picasso or Da Vinci.

Well, if you can't beat them, join them! You have to adjust to the pace of what society is moving towards.

What if it's adjusting towards segregation and fascism? Should we go for that too?

[–] Zeon 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Seriously? This literally has nothing to do with segregation and facism.
