Again, that makes as much sense as holding Staedtler responsible because someone used their pencils to duplicate a copyrighted work.
So do you want to shutdown Google because I can type "spongebob squarepants" into Google images and Google with give me an image of spongebob?
Please put some thought into the implications of what you're saying outside of AI before you make a knee-jerk reaction like that.
It doesn't matter if Google creates the images.
It doesn't matter if they "intend" to profit from illegal works.
It doesn't matter if they "give credit" (this is the one that's the dumbest because it just reeks of ignorance, like thinking you can use whatever works you like as long as you put a credit to them in the description)
Google showing you copywritten images when you search for them is not different than when an AI does it.
Imagine getting this riled up over a stranger on lemmy thinking something different to you.
Maybe put the phone down, take a deep breath and go for a walk outside for a moment.
Jesus christ this is the most redditor comment.
Okay buddy, I resign. So you can add another tally to your "Internet arguments won" board. I hope your mom makes extra tendies for you tonight in celebration.
