Art Share🎨
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

What this community seems to be, to me, is a place for people to share the art they've personally created with a wholly positive response. It's for people learning, those less serious, and the dedicated to come together and show off what they've done. The AI part was not done by you, nor do you have permission to use that art.
Two questions come to mind. Firstly, would I be able to take the art posted here, alter it, post it back and never credit the original artist stating it as entirely my creation? Secondly, if we see the AI part as the posters creation, why ban AI art at all? Lastly, how much AI is allowed?
I don't think we should allow this. I would like a community that allows people to show off their personal skills, no matter what level. Allowing partial AI art does not fit into that place. Look at a recent post where, though the self made art is simply fantastic with a great style, the entire background was an AI generated city.
Full disclosure, I contribute (via code) to a small AI art application that only takes art we have permission for.
If I take some random piece of art online and past it into Photoshop before altering it that art isn't my art. Sure, it may take alot of skill and effort to create the changes but in the end It's still plagiarism. Look at the controversy around a magic the gathering artist tracing another, smaller artists work. They were fired, and the act is seen as plagiarism. How does doing the same with AI change the act? On the topic of other art taking pieces and integrating it into their work, they use fair use doctrine. It's made as a parody of the art, and the original art is obviously credited in some way. In ai, you credit nobody for their work. It's not taking the design of a can of campbells soup like Warhol, where you can tell where he got the original, it's tracing the art from hasbeen hotel and pretending it's your own.
Look, if you have permission from every person involved in the model to use their art in said model, I have no issue with it but that's not currently the case.
I could go into why, but this is already going to be fairly very large, but by necessity all output from a model must come from the original training data
A very well thought out response. Thank you.
