Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I don't see why an AI couldn't be trained on specifically non-Western/counter-cultural/marginalized art. It seems trivial?
The bigger problem I see is that it can never make anything truly new, which is why it's important for artists to keep making new art. I just think that AI, as a tool used carefully by artists to enhance their work or to take shortcuts on repetitive work, is fine.
As you said, companies are happy with AI goop that's "good enough" and do not care about art, but that's not the technologies fault.
EDIT Well wait, no, actually the way the plagiarism machine seeks to reduce all artwork into data points is also kind of bad since there's no mechanism to force these AI companies to actually compensate artists.
