yes i like the joje, i drew dio once in the style of those christian sonic drawings. 2022. i can't draw people much

couldn't watch past chef tony from part 4, i kept rewatching the same episode over and over and over. i also liked reading the duwang version of part 4, that joel video of duwang made me want to look at jojo stuff

imo this shows that ai art sucks but the solution he gave ("laws lol") kinda don't work at the moment under capitalism anyway. also that's a lib take and i am REALLY sorry for not saying that lmfao. straight up ass

ai image generator companies actually make the end user pay for their attorneys and shit back when disney sued them for being able to generate homer simpson with three eyes or some shit

according to paragraph 10 of midjourney tos, they'll come to your house and take your money for attorneys and shit and the only source i can use is a weird possibly computer generated website and i do not trust myself about it, i read their tos using ctrl+f and writing "attorney" and it mentions attorney fines and shit so yea it checks out

the laws work when the law itself is to control the bourgeoisie and it is not managed by them, a la china xi-peel

I don't get what is the bad or wrong part of his take here, except maybe slightly cringe to "entrust his copyright" to a big publisher, that itself is a can of worms.

But there is no solution either, its either we achieve complete radical destruction of everything AI related(having this bubble burst soon would also work but that is just a bet) or some shitty ass compromise, there is no middle ground. He is also correct, every AI art advocate is definitely just looking to shortcut his way towards social acceptance at best or are just outright scammers and grifters looking to make their "big project" aka passive income garbage small business dream shit come true. They don't care to understand that artists choose to be creative because they inherently enjoy the process. If just making art doesn't make you happy then its not for you, pick another hobby or interest.

So again when it comes to the law take, nobody got any better solutions, the Chinese AI grifters(hopium abusers at best) say the same thing, oh its Chinese therefore magicaly the CPC will have more control i.e better laws even though it doesn't stop Chinese tech industry from their own harmful practices e.g all the gambling and shit on mobile games is the most profitable industry.

Nobody got a better take on AI, IMO the lines are clear and its just sad we will most likely lose this fight to these shitty grifters unless we're lucky and the bubble bursts soon. Whoever called him a lib is clueless, naive maybe, to hope the current status quo will solve it, but its either that or complete violent opposition to AI, he can't obviously advocate for that.

the only bad take is copyright, yes

but the real bad take is me existing

you nailed it, i had a talk with someone and the reason is purely copyright as you said. i draw stuff but i am too stupid to protect my anything because i cannot protect myself either

i only know the "pay us our lawyers because you made us infridge copy wrights" thing from whatever company i already forgot

Seems pretty appropriate to part 4

[–] lelkins@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 week ago

tonio has king crimson and all the other episodes redirect to the cooking episode

Having stuff stolen by the AI company sucks but also if the AI is so good at recreating shit then maybe we can have a future where animators don't work chained to their desks like dogs to put out one episode per week

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago

I say that but I'm not looking forward to the first primarily AI animated anime i bet it's gonna look like dog butt

there was an ai-related tool that the jojo animators actually use but i forgot which one

it's merely an assisting motion tween/in between frames type thing that helps with smooth slow punches for example
