*God seeing humans use AI to translate languages in real time*
God: last time they all spoke the same language they almost built a tower to heaven. What are they doing now?
Angel: Seeing what it would look like if white people were black and listening to Bad Bunny
God: oh ok cool
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF Last thing I’ll say- if I could train an ai on your Twitter and say “write a million tweets like him” - would that be protected in your mind? I can train it on a single person and say take their style and run with it and monetize- at a certain point that seems wrong
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF Hmm perhaps I can choose a better analogy. I can post a cover of a song, post to YouTube and monetize it. If I post a recording of that song (even if I recorded it on my phone of a speaker playing it) it will direct all money to the artist. My point being not about how laws work-
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF But again I understand your point. I’m really just trying to reconcile the difference between human ability to copy and machines and if it ever becomes theft. I guess not
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF But merely 2 point out that machines themselves can copy things 2 such a degree that it becomes infringement. I’m not saying style should be protected necessarily, just trying 2 acknowledge that the level at which they “copy” and “mimic” seems different than how we could before
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF I suppose that’s where It feels murkier to me. I can draw a copyrighted statue and sell it but I can’t take an image of one and sell it. When machines enable us to copy things 1:1 (something a human couldn’t do on their own) the law changes.
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF I guess it just feels somehow less “fair” when the ai is trained on it in a way that makes it able to be copied so precise in a way a human never could. Me singing like Elvis is ok (Greta van fleet good example) but a machine copying his voice 1:1 seems like a different thing
@ecutruin@smang_it_drums@JessieStarTF Hmmm I see your point but I wonder then. Does that mean I could create a new cartoon in the exact same animation style as South Park (with new characters) that is so identical anyone who sees it would think it’s South park? And then sell merch utilizing that style?
@DankestSeed@Tooth_Chipper@nikitabier The way I look at it, it got more eyes on my video and gets people to recognize me for future videos. So if he gets some views / money I was never gonna get in first place I don’t mind so much (though I appreciate the thought)
I feel like the easiest way to fight against AI influencers would be to start generating our own versions of the ai characters and dilute whatever power they think they wield by showing them when it's this easy to make, it's this easy to steal
Timothée Chalamet about his Grammy nomination:
“We’re in a stacked category. It’s like K-Pop Demon Hunters, it’s Wicked—so I’m imagining Bob Dylan in a Mortal Kombat of it all.” 😭
