Hi. What we are saying is that using the derivative product of the stolen works, talent, and likeness of other artists to then inject it into "art" is called theft. It isn't moral, it is not right, and it certainly is not about "telling people what they are allowed to do".
That you are conflating the real ethical and moral objection to the use of generative AI in "art" with being some kind of scold is ridiculous.
Get a coach.
If you are green and brand new to the industry and have zero acting experience. Sign up for local acting lessons and get yourself a coach.
A 1 hour private 1 on 1 coach is going to be more valuable than 5-20 mins of performance in a 2-3 hour workshop.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
We are working hard on BURIED GIANT. We have a lot of experimentation ahead. But this entire community never gives up- never abandons its faith: Made by humans for humans. Whomever joins this adventure is doing the animation Gods' work.
I have decided to drop out of the AI program at Amazon. I will not be making a Punky Duck series. Actions speak louder than words.
My intent was to showcase artists, both new and seasoned, both inside and outside the studios, driving this new tech.
My sincerest apology to those I upset. I promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for your patience with me. I will try harder.
You’re a good man. It is very seductive that something now exists that contains the collective works of millions of artists and wordsmiths all thrown in a blender allowing one to pour out on demand things based on suggestions and prompts. You become a soul stealer, a grave robber of sorts. You are an artist! God gave you a far greater gift and purpose to share with others. We need your true self!
