*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-

AI prompters want to be seen as artists but don't want the critique on basics all creatives get. Why? Because the nature of their tool pushes out visually polished, yet structurally unrefined pieces via insane speed and broad referencing that throws consistency and detail out the window, and they don't want to risk generating again and drifting even further from their intent, so they just pretend the flaws don't exist. Some of them care. Some of them are trying to explore and frustrated that their Idea is not excepted. But a HUGE amount of them are just here to "stick it to artists" to put out mass spectacle over substance, putting a denial and laziness on display which goes a long way to show why they never honed art skills. They don't like technique, process, and time investment, because it's all missing from their prompted generations.

@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.

@MilleaSean @smang_it_drums @JessieStarTF Humans are quite capable of reproducing styles as accurately as they can using AI tools. We even have restoration artists that specifically teach themselves how to emulate various other artist's styles.

@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

@MilleaSean @smang_it_drums @JessieStarTF A style is not property. It isn't even considered intellectual property, as copyright doesn't protect a style. So, no. What you're describing is competition. Outcompeting another artist by producing new works in a similar style is not theft.

@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?

@ecutruin @smang_it_drums @JessieStarTF Is taking their style and hurting their chance at profiting off their work not depriving them?

@smang_it_drums @JessieStarTF 2. Theft is the act of depriving another of their property. Training AI on an artist's art does not deprive them of said art. If you are using the term theft to refer to infringement, a US court ruled training AI is fair use. reuters.com/legal/litigati…

Round 2 is on the way

@joeroganhq I made this video for H&R Block! Thanks for sharing 😂 arm is sore but there’s a round 2 on the way…

He’s been waiting for this moment his whole life. x.com/ClarifyAI/stat…

Shout out H&R Block for being cool enough to let me make this ad for them

@JiujitsuOtter I made this video for H&R Block! Thanks for sharing 😂 arm is sore but there’s a round 2 on the way

“I’m gonna claim you as a dependent” is diabolical work 😂x.com/ClarifyAI/stat…

@memechaotic This is me haha thanks for sharing

I did not see that ending coming 🤣

@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)

@MilleaSean @Tooth_Chipper Im not saying there was any ill intentions, but in situations like this shouldn't the original original content creator be the one getting a pay out if a post does numbers @nikitabier ?

GM. Your daily wheeze.

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

Marty Supreme was awesome

@b1lalrmcf Just noticed I quoted the wrong tweet but someone was like wow Jimmy funny for once or something lol

@MilleaSean He just made one slightly funny joke bro come on

Jimmy Fallon hate is so forced bro people see it’s popular to dislike someone and use it as an easy punchline. He is objectively very talented
