I’ve been following the use of A.I. for generating prompt-inspired images for awhile now, and it appears the number one hot topic is morality. If the A.I. engines aren’t well versed in differentiating the difference between copyright infringement and Creative Commons licensing then everything that gets created, by anyone, anywhere, is subject to continuous lawsuits. I guess that’s good for the lawyers, but it’s already inflicting irreparable damage to creators of all types.
Luckily so far most folks realize this, and it’s been brought to the attention of A.I. developers in droves every day of the week. Over time I’m planning on “reporting” on A.I.’s progress in not only the legal sense, but more importantly how it’s changing the very nature of how we approach many tasks, including it’s impression on the art world. We have entered a darker world where crossing plagiarism’s fine line is muddier now more than ever in recorded history.
