    You’re makin great points!

    I was actually just hearing about this Karla Ortiz copyright case. Sounds like it’s going to shine a big ol spotlight on how these systems work and how exactly they copy other people’s work.

    I wonder if it could make things so prohibitively expensive it’s no longer worth investing in for most companies. At the very least, it hopefully gives artists/content creators some kind of legal protection

      I’m hoping the trend’ll mostly burn itself out while people figure out how to scale due to the business model’s inherent lack of sustainability and rising energy costs, but if it doesn’t the least we can do is help artists defend what little they do have.

      I really fear for 2D artists and indie music producers because 2D art and instrumental music seem like the easiest media to rip off without credit or compensation. Even 3D artists might not be safe depending on how good these models can get at creating 3D meshes that don’t look like Eldritch homunculi.
