If you’re interested in an actually groundbreaking animation endeavor, I heartily suggest Loving Vincent. First filmed live-action and then having every one of the 65,000 frames hand painted by more than 100 artists it is a testament to team’s dedication & love for their craft.

And this is why USCO was correct in their decision to effectively disallow copyright protection for AI outputs. Users have only an illusion of control, quickly dispelled by even the smallest changes in the model. They’re not creating anything, they are simply using a fancy RNG.

PSA artists, don’t forget to include a clause in your contracts stating clients aren’t permitted to use the art in training AI/ML models. Most are aware, but some are misinformed and think it’s fair game. Only a few will be turned away by this and to that I say good riddance.

Imagine dedicating years or even your whole life to honing your craft, often with great sacrifices to now be pushed aside in lieu of hacks who discovered image or text generators a few months ago. This is happening across all creative industries. This IS a crisis.

Solidarity is our only way through this, and I hope more artists and fans start standing for something even when it isn’t affecting them personally. Throwing another creative profession under the bus all the while trying to defend yours will get you nowhere.

There’s no ‘clever meaning’ and any perceived symbolism doesn’t absolve Marvel of guilt for using a technology built on our misappropriated artwork and uncompensated labor. Symbolism inside fiction is fine. Their actual corporate actions have real world consequences.

So, I guess some artists don’t know ChatGPT has also been trained on copyright protected books, stories, lyrics, poems without consent or compensation? Or they just don’t care when it’s not their skin in the game? Writers are artists and cultural workers too. We need solidarity.

Did you know you can easily mute someone’s retweets if they are bothering you, and still see their posts? Just go to their profile and click the three dots in the upper right corner. “Turn off retweets” should be the first option in the dropdown menu.

Don’t want your AI models broken due to Nightshade? The fix is easy, just ensure you’re licensing the art and negotiating directly with the artists, instead of just scooping up whatever you want without permission.

Do the ‘indie creators should be allowed to use AI because they don’t have much money’ folks know generative AI is largely powered by the exploitation of other indie creators who also don’t have much money?? It’s a nonsense excuse and I’m so very tired of it.

CEO of Epic Games, the company behind Artstation, on why artworks aren’t opted-out of AI training by default. This shows a deep lack of understanding of the art community and the copyright law. It’s all about Epic’s role in history. Bleak stuff.
