The actor told an audience in London that AI was a “burning issue” for actors.

    Don’t worry, ““artists”” only complain about ai when open source ai gets released.

      Get your head out of your ass. Their voices are their art and to replicate that is not only disturbing it’s morally wrong. Especially if you do so for profit.

        Nobody complained about copyright when Microsoft had the only image ai in the game, only when the open source stable diffusion came out did they start screeching about how ai was “stealing their jobs”.

            So years of Microsoft’s advertising dalle did nothing to educate the public about how ai works but they’re suddenly all experts the week after stable diffusion comes out?

              No, they didn’t because I’ve literally never heard of it until your comment. And I understand that my experience is anecdotal, but I guarantee I’m not the only one, or even one of only a couple thousand. You severely overestimate how knowledgeable the general public is on AI. Most haven’t even heard of Chat GPT, and that’s in the news, let alone expecting everyone to be interested in it enough to actually educate themselves on it.

              Like you’re the only person in this thread that’s even mentioned Microsoft’s version, yet you think “the public” knows about it?

          Uh no people definitely did. Mostly the people that actually knew how this shit worked. But even laypeople complained when it was just Dall-E and Midjourney.

          What are you talking about? When MS had the only image AI in the game, it was garbage and couldn’t do anything useful. Of course no one was threatened.

          But after researchers got their hands on nVidia 3000 series cards, and finally had access to hardware.

          More advanced research papers started spilling out, which has caused this crazy leap in AI tech.

          Now the image/audio AI is advanced enough to be useful, hence now the threats…

            When MS had the only image AI in the game, it was garbage and couldn’t do anything useful.

            And yet it was still doing exactly the same thing that people are now going on about how “unethical” it is.

            Just goes to show that they don’t actually care how “unethical” it is until it actually poses a threat to their income. It’s about money, not about principle.

              This is such a ridiculous argument it’s not even funny. You have absolutely no evidence to back up your deranged claim. Take your victim complex somewhere else.

      AI can very easily be abused and I don’t see how this is related to the tech being open sourced or not. Fighting to ensure you aren’t exploited is fine and I support anyone to fight against exploitation.

        I don’t get why so many people feel the need to defend big corporations this much. It’s not like they’re going to share the profits with the people who defend them, nor do they probably care.

        If anything, the industry will just use whatever ammo they can to exploit more people.

        Without maintaining and creating protections, they will roll back until there are almost none. Our current labor rights didn’t come for free, they were fought for.

      They downvoted him because he spoke the truth.

      It’s funny how all (or at least most of them) of the parents of those “artists” told them to do/learn something real and now they get their recipe for their bad choice.

      I’ve discussed with someone about how pictures made by stable diffusion is not Art while there are literally “paintings” where the “artist” just jizzed on the canvas which then got declared as Art. I trolled him by sending him multiple generated anime pictures and asked him which is “Art” because he said he could recognize Art. He chose one and fell into the trap. 1

        ChatGPT is why the public is scrambling about AI. AI art has been around awhile and there’s always been complaining because its lame compared to real artists. This has fuck all to do with it suddenly being open source AI.
