ok, another scenario : artist has style, didn't make or sell lora. another person creates lora and produce images.
At this point this person has invalidated the IPR and in a lot of country's it's treated as crime.
It's hard to claim an art style alone is IP. But I'm not making a value judgement either way. But, I am in agreement that it would be unethical to sell, specifically, a model trained from another's work.
Or a better example to make it clear: in your picture you have created a lora from breadman's art without his agreement... In that case you are in for a big and expensive fine. for the first lawsuit it would be a criminal one, followed by some civil lawsuits.
I'm not sure if you're using "you" in the deictic form or the generic "you" form meaning "a person." And I'm not sure if by "picture" you mean mental image or the image posted. To clarify both, I was not the person that posted the image, nor trained a lora. Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but that's what I inferred.
Text never conveys tone well. So, I don't know if you're being accusatory and try to browbeat, or being genuinely constructive. I'll assume the latter and not introduce enmity into a topic people rarely are dispassionate about.
unfortunately the redrawing of ai art takes longer than to do it "the proper way".
I agree: "redrawing for an experienced artist is probably faster than hoping inpainting gets it right."
Another thing would be the reference image, if it is too pleasing as an artist you chain yourself to the reference. for character dev you are quicker with "doodeling"
That's an interesting point. I don't have experience with that. I just meant It could produce representations of variation faster than human to give the artist an idea how it'd look: hairstyle, clothing, anatomical reference, etc.
Back to your example with cnc/robots, i doubt you feed lots of reference blueprints and pictures of other parts into an ai and feed the result into the robot (maybe in future, wouldn't be surprised). EDIT: Was told by a coworker that you can create simple parts for 3d-print with ai, at the moment the results are not perfect. Meh, nice new world.
I know it's not what you meant, and I understand the creative differences but I got a chuckle thinking about a modern engineer designing a metal part, getting it milled, and then dropping a 100 pound weight on it. Instead of just using a stress test In CAD.
To my knowledge, that's all AI is really doing: ingesting data people give it, interpreting it based on a set of parameters, and reproducing it when queried. At least until we hit AGI.
personal opinion: So let me create a fictive game, i create the storyboard with chatgpt, create the models with genai, link the models to some mocaps or similar, create the code with the help of an ai and use also code snippets from internet to spice things up. Somehow i would feel very bad to name this game "my creation" and would shame myself.
Okay. Build a birdhouse. I don't know what to tell you. That's your personal view. But, wouldn't you be happy if you did do that, released a game, and people enjoyed it? I mean, people tape a banana to a wall and call it a radical, revolutionist idea in the meaning of what art means, or some bs. Either because they believe or they know some other sucker will. You may feel shame, but others have produced less and have felt pride.
