So I got no reason to share my drawings, since it will only be good to the AI corporations
I feel your response warrants quite a deep and philosophical response in return.
That depends why you were sharing them in the first place. It does suck that your content will be stolen and potentially recreated in the future - I have to ask, how do you foresee that affecting you?
Let's go back to 2010, you share your drawings, some people see and enjoy them, and the world keeps spinning. Is that what you want to share them for, for people to enjoy them?
If that's the case, then my question is: Why does that change if AI is scraping your drawings?
People will still see and enjoy your drawings, regardless of whether AI consumed them or not.
Why will it only be good to the AI corporations? That implies that it wouldn't be good to anyone anyway, in which case, there is no point posting them either way - but I don't think that's true. I think it's good for you to share your drawings and get feedback, and it's good for other people to see them. The addition of AI is a negative one, but it doesn't remove the good, it just adds some bad.
I mean, I draw for people to enjoy, but at the same timw I will only help artists to lose their jobs, so...
Ultimately it's up to you, but my view is that our best way of resisting AI is to build community and human connection. A friend who is an artist told me that AI has changed how and where they share their art, but that it would feel like a form of "complying in advance" if they stopped sharing their art at all.
They said that they feel completely confident that AI art will never be able to replace human art, because to them, art is fundamentally a conversation, and Generative AI is incapable of participating in a conversation, no matter how good it gets at emulating real artists.
okay now the issue isn't connection with people, the issue are my drawings. I don't wanna help artista lose their jobs.
