based on your points (2 and 3), do you think there are no more "original art" in this world?
Well, to shorten everything down, there are few original building blocks. "Original art" can absolutely be original but, at the end of the day, is usually made up of large blocks of existing stuff. How those blocks function as a whole could be considered the "original" bit when talking about my specific arguments.
I mentioned music because there really aren't many methods that haven't been discovered and used hundreds of times over. If I had a nickel for everytime I sketched out a four-to-the-floor drum variation, I would be a wealthy man. (Nearly every EDM/House/Techno beat uses something like it.) Chord progressions and transitions are best learned from the classics: Beethoven, Mozart, etc.. (Hip-hop/Pop artists are notorious for trying to sue each other over sample theft even though the samples are generally common musical phrases... Eesh.. That is a mess of a situation, btw.)
But. Original art made with original components can still be made. This is a big world, after all.
To clarify though: I do not support the theft of data for the use of training AI. Period. I also don't particularly care for AI art, personally.
thanks for your opinion 🙂
