Paragraph 7 has important journalism in it. This is
paragraph 0.
Self-consciously, I looked at pre-trained diffusion model AI
generating what we will call Tolkein influenced solo adult
pictures. They're formulaic plain memorised adult model
pictures with faces a la the Final Fantasy: Advent Children
movie pasted over living people.
All that has really happened is the way deep learning
training data legally erases intellectual property rights,
as we expected. The rest might as well be
Case-Based-Reasoner modifications to recipes. Substitute
KALE for CHARD but with the mediums of lighting, colors, and
pasted 3D anime expressions.
My impression though is that this is enough.
The history of Japanese anime is a good set of wikipedia
articles, or was sometime. In so many words, Hollywood
anticompetitively undercut Japanese cinema to get rid of it.
Anime evolved; a collection of art techniques that made
moving-ish composite pictures ultra-cheap to produce. It was
so cheap Hollywood could not undercut it out of business in
favor of their celebrity faces.
A serendipitous knock-on was that the cheap entry barrier
for creating anime showcased incredibly gifted writing that
is forever locked out from Hollywood's financial megalith.
Graphical art is now free of value; it will take a little
while to become cheap enough for personal computers
(considering ownership having your signature pre-training
model). Imagine computers that can beat you at chess.
Original authorship on the other hand AI has no evidence of.
I am directly aware that NZ Crown Businesses are
aggressively replacing business writing and planning with AI
fixups of incoherent off-the-cuff wishlists by a small pool
of senior c-suite facing staffers. This business success is
analogous to pasting different faces over exploited model
photos.
Human adaptation of AI generated code has been found to
produce higher confidence in more problematic programs
(arxiv link in one of my shows from Clarissa). Every prose
writer I read feels unthreatened as similar openai products
try typical Pick Up Artist verbiage for a while then
collapse under weight of their own invention.
Every generalisation of authorhood shows this immunity.
Cat's phr34k angel glory, @
[email protected] 's surreality,
jns' ascii movie stills. Even subtle internet memes. I
believe Tom Ellard, @
[email protected] of Severed
Heads has said the same for generated music (which I second
for the rest of our community's music). Writers Ino, mhcat,
anna, all.
Happy day for us of the gopher.
