The AI slop doesn’t belong on here.
Are you referring to the cartoon version of that “other woman” meme?
Yes, and it’s poorly done, too. The “other woman” shouldn’t be noticing the guy looking at her.
Thievery removes the original
Piracy COPIES the original
What if I stole a clipping from ur apple tree. It’s still there but now I have one too
Is that piracy or theft
Technically it is, but we are talking about software, not real life
Guerilla horticulture.
Ohh, Lemmy support AI slop now, which the software is own and trained by- check note -mega corporation. That didn’t take long.
Also there’s a sneaky little “Support your local artist” on the crying wojak.
Artist/gamedev here, and AI slop does nothing but saturate our spaces with worthless garbage. Feel free to remix my content in any way you want. My game engine is also open source, you can either just use it as it is, or even use some of its parts for your own. But if you think AI is somehow good, then please don’t even touch my content, just ask ChatGPT or watever to make you the same thing based on the same idea I had, but AI.
When I first joined lemmy local AI was pretty popular here. Popular opinion has shifted a lot in the anti-ai direction recently, especially after the recent internet-wide outcry after OpenAI announced that model a few weeks ago. Corporate AI was never liked, but there used to usually be popular comments defending local AI.
It’s probably partially because the last notable advancement in local image gen AI was about 8 months ago now IMO (the flux model release). Also, ‘open source’ ai has become progressively less of a thing, with most models (even ones with released weights that you can run locally) released under restrictive licenses, probably turning away the foss-leaning fediverse population.
I think I have personally realized, since then, that the benefits of from-scratch image generation on society as a whole are almost nonexistent and “it’s fun to play with for a few hours” isn’t enough really justification for the potential harm to artists.
I really don’t have issue with AI, the issue i have is post like these. Real people are getting affect by this AI and losing income due to this, it’s real dick move to mock their anger and frustration.
I don’t think anyone says the Ghibli filter is copyright infringement. You can’t really copyright an art-style. It’s just kinda a dick move.
I think you’d have to have a pretty unique style but if you could come up with one, you might be able to trademark it rather than copyright it.
Why is it a dick move?
Because Myasaki has very publically spoken about thinking AI generated stuff is horrible and soulless, and that he’d never use it. Them coming out with a Ghibli filter felt like it was a reaction to that.
Well for one, they didnt come out with a Ghibli filter, they just removed restrictions on imitating art styles and using ghibli style just became a trend.
And honestly who cares what Miyazaki thinks? He’s famously stuck in the past, stubborn and kind of elitist.
I am honestly not informed enough to say whether the whole Ghibli trend grew organically, or whether it came from OAI marketing.
And yeah, Myasaki can be a bit of a dick, but I don’t think he’s wrong here. I worked with both LLM and image generation for some personal projects, and you have to coax it a lot to get anything halfway usable, and even then, it isn’t great. Even stuff that’s heralded as exemplary by the corps behind the trend mostly seems kinda shitty.
Also, even if you like GenAI, most of the stuff that OAI is doing right now feels like desperate attempts to keep the hype train rolling, to justify their frankly ludicrous valuation.
A lot of people care what Miyazaki thinks because he created over a dozen films that are beloved by millions because of their artistry, is well respected in the anime/manga world, and is generally regarded as a master of his artform. People tend to take your words seriously when they have nearly 50 years of experience and success behind them.
Yeah and JK Rowling created one the biggest and most popular series of all time.
That doesn’t mean her opinions deserve any sort of special consideration.
The issue with Rowling is more that she started talking out her rear end about something of which she doesn’t have much, if any, understanding. If she gave you advice on writing YA fiction, it’d be worth something. Miyazaki is a visual artist broadly respected for his art, so his opinions on visual art have some weight. If it was about the cultivation of kumquats, I think I’d ask a farmer.
Yeah maybe, but I would be willing to bet a lot of money Miyazaki couldn’t tell you how stable diffusion worked if his life depended on it.
Goodbye

“I need you again old friend.”
Miyazaki, the shit take machine deadbeat dad who’s kinda known for being overall somewhat of a cunt? That miyazaki? His opinions don’t matter to me personally.
I expect to be burnt at the stake for this but SMH you people are falling over yourselves over someone just because he made good anime.
-
He wasn’t a deadbeat dad. He was a workaholic and distance father, but he provided for his kids.
-
He was a workaholic and expected the same level of commitment from his employees, not more. He frequently reanimated whole scenes while his eyes would allow it. Difficult to work with? Sure. Cunt? Nah.
-
His work consistently had anti-war, pro-environmental and pro-worker/socialism themes. He made something more then “good anime”.
I’m wondering what shit takes you think he has or why they should outweigh his other accomplishments.
btw, Miyazaki grew up around his uncle’s plane factory. That’s why he has an appreciation of flying scenes and why he made Wind Raises, which really isn’t pro-war when you start dissecting it.
edit: He also has some of the best written female characters, each unique and sensible for the story.

As I said, two things can be true. He’s a dick, but I still think he’s right about this.
if the soyjak was hugging the shitty ghibli AI slop while complaining about the rest, this would’ve been 10/10
Comparing individual piracy with a mega corp making millions of other peoples art style. I see.
there are models an individual can run on gaming hardware (ones that fit in the GPU’s vram or apu’s shared RAM)
Someone got some cut down versions of Stable Diffusion to run on a Pi Zero 2 a couple years ago ($15 computer)
Apparently it takes between 30 minutes and 10 hours to generate an image, but it’s still fairly impressive that it can do that at all
I am ok with everything in this but fuck AI slop.
Meanwhile we’ll just take this mod and make it a gamemode, Charge for ideas used in emulators, charge for emulators.
One of these things is not like the others
I look forward to opensource games on an opensource game store that allows devs to get paid. That would be amazing.
https://itch.io/ is pretty close just no exclusivly OS
That would be nice.
Very nice! Now, let’s see Paul Allen’s straw man…
There’s still time to delete this

The only reason you would want any less than open source is if you are a greedy fuck.
