Comment on Not everything needs to be Art

  Why is it valid for you to be trained off of art you didn’t have rights to but not for an open source program running locally on my PC?

  It would not be a copyright violation if you created a completely original super hero in the art style of Jack Kirby.

    What’s the equivalence you’re trying to make? The program itself may be open source, but the images the model’s been trained on are copywritten.

    And if you personally hand made it, sure. By nature, nothing an LLM makes is “completely original”

      The equivalence is that nothing human artists make is “original” either. Everyone is influenced by what they have seen.

      You are arguing that if you created a completely original comic book character in the art style of Jack Kirby, you committed a copyright violation.

        Computers do not get “inspiration” or “influence”, and that’s quite literally not what I’m arguing. Maybe I’m just talking to an AI lol
