Fuck off #Meta. Please also take note Apple™ & Google™ and every other fucking company foisting and forcing this bullshit on us.
I'm so glad I barely use FB and gave up on IG long ago. They were trash fires before, and they've now guaranteed that I will continue to forever avoid them, with the burning passion of a million furious suns.
🧵For Artists Wanting To Protect Their Work From AI:
"Nightshade’s developer hopes the tool will make big tech companies more respectful of copyright, but it’s also possible users could abuse the tool and intentionally upload “poisoned” images to generators to try and disrupt their services." https://nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/whatis.html
#AI Bros on LinkedIn:
„This is now going so fast and furious, deepfakes could become a big problem but apart from that its so cool. Just use a photo you like to read or sing for you.“ So cool!
Thats a pattern. Everything so cool, awesome, mindblowing, apart from that its … its so cooooool! 🚀💪🌟🤖🚀🚀🚀
There are many sites offering free, print-ready CC0/public domain illustrations, photographs & vector graphics. Eg, Pixabay offers 4.4 million images, Unsplash 3 million.
Many fonts are also free for commercial use. And you can put the design together in free Open Source software.
With so many free images/fonts available, it's easy to create multiple design concepts for your book/product). And it's all done with the consent of the artists/photographers/typographers.
There's no excuse.
I mean, this is 20 mins work using free software, images, etc. Even a non-designer could manage this after they've learned the basics, which really wouldn't take long at all.
Apparently LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL uses AI-generated imagery for the show's NIGHT OWLS graphic, cutaways, network images... & I am beyond bummed.
SURELY A HUMAN ARTIST WAS AVAILABLE - THIS WAS A CHOICE
I can "understand" why, being an indie film, budget, etc but truly, I'm so angry & sick & tired of everything getting ruined or being tainted or problematic in some way 😞
Please update your bio and identify yourself as Homo sapiens. Examples are "Human Software Engineer," "Human IT support," "Human Linux Sysadmin," "Human DevOps," "Human Content Creator," "Human Book Writer/Artist" and "e/human." t is your time to shine in an age of AI 😂 #FuckAI and #FuckML.
Purely AI subs are really not good. I know because I have toyed around with the software personally. While it may have applications, it's going to result in BAD subtitles.
Crunchyroll just wants to try and cut costs and overwork people who already are horrendously underpaid. Which will result in EVEN WORSE subs.
I want to go back to worrying and complaining about my data being used for creepy targeted advertising. That is suddenly less concerning than the entire internet being strip-mined and slurried to feed LLMs that are themselves sucking the natural world dry and cooking what's left to death with power consumption.
I'm so old, I can remember when the internet was fun.
next time I torrent a bunch of shit because yet another streaming service has risen to claim what they believe to be their slice of the pie, I'm just going to say I'm using their shit to build an AI dataset
It's cool to want to help people in the KDE forum. But it's not cool to use ChatGPT to do so. The answers contains so much bullshit. For example that there is a feature request on Github about this (we don't use Github at all).
Las empresas Juguettos y Toy Planet han decidido que este año sus catálogos de Navidad tocan ser “ilustrados” por excrementos IA, fruto del robo a miles de artistas. Asco de empresas.
Lo ha denunciado el ilustrador Ramón Redondo (Laian) en sus redes, pero no es el único que lo está haciendo.
I've just discovered that my work is also on the list of books being used to train AI without my permission
These AI companies are an absolute scourge.
Who do I sue? #FuckAI #scarfolk #Books3
