A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

One ethical AI usage I've heard was a few artists who take an untrained bot and train it on only their own artwork
What's an "untrained bot"? Did they code it from scratch themselves? I find it almost impossible to believe it wasn't just a fork of an existing, unethical project but I'd love more detail
I remember they said they bought it and explained how they used it to increase their own productivity and how being trained on other artwork was a detriment because it wouldn't generate in their style. Probably was a fork of an unethical project lol
