Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

genAI is, at its core, the most fundamentally unlikeable people trying to shortcut their way into community and perceived „fame and adoration“, but without doing any of the work or even self reflection.
The real hand is shown when the first people who tried to get validity for using AI in an art space came to animation and comics first, it’s all about wanting the fame and notoriety of actually working without doing the work, this is the logical conclusion of that

The big takeaway here is that Reuters won this case against the AI company on grounds they violated fair use—the judge found the AI company was guilty because, in using copyrighted works to generate its output, it “meant to compete... by developing a market substitute.”

Thomson Reuters has won the first major AI copyright case in the US. The decision has big implications for the battle between generative AI companies and rightsholders.

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product.
On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

I got blocked for this comment. Scientists and journalists: AI "art" takes away commissions from living, breathing artists. There is as much of a moral/ethical problem with AI as there is an environmental one. Remember: the only people excited about AI are excited for their bottom line.
Every single AI image you've shared on this platform could have been a commission that paid for an artist's rent, medical bills, meals, etc. so no the number is absolutely, certainly not zero

Yep. "Noai" flags are unenforceable by nature.
You think companies who unethically scrape stuff would turn on the anti scraping guardrail on their scraper? 😅
That's not something bsky or anyone can control!
Now do y'all see what Ms Ortiz & other plaintiffs are fighting for? #FukAI

For example, this might look like a setting that allows Bluesky users to specify whether they consent to outside developers using their content in AI training datasets
Bluesky won’t be able to enforce this consent outside of our systems. It will be up to outside developers to respect these settings

Ohayou Bluesky. It’s cloudy here. Let me tell you about another trend among Japanese artists. They're moving to Xfolio from pixiv nowadays. Xfolio clearly says they ban all of genAI images, while pixiv is pro-AI. Many AIbros have tried to spam Xfolio, but they have been swept off into the dustbox.
