Of course, I’m not in favor of this “AI slop” that we’re having in this century (although I admit that it has some good legitimate uses but greed always speaks louder) but I wonder if it will suffer some kind of piracy, if it is already suffering or people simple are not interested in “pirated AI”

      How is what they’re doing different from, say, an IPTV provider?

        So a while ago I was on a platform where the community valued art that was made by actual artists. AI Art was strictly forbidden and anyone who showcased said AI art in their gallery or used it as a profile picture, had it removed and could face penalty.

        AI has been trained to generate art styles from many artists by crawling through the web. Anyone can go to any AI generating source, punch in a few descriptive keywords, tell AI to mimic a style as closely as possible and now you have a copy of said material.

        The difference is, is that IPTV is just an internet-based streaming station similar to how networks operate to broadcast television shows. There’s nothing to really pirate.

        More like, they took content and make money from it without paying to content creator.

            Explain how.

            Because training an AI is similar to training a person. You give it a bunch of examples to learn the rules from, then it applies what it learned to the prompt it is asked. The training data is not included in the end result.

        Nope, there’s a difference there in that they aren’t taking something from ordinary people who need the money in order to survive. Actors, producers, directors etc have already been paid and besides, hollywood etc aren’t exactly using that money to give back to society in any meaningful way most of the time.
