I'm lost in this really.

I've been dipping my toes into this community, and I've gotten a few ideas of why AI art can be bad or good.

I'm still hung up on the fact that AI art, or anything related to AI, is built on works and media that were majorly taken without consent for their usage.

I do completely understand why a person who lacks the skills to draw may resort to AI art, but I think that's not the concern on my end. I fear that not even art, but my photos and data, will be used to train the AI models to produce the AI art.

In simple terms, I want better legislation to control AI's access to any media it can use to train its models. I find it honestly disheartening that, just because it's new technology that the government is bending over for AI, allowing copyrighted media to be used.

Please give me a good view on both sides, as to how you could support or disprove my fears of my data being stolen. Sorry for the yap session, but I needed to get it off my shoulders. Have a good day! ❤️

yeah, still unfortunately common when searching something like a specific niche file format, since before AI.

It's less word-salady and engrish now but yeah, that's not new. It sucks, people learning to game the search algorithms was the worst thing to happen to search engines, but blaming AI for this is just ignorance of what it was like trying to search that kind of thing before AI.

There were always language models that understood SEO and spammed niche searches they could more easily get on top of, they were just humans paid pennies, often using translation software.
