  • These models rely on pre existing art for their output, usually art which is taken without the artist's consent, which is why a US District Court ruled that AI generated images cannot be copyrighted. If the AI's output relies on pre existing art that has been taken without consent, then uploading it is largely considered to be art theft, and by changing the style that would also be considered modifying someone's art without permission.

    The way I see it is that it's a bit like tracing. I'd be okay with someone tracing my art if it helps them practise, under the condition that they do not upload the traced piece or any parts that were traced from my drawings. If they uploaded something that has been traced, that would be art theft and I would be eligible to report it.

  • Serious question time. Does anyone else have the issue of realizing they haven't had any good experiences with anyone of any public service occupation?

    Jump

  • Nope, in my case I've had good experiences with them. The important thing to consider here is that these authorities aren't a monolith, they're individuals. How one cop deals with something can vary vastly compared to how another cop will deal with it, teachers will often have their own style of teaching and level of competency, et cetera.

  • Love your voidie and tabby! They look so comfortable here, it's making me feel sleepy! 😌

    What did you lose along the way and how will you restore it or make things right again?

    Jump

  • Inclination to trust people after an abuse of loyalty.

    I saw a classmate who didn't appear to have any friends, and I felt bad for them, so I started sitting next to them at the dinner tables and we quickly became friends. I'd only known them for maybe two weeks at most, when they suddenly demanded a large sum of money from me, money which I neither had at the time, and a transaction that my family would not have approved of. I politely declined their request, and their whole personality changed after that.

    They got jealous whenever I was talking with my other friends. They started to send me aggressive messages, and started to spread rumours about me, rumours which were not believed due to my good standing with everyone, lack of evidence, and also because of how bizarre they were. I even had people come up to me and tell me, "Elaine, they're making up stuff about you, what's going on?"I believe they may have gotten expelled because a few days later they stopped showing up to school.

    I think with time it'll get better, but I'm going to be at least a little suspicious of people. Time will tell.

  • Me! I'm new to social media in general, decided to engage with it earlier this year by looking up lists of social media sites and then joined the ones I could find that I vibed with!

  • If you had an imaginary friend, what did they look like? How did they act?

    Jump

  • A blue Pikmin named Lure who would follow me around everywhere hahaha

  • What is your Brown M&M?

  • Including links to progress pictures and files associated with my drawings on my Internet Archive profile in the description. Formerly I used Imgur to post progress pictures, but migrated to Internet Archive after I learned that Imgur implemented an expiration policy. When people in the comments accuse my work of being AI-generated, it shows that people aren't reading the description.

  • What was/is the most annoying thing about Windows when you were/are using it?

    Jump

  • My computer installing an update and restarting because I was away from my desk. I won't settle for any other OS though since Paint Tool SAI only runs on Windows.

    What are your favorite ambient spaces in the video games you've played that you really like and would enjoy in real life?

    Jump

  • I love the Akkala region from Breath Of The Wild/Tears Of The Kingdom!

  • What are some valid criticisms of Lemmy do you hear from people who tried out the platform?

    Jump

  • That it's not well known.

  • What is your favorite color and why

    Jump

  • Teal and turquoise, I think because it evokes imagery of my very early childhood where I'd be on vacation and swimming in seas that looked like shimmering gems, with water so clear that it looks as though you're flying. Fun little fact, I've never had to be trained on how to swim, I just instinctually have been able to do so for as long as me and my parents can remember.

  • What's the greatest extent (as in the most amount of time) to which you've eaten something past its expiration date with the food still being enjoyable?

    Jump

  • I've eaten pasta from a sealed, unopened bag that was 4 years past the date. The only difference I noticed was a few pieces breaking apart after cooking and it maybe cooked a tad faster.

  • What are your hobbies?

    Jump

  • Drawing, videogames, and swimming.

  • Have you ever made a strategic play in a game so good it made you feel kindof bad?

    Jump

  • I've played Pikmin 1 so much that my current record is beating the game in 7 in-game days. I feel kind of bad about it since there's so many ways I've played that game that it feels like I've achieved a score I can't possibly top.

    What's the most relaxing sound or sound effect to you?

    Jump

  • It's a tie between the sound of heavy rain at night and that strange silentness you hear when it's snowing heavily, the kind that you "hear" even inside the house which makes you want to go and check if it's snowing!
