And I should clarify. I know the legal precedent and the legally precedent can eat a bag of dicks. These AI startups are CLEARLY violating fair use by being for profit operations that seek to compete with musicians with machines that utilize their own work.
Like this is NOT the fucking own you think it is. This is already the case with the most accessible and well known AI models. These tech companies are PROFITING OFF OUR ART.
Stop pretending your "defending" anyone but corporations from other corporations.
Also, I don't know if you KNOW this but people are ALREADY paying Adobe 200 dollars a month for Gen AI tech. Firefly is a part of CC and it's incorporated into Photos hop and Illustrator.
It's actually about the same price as Midjourney.
Again.. this was NOT the own you thought it was.
I've got mixed feelings on the art here but I think the changes work... this does mean making a new model tho which... damn do I NOT want to do that. And it's not like I can pay someone else too lol
