If courts continue to affirm that ML-generated content is not eligible for copyright protection we're going to see that AI winter sooner than people think

you can say "chimoora" instead of "cow of tailed snake" if you want. its a good pun.

they/them/moo where "moo" stands in for "you" or where it's funny, like "how are moo today, Lupi?" or "dancing with mooself"

in reply to @DecayWTF's post:
Also as the general public realizes, at a slower rate than enthusiasts, that ML output on average is actually shit
Things like the "Reversal Curse" will definitely contribute to that because people who have been oversold on generative AI and don't really understand it are gonna take "it knows B then A but it can't tell me A then B??" even harder than people who do...
Filing off the serial numbers of art really do be like that.
Although I find it mildly amusing that AI media sucks so hard that even the things it could technically be useful for in my fields (creating tons of meaningless jrpg backgrounds and placeholders for super low budget indie games and mods) are better served by having no placeholder media or algorithmically altering stock photos.
I actually tried to make AI placeholders for a Cultist Simulator mod back before AI got super-techbro-y but it took just as much effort as kitbashing or random stock media would. That one didn't have as many ethical issues because the training data was the game's primary artwork and it was only going to go back into the game, so it was clear who made the original artwork and it was being kept in their space. I had also intended them to be placeholders but I just ended up living with '?' as everything's sprite and then commissioning someone without intermediary steps.
The only novel thing I've seen the snake oil help with is just 'this furry does not exist' to discourage people using other people's sonas and instead communally distributing the "I don't have a sona" awkwardness art borrowing phase a lot of people go through.
New non-artist furries tend to just pick someone else's oc/sona and use that for a bit, and thus crappy AI media has the same labor quandaries without having the "using someone else's face" ones. Both usually get swapped out after the onboarding process tho.
