Art is a form of expression for people…it doesn’t matter how long it took what matters is that they wanted to share something with others that they thought of. This is their expression of that thought. The model isn’t going anywhere and allowing them to be more efficient in their expression by using a tool to it quicker doesn’t diminish that no matter what. You want to be mad at scummy companies for how they trained the models and them trying to remove labor from the mix so they can become massive monopolies all while fucking over the planet and increasing the wealth gap. Go right ahead that is completely valid, but shutting down other people’s forms of expression for using a tool is bullshit gatekeeping that does nothing constructive.
Parts of it were, but parts were hand drawn, all of the text was put in manually with the comic neue font, and the whole thing was assembled piece by piece in gimp.
That is a better way of putting it, but also requires someone trying to pass off the image as their own. So it wouldn’t really be plagarism if you just said it was a generated image off the bat imo.
In the context of the OP I don’t think it’s plagiarism though since only some of the images is generated
They did make the comic. They might not’ve made the images, but they are the ones that came up with the idea and put it together. It’s an expression from their mind, and therefore them watermarking it is a nonissue.
It doesn’t just seem scummy, it is scummy to gatekeep art.
Whats scummy is discouraging people from sharing their artistic expressions because your inferiority complex from them using a tool. Art has always been copied and built from other people. How many drawing books teach you to trace existing art to learn? How about photo realistic drawings which are traces from photos? How many works are derivatives from public domain? Yet that all gets to be art…The scumy thing in AI is that corporations use them for profit and aim to remove labor so they can increase their wealth hoarding, not that people can use them to express themselves without needing years of training…
If you know a post you publish on lemmy used AI in its making, i recommend disclosing that so people dont start complaining about the use of AI and downvoting the post
AI generated, look at that keyboard in the first panel
Why does AI use this beige background color?
Maybe it’s trained on scans of old newspaper comics.
Oh no, someone used a tool to express something…this anti people making art with AI is so damn tiring.
What does “expression” have to do with it?
It’'s about someone using models trained for $50K cause 3 extra minutes of poorly drawing stickman too much work.
Inefficiency is what’s annoying us here.

What part is hand drawn? Seems a little scummy to use AI and then put your watermark in the corner of the art you stole…
It’d be half as bad if you weren’t doing this whole watermark thing in my opinion
Generated images aren’t “stolen”, be mad
No, just plagarized.

I missed the part of the comic with the credits/citations.
Citations - Chatgpt ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you, mr. Altman. Thank you for the art.
If I plagiarize part of my paper the whole paper is tainted
This is a meme, sir.
Ok?
You’re saying it’s ok to plagiarize part of something, and I’m saying it’s not, whether it’s a meme or a paper or anything.
AI Slop is AI slop
I’m guessing the text wasn’t AI 🙄

Again people loudly not understanding how AI works.

Like that would stop them.
