Just do your best.
Just do your best.
I loved it and didn’t finish it either, only I don’t even have an excuse. Maybe I just got stuck.
You paid your own money for every single copyright work you’ve ever seen in your life?
I never claimed this distinction, and I don’t think it’s a meaningful point.
I’m saying that I pay for art. These companies don’t, but more to the point, they seek to undermine their source once they’ve extracted all the training data they need. I’d go so far as to say it’s in poor taste to use free art, because it should be patently obvious that most artists putting out free art, did not anticipate its use by devices that let you bypass artists entirely.
There’s an alternate way that this could have all gone down: after some internal testing, we could have simply asked artists to volunteer their work for the project of training. There are enough people excited about the tech that this would have been plenty! It just wouldn’t have let companies rush for market share, and hope the business utility would gloss over any ethical qualms in the aftermath.
I thought this about myself and then I watch some old shit like Seven Samurai and I am sitting up straight eyes wide taking it all in.
But yeah, there’s no law against just not liking any of it.
1 screen it, or try to be ok missing things.
Yeah I paid for em too
I see you also married someone from a fairie tale kingdom. Some people just seem to have a certain animal magnetism, ye
I’m just saying there are legitimate questions here and the people deserve to know the truth
There is enough freely licensed content to make whatever you want. I have no trouble at all making websites and comic books and video games using freely licensed content.
First time with one of these? They are pretty cool, yeah
Is this a Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell reference? https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jonathan_Strange_and_Mr._Norrell
Why not just use free use content? There’s plenty of it. More than ever before in human history
Pretty accurate to the story, now that I actually read it.
Haha yeah, I remember we disagreed on something, but now I can’t remember what. Can’t have been too fundamental, anyway – see you around!
Oh I see it now. I’m just not used to them ever growing out before getting chipped or ruined somehow
I think most people see these illustrations online these days
That sounds very healthy.
Oh hey sugar_in_your_tea - I’m starting to recognize you from a couple of other comment threads in this community :)
I was thinking illustrator, like those who draw the often semi abstract drawing what go with magazine articles.
A hundred percent, but the fact remains that journalists have a very hard time supporting themselves in their profession. A job that is critical (when done well) to an informed public.
It must be depressing knowing you could just take a TypeScript React bootcamp and probably double salary in a year. Like, journos have an important job. It’s just not lucrative, despite its value to people/society.
