[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 9240984, member: 42856"] I meant, trained on public domain or create common license allowing training, thus avoiding any suspicion of copyright infringement, or the hyperbolic term of theft. Civitai has many open source models, but there is no guarantee they weren't trained on data scraped over the Internet. We might be finally reaching an optimal point: 1. Ethical models are starting to get common enough and powerful enough to allow SOTA generation. 2. The quality of the result is deemed unfit for professional use by real artists, so they are not risking yet to lose their job since the quality of their art is superior to the defective AI art that can't reliably maintain consistency, and have residual problems with hands and face, and vanishing point. So, the main negatives are avoided, while 3. Casual person who is happy with "good enough" images for casual use gets increased access to art (character sheet, illustrating your campaign journal, creating props, colouring old photos, restoring an image of your passed-away grandma...) So they get a net positive for society, with happiness of some increased without decreasing it for anyone. It might change once AI art becomes equal in level or superior to human-made art, but we're not there yet. If and when we are, jobs being replaced by AI will be a thing that will need to receive the appropriate treatment from the P-word realm. [/QUOTE]
