bruh human beings harvest each other's creativity. u think human painters aren't basically just building on top of what other people have done? cant believe humans have the *audacity* to go charge for work they made built on the shoulders of a human civilization's worth of art

Both GitHub’s CoPilot and DALL·E are pointing out how exploitative AI is of human creativity. People’s source code and art is feed into these machines then turned into a paid service without these original creators even agreeing to this let alone getting compensated. twitter.com/dananthonykell…

Dall-E and CoPilot are tools created with a very clear motive of eliminating the value of certain sorts of human labor. The questions become, do we trust that progress for the sake of labor elimination is a) good for society & b) made with good intent?

This is true of everything, obviously. And using collective human knowledge and work for personal profit is generally acceptable. But it's also why the self-made billionaire doesn't exist and extreme wealth gaps should be corrected.

The problem is industrial scale harvesting. A person creating an artwork inspired by others can make the original authors feel appreciated. A machine scanning and creating thousands of derivative works basically turn artists into unpaid slaves.
