AI Pictures People from Each US State

[Mik]

Now do them all in blackface. It couldn't possibly be more demeaning.

You're only saying that because you don't live in Rhode Island

[Mik]

I call BS. I've met you.

Ah, but that was when I lived in Massachusetts!

It's horseshit.

You got a beef with horseshit I guess.

I do. These are fun toys for shallow people.

[Mik]

Agreed.

I wonder why the Ohio fan's shirt said "REDE" instead of "REDS"

Graphic generative AI still very much sucks at text.

I think there is also something with copyright and use of actual brand names.

But there's not with stealing thousands of other images and illustrations to make the AI images?

Much easier to prove with a copyrighted name

Not by much. Artists who have expressly denied AI access to their images are still getting ripped off.

Right, but if they generated a poster featuring Coca Cola with the logo, they’re more likely to be successfully sued than if they rip off an artist who might struggle to pay for the lawsuit and may also have a less clear cut case

Yeah, that's definitely true.

Even so, though, there are logo-making AI platforms now that do pretty much just that: feed it some existing logos, have it spit out a ripped off facsimile in about 8 seconds. You can get it in SVGs, too.

But it's fun! Hahah it's fun ripping people off and destroying livelihoods!

[Horace]

It's sort of ironic that artists are the first casualties of AI.

You could argue that that’s what some marketing weasels have been doing for decades.

And I’m not trying to defend the AI, however I think what’s coming is mostly inevitable

I'd say entirely inevitable.

The most painful conversations will be around how we reconcile capitalism, with an economy that no longer requires much in the way of input from the masses, to satisfy the profit motive.
