Did you know that Jingna Zhang, the Singaporean photographer/artist who famously won a court case against someone who plagiarised her work, has founded an anti-AI-scraping art and portfolio platform and social media called Cara?
https://cara.app/

I didn't! But I love that this is happening, and gaining attention. So if you're still on DeviantArt (the gen-AI art generator platform) it's time to move on 😎

Hey #AskFedi, got another one for you.

I've been looking for alternative frontends for sites. The Pix-Ez Viewer works great for Pixiv, Squacker for Twitter, New Pipe for YouTube, but I have other sites I'd like these for. Basically, smaller footprints and no ads.

What about #Tumblr ? I'd like one for multiple accounts that doesn't show ads. Or #BDSMLR for that matter. Something where the site isn't broken. :blobPikaFail:

Art sites like #DeviantArt, #NewGrounds, #FurAffinity, etc. would be nice too.

#Foss and #fDroid are preferred, but at this point I'd love a company that isn't actively shitty.

I've tried using a #PWA for many of these sites, and usually it's okay, but something better would be good.

I don't normally name and shame, but I'm so sure this is an automated spam account I'm going to share it:

deviantart.com/xrebelyellx/gal

It would be interesting to know what the history of it is, because the account is old, and presumably was a real person at some point. Original account owner gone to the dark side? Sold? Hacked?

As people who follow what I’ve had to say on AI “Art”, I'm more ambiguous on it than most Mastodonians, but having spent a bit of time on #DeviantArt with the filter off, oh my!

It's pretty foolish to let your platform be spammed like that, some people are auto-uploading dozens a day. I think even the prompting is automated. And it's just so… boring . Barely get any engagement anyhow.

#Introduccion (me temo que va a ser largo)

Bienvenide a mi «mastocuenta» aquí en la instancia de tkz.one (sí, me invento palabras como «mastocuenta»)

Mi nombre es Ismael y en este extenso (espero que no mucho) toot, que voy a dejar fijo, procederé a contarte sobre mí, lo que no pude poner en la biografía XD.

Y lo voy a hacer mencionando aquellas facetas mías más relevantes, lo demás quedará en descubrirlo ustedes bajo su propio riesgo XD

Primero, soy #diseñadorgrafico en constante desarrollo y crecimiento, a veces eso también hace que por momentos sea #artista y #fotografo. Es la carrera que decidí estudiar y la que trato de ejercer, a veces con mayor y a veces con menor éxito. Lamentablemente nunca fui muy ordenado así que todos mis trabajos están como desperdigados por varios sitios así que los compartiré a continuación para que los visiten a su gusto y piachere (¿Así se escribe?)

#LinkedIn (se supone que es mi perfil profesional): linkedin.com/in/ismael-fernand

#Metapixl (publico fotografías que saco como aficionado): metapixl.com/isukun

#DeviantArt (es una cuenta vieja, de las primeras que usé para subir mis trabajos): deviantart.com/isukun

Bueno creo que con eso termino con aquella parte mía que tiene que ver con lo #visual, con el #diseñografico y con las #artesvisuales con las que se puede conectar.

Se me hace que mi próxima faceta la pongo en un toot que responde a éste.

So, I'll likely do a longer write up on this, but after a few years of largely not trying to sell #art due to not completing a lot of works or otherwise not tending to things, I had intended to start up the old lines, and I fine them either broken (#RedBubble), shut down (#DeviantArt Prints) or doing just squirt-of-piss dumb cash grabs (all of the above, plus #Society6).

Everyone wants art, very few want to make actual artists lives remotely worth the effort.

Maybe #etsy?

Andersen v. Stability AI Ltd (3:23-cv-00201) District Court, N.D. California

tl;dr Artists sue #DeviantArt, #StabilityAI, and #Midjourney over purported #copyright violations inflicted by #StableDiffusion #AI and related tools.

mathstodon.xyz/@hewittlaw@mast

The original complaint (¶¶ 80-81) has a nice cartoon of stable diffusion as a kind of interpolation, but since the cartoon uses a 2-D "space of all images" with but two images, basing your lawsuit on such a cartoon seems a bit naive and misleading.

The cartoon came from the left part of Figure 8 in arxiv.org/abs/2006.11239 . It is not very large. Blink and you would miss it. But it lacks the context of what the computer knows, which is the discovered relations between images.

¶ 76 links to that paper but puts the date as Dec 2020 when there are actually two similar preprints of the paper by Jonathan Ho, Ajay Jain, and Pieter Abbeel [v2] dated 2020-12-16 and [v1] dated 2020-06-19. The published version is in Neural Information Processing Systems, 2020. papers.nips.cc/paper/2020/hash

The plaintiffs' lawyers have arranged for a late January media blitz of misinformation about the technology with a companion website that boosts the plaintiffs' story: stablediffusionlitigation.com/

But there is what reads to me as a more mathematically-informed view suggesting that plaintiffs are using only reasoning by analogy with little foundation in what the computer is doing: stablediffusionfrivolous.com/

There is no database of images. The rare toy example of overfitting ( arxiv.org/abs/2301.13188 ) does not mean an example of near-duplication proves that StableDiffusion is some form of lossy image compression.

MastodonCasey Hewitt (@hewittlaw@mastodon.social)Imagine you're just minding your own business filing your frivolous shakedown copyright cases and MARK LEMLEY files an appearance for the defense, do you just melt into the floor right there?

Andersen v. Stability AI Ltd (3:23-cv-00201) District Court, N.D. California

#DeviantArt, #StabilityAI, and #Midjourney are expected to reply (by which I expect motions to dismiss) on April 18 to this proposed #ClassActionLawsuit #lawsuit over #AI tools like #StableDiffusion violated #copyright in the scraping of images or the generation of new images.

Stability AI's UK parent, Stability AI, Ltd. which is the lead defendant in the case caption, doesn't have filings indicating that they have been served or have waived service yet.

To my mind, the act of web scraping itself seems harmless as it is literally necessary for the operation of libraries and search engines.

Generating images in the style of artist X seems beyond the realm of copyright law. And the claim that generated images are collages created in violation of copyright seems to be deficient in the facts. Specifically, nothing that StabilityAI does seems to be akin to maintaining a library of art and creating collages from it.

There seems to be a possible copyright issue with hypothetical image replication, but not only is that an unwanted behavior, but it has also been found to be exacerbated by unintentional overtraining on multiple copies of an image in the web-scraped inputs. "That's a [rarely seen] bug, not a feature." seems like a defense to this layman #IANAL. That it's rare and hard to reproduce for some of the generative AI products hurts the case for a class action where each plaintiff needs to be in basically the same boat.

Also, will 47 U.S. Code § 230(c)(1) immunize online generative AI products for outputs they produce at the prompting of information from a third-party user?
