Re: BUT IS IT ART?
now it my turn to be with Chris
It's a game changer - the old 'good artists copy, great artists steal' with a new twist, and I don't think you can hold back the tide
Anyone can look at a painting and emulate the style, adding their own 'flair'. Anyone can read Mr King's novels and write about a possessed car. As long as they don't claim to be that actual someone, then that's acceptable. Why is AI any different? [cf:] The problem that will need addressing in the near future is precisely replicating existing works
a question of degree... and we may have to accept that, up to a point, we have left [strict] copyright behind; in the same way that you can legitimately manipulate a person's image as long as you do not defame them, you can now do the same to their creations as long as you don't replicate
that is what is meant here by 'fair usage' - sampling has been part of commercial music for quite some time; this is sampling on a grand scale...
