99.9% of the art on Pinterest wasn't uploaded by its creator. Most isn't even credited. I'm sure that's why it appeals to OpenAI.

Doctorow's essay (was a public lecture) is probably the best thing on "AI" and where we are and where we ought to try to go that I have yet read. I learned something important in here about copyright as well, and how creatives and authors need to think about all this. Well worth your time.
"AI is the asbestos in the walls of our technological society, stuffed there with wild abandon by a finance sector and tech monopolists run amok. We will be excavating it for a generation or more."
This piece on AI by Cory Doctorow is spectactular.

Everyone hates this shit so much. It’s a bipartisan issue. AI sucks. It’s intrusive. It isn’t magical nor is it changing the world other than in the amount of money being wasted on it. Consumers are increasingly offended by its presence

First things first. Generally speaking, AI models not trained in walled gardens with copyright-free sources are stealing work. Nobody denies this. Using them to make the art for your game comes with an acceptance that you may well be taking someone else's work without crediting them, or paying them.

Most of the AI companies used far more than lawfully acquired copies of books so this could present a major issue going forward. We'll need to see how lawsuits involving scraped material off the internet play out to see how AI companies will fair under copyright law.

Anthropic's AI copyright 'win' is more complicated than it looks
Tech companies are celebrating a major ruling on fair use for AI training, but a closer read shows big legal risks still lay ahead.

In huge news, the UK government was just defeated in the House of Lords for a second time over AI & copyright.
The government had removed amendments to the Data Bill that would require AI companies to disclose their training data. The Lords have now reinserted them.
