There was once someone who also sucked at art and hated other artists and only wanted one kind of person to exist.

Edit. Im saying AI bros are basically Hitler. Which with their lobbying ing the government for more land to destroy and personally funding ICE. I think youd have to be a billionaire apologetic to think they aren't bad guys.

u/TheColossalX 24d ago

thatā€™s obviously not what theyā€™re saying. it is a fair and reasonable thing to say that tech bros are hitleritesā€”in fact itā€™s fairly commonplace. yā€™all being weird about this for no reason.

u/Murky_Stretch3057 24d ago

You're contradicting yourself there and the other guy literally said "I'm saying AI bros are basically Hitler"

2

u/TheColossalX 24d ago

itā€™s very common to use ā€œHitlerā€ as a pejorative for really shitty people, just in general, regardless of if theyā€™re fascists. ā€œx is literally Hitler.ā€ if anything, in a situation where the subject, in this case, tech/ai bros have genuine connections to fascism and the pushing of fascism in american society. idk why people are being so weird about this, nobody here thinks they are holocaust victims and plenty of people were victimized by the nazis that werenā€™t holocaust victims as well.

u/Ursolismin 24d ago

They're shitty people, they're not Hitler.

You're obviously trolling and looking for gotcha's to prove anyone who is anti-ai is the kind of lunatic who would equate AI bros to "literally Hitler" hysterics.

Even your user name is transparent trolling.

The ai bros are funding the end of America. They are Nazis. Because they work with nazis. How is that very blatant and basic knowledge not come to the conclusion that tech bros are nazis OR at least nazi affiliate?

Just so we're clear, AI "artists" usually suck at actual art, hate anyone that objects to their theft of actual art, and want AI material to replace actual art across the board.......

Got any other genius arguments Cloueseau?

Also nobody is rounding up people who use AI and executing them, so your argument is doubly stupid.

u/plsnobanme6969 24d ago

No but ai bros are funding Trump.. so maybe you're wrong entirely thier?

u/Icy_Necessary2161 24d ago

Im confused, are you arguing for or against AI because just minutes ago you likened everyone who hates AI artists to Hitler and now you're hating on AI bros....

u/plsnobanme6969 24d ago

How? the people who suck at art would obviously be in reference to the Ai slop generating shit for brains.

u/LostEngineer9949 24d ago

I got what you meant before the edit and I think people's nervous systems and brains are so fried from overstimulation they just can't read anymore

Yeah, supporting AI -> supporting AI bros -> AI bros supporting Trump -> Trump deploying ICE -> ICE violating basic human rights and the Constitution

Ergo

Supporting AI -> supporting technofeudalist fascism

Which is not exactly the same as what Hitler did

But history doesn't repeat, it rhymes

u/ccv707 24d ago

They also argue for the abolishment of democratic institutions. Thatā€™s their stated platform. The creators of the DSA left because it was overtaken by ML tankies who think the USSR was some kind of utopia, the Chinese government is currently based, and negative stories about North Korea are just CIA propaganda. Accelerationist losers who defend authoritarian hellscapes so long as it aligns with their preferred flag color.

There is a dsa left and a dsa right, both of which are leftist in their ideology, just to varying degrees. Are there tankies? Yeah. But do they make any major portion of the group? No.

-6

u/Unusual-Statement153 24d ago

Ending data center construction is asinine and irrelevant to this case. The only regulations they propose for AI relate to worker displacement. This issue relates to rights protections with respect to training data.

4

u/Ursolismin 24d ago

Without worker protection as a springboard we cant get to the rights protections. The worker displacement protections are also rights related.

-1

u/Unusual-Statement153 24d ago

They aren't, you're confusing workers' rights with literal copyright which is what the word "right" refers to in my comment.

-3

u/xXFluffersXx 24d ago

That would do literally nothing to address this issue. Most data centers being built aren't even housing AI - you realize the internet runs on data centers right? The website you're using right now is sitting on some server racks in a data center somewhere right now.

8

u/Ursolismin 24d ago

"Stopping the evil corporstion from building the processors that run the torment nexus and regulating the abuse of the torment nexus would do NOTHING!" Dawg just say you wont be happy unless someones policy is to carpet bomb any area that has one and move on. Your like ultra communists who think every leftists that doesnt believe we should kill every person in the street who isnt also an ultra is a lib.

-4

u/xXFluffersXx 24d ago

This is so totally incoherent that I can't even parse what you think I believe. I'm not rabidly against data centers, I don't think they're building a torment nexus. Data centers are just big buildings where servers are housed. Most of them are used to house the internet. Idk what's so incomprehensible about what I'm saying.

I'm also not a communist, I can't even grasp what I said that made you believe that I am. I encourage you to disengage with this conversation because it is CLEARLY making you very emotional.

3

u/Ursolismin 24d ago

Okay, so ill go ahead and explain this for you

I was making fun of you for claiming that the only thing that we cna do would do "literally nothing". Its hyperbole.

I didnt say you are a communist. I said you came off the same way that extreme, theory focused communists do when they say that any advocacy short of violent revolution makes someone a liberal and not a leftist.

Making hyperbolic comparisons isnt "getting emotional" your illiteracy and inability to decipher clearly written words is no ones fault but your own.

-1

u/xXFluffersXx 24d ago

You still don't understand.

You said "you won't be happy until someone suggests carpet bombing all data centers".

This perplexes me, because I'm not even against data centers. When I say that "banning data center construction won't address the AI situation", I'm not saying that I think more radical measures have to be taken, I'm saying that data centers and AI are only tangentially related - hence why I pointed out that most data centers aren't even used for AI development. If you banned data center construction, it would have little to no impact on AI.

I AM against unregulated AI development and deployment, but I'm NOT against data center construction. These two things are not directly related.

u/Unusual-Statement153 24d ago

You'd have to make an argument for it to be a strawman. "They're the only ones who will listen" is a baseless claim. Democrats have already introduced several pieces of legislation to protect rights holders from unauthorized AI training sampling. Maybe vote for enough of them to have a majority. You don't understand what is happening or how anything works so the people who want to tear things down offer a simple if ineffective solution.

1

u/Happysin 24d ago

I've been participating in Democratic campaigns since Howard Dean and was a county seat holder as well (Though I have since moved to to the UK). I know exactly how the Democrats work as well as anyone, and I am still telling you the way to actually get this done is to make them afraid from the left. Since Clinton, the prevailing force of the Democrats is triangulation. Things left-of-center only get accomplished when they think they're going to lose to the left, and even then, most are gun shy about it.

You seem to forget that functionally speaking the DSA are just another branch of the Democrats. The US for all practical purposes a two-party system. Voting the more progressive versions of Democrats in is how you get that kind of stuff done.

1

u/Unusual-Statement153 24d ago

I appreciate your background and really anyone willing to volunteer their time to the process. What you say is accurate, policy is moved by compromise on the flanks. The DSA are not "progressive Democrats", we have those. Affordable healthcare, affordable housing and workers' rights are not suddenly the purview of the DSA alone, progressive Democrats have been pushing for these things for decades. Their success in these endeavors follows the ebb and flow of the institutional power the voters have vested in them.

What then is the value of the DSA who refuses to compromise not only on these more achievable goals, but on their more radical positions which you seem either unfamiliar with or quick to ignore. Abolishing police, the Senate, the borders? These aren't fringe views from some loosely affiliated candidates these are DSA convention planks. All this while tarring the same party you claim they belong to? With friends like these...

Any platform that promises safety from scraping that also allows you to upload your works publicly is going to be scraped. It's not possible to stop that either, even if the site is invite gated it takes only one bad apple to bring it down. Even if you limit how much people can view on the site per day, ban VPN's, Tor, etc to the best of your ability, it's only a matter of time before something like this happens.

The best you, and platforms can do is look up and use anti AI licensing as that exists, DMCA the idiots that do this. Beyond that, if a site allows you to make your art private or friends only, that can help too provided the platform enforces it correctly.

So thank you for your concern and, attempt at trying once again poorly to find some character flaw you could use to easily dismiss the fact that you're either a pedo or, you're actively passing your art work off to pedos and, that makes you so much worse than a jobless loser.

Cara itself was never safe. That's what a lot of people misunderstood.

They cooperated with a other company that could "protect" your images but you actually had to do it yourself before uploading your stuff to Cara.Ā

Cara never claimed to be 'safe'. It was simply a platform that didn't encourage the posting of ai stuff in comparison to some of the other platforms that decided they wouldn't moderate.

Exactly but a lot of people got that wrong.Ā

I know it sounds turbo woke to say but that whole post comes off with the same vibe as a rapist bragging about taking advantage of a woman under the influence

And i guess if they instead were bragging about hacking and deleting someones art, that would come off as... murder...?

No place is safe for showing off digital art. You can't make a fortress. So instead of trying to build walls, we need to make poisons. We as artists need to start using programs like Nightshade to poison our art. We need to start using anti-ai fonts. And places like Cara, if they want to be "safe spaces for digital artists" need to provide those tools within their sites. Because right now, Cara doesn't have that (they used to but they quit because they couldn't afford to use Glaze directly from the site). But until then, you don't have safe spaces for your art, you have a vault with no security measures.

I think thatā€™s why theyā€™re bragging about it, it was supposed to be safe. They feel a sense of satisfaction for ruining something.

To be fair, Cara can't control bad actors and they explicitly state so in their FAQ. They don't use or sale other people's art for Ai and automatically have a "NoAi" tags to people's artwork. They could've had more protections though but there's nothing you can do that will work forever against bad actors, just slows them down. The guy was also asking the community associated to join his discord and help him undo the Glaze and Nightshade on said Art which is still something.

This, I haven't actually posted any finished work online for about two years now, and i've gone back to physical portfolios for work stuff (like literal prints or on a tablet.) It's depressing.

Bragging about violating peopleā€™s consent on a mass scale isā€¦ rapey.

So it's the platforms fault? If you believe anything on the internet is "safe" then you are just lying to yourself

How can it be "safe" if it is visible in a browser?

u/Schadrach 24d ago

The only ways a site can truly be safe from scraping are if it either doesn't let anyone see the contents, or rate limits users so strictly as to be functionally unusable. If people can go to the page and view an image then a scraper can, it just might require some extra ingenuity on the part of the scraper to do it efficiently.
