I’m normally (mostly) against generative AI (I’m mostly okay with it if it’s not being used commercially, but you should still pay artists if you have the means), but I’m actually kinda into this. I love how it’s shitty but photorealistic at the same time.

“It wasn’t too long ago that StableDiffusion was competing with Midjourney, now it just looks like a joke in comparison. At least our datasets are safe and ethical!” wrote one Reddit user.
Sure buddy. Listen, using other people’s work doesn’t become ethical just because you’re not selling the training or dataset. That doesn’t mean it’s unethical either, but imo it falls into a ethical grey area where the way you use it determines whether or not it’s ethical.
