    I just find it rich that most of these memes are just made with a website that adds captions… “Hurr durr my 5 clicks are more valid than your 5 clicks”

    Art is the idea and its expression. Bunch of pretentious snobs.

      I do imagine in a world of verifiably ethical, open source, local software, the choice to click five times in one tool or another would be viewed all but equally.

      “Ethical” being probably the most important descriptor there. A local open source tool that only siphoned up public domain art from consenting artists? Why would that be a big deal?

      Meanwhile if you hear that spirited away guy say he hates AI and then you see his art imitated by it, that’s certainly going to rub many folks the wrong way.

        You’re a moron. First off, his name is Miazaki, and secondly, that quote is taken out of context. Do you just believe whatever you’re told to believe with no research? Looks like it.

        And AI ethics? Are you fucking serious? Sure, the world is filled with slave labor and corruption and human trafficking and you’re over here defending copyright. The most capitalistic, corporate position you can take.

        If you couldn’t copy someone else’s art style, 99% of Deviant Art wouldn’t even exist. Ffs, painting and sculpture are broken into various periods based on how everything was a certain vibe. Where do you think Surrealism, realism, cubism and other terms come from?

        Hell, this meme was stolen from Fox/Seth MacFarlane. Did OP get permission to steal someone else’s art and plaster text on it? Literally the same ethics you claim to defend.

        These posts really just come across as a bunch of bitter Art Institute graduates who can’t do shit with their “degree”.

          Ironically, if you look at today’s top ‘memes’ in this community you’ll see that they’re all essentially a picture on a white background with text added to the top. Zero effort, zero creativity. Just find a picture, copy paste it into ms paint and put text above it (not even on the picture itself).

          you’re over here defending copyright. The most capitalistic, corporate position you can take.

          100%

          A lot of people on Lemmy will self identify as being left of center and then run around promoting the idea that people can own ideas in perpetuity. Which is very much a right wing authoritarian idea.
