I’ve already heard of this - mainly thanks to the nuclear backlash it (and basically anything related to AI) is getting. Pulling out a particular highlight, here’s Ashley Lynch tearing the whole thing a new one:
Stuff like this is perfect because it shows how utterly devoid of creativity genAI evangelists are. Great, you recreated a photo that already exists in a drawing style that only has currency because of who you’re stealing it from giving the world something with absolutely no value or meaning. I can’t tell you how excited I am that we’re literally burning the Earth up for this garbage.
Every genAI techbro needs to be sent to the Hague to stand trial for crimes against humanity with how they’ve traded our future for this absolute bullshit. Straight up capital punishment for every one of these fucking losers responsible for cursing us with this garbage. I have zero chill on this issue anymore. They represent the end of humanity.
Value, for some, is purely an emotional state.
grind for a decade [trying to help make superintelligence to cure cancer] OR [whatever]
I have spent the last decade doing either:
- riding a flying pig to frozen hell and back
or
- something.
I’m just amazed they take the artstyle but nothing of the magical whimsy and wonder Studio Ghibli movies have and call it the same. A cartoon picture of Joe Rogan doesn’t come close to anything from Studio Ghibli. Talking about missing the point. It is almost enough to start believing in souls.
In terms of creativity, this seems almost on par with the ability to convert photos to the style of, say, impressionist paintings or pop art, which has been available in standard photo editing software for many years. These were also impressive gimmicks, but of very limited practical value.
Sue OpenAI for copyright infringement right now
looks like ghibli has been sending out C&Ds, so there’s a start
Would that work?
Sending C&D to the people using the AI while it’s being hosted by OpenAI feels similar to sending a C&D to viewers who watch a copyrighted video on YouTube instead of the channel who uploaded it.
As long as it’s hosted on the platform, C&Ding users of said platform feels like a game of whack-a-mole

ianal so I’m not really gonna speculate as to effectiveness, impact, or relevance of that. might be the thing by itself, might be opening of a broader set of actions.
legal process is convoluted, lawyers are expensive, lots of entities try “as little” as possible before scaling up - why bother spending a lot when you can spend a little
I’ll be so happy when I can read AI-related news again without having to hear about that OpenAI guy.
I need to put the threads together, but as far as I can tell OpenAI is singlehandedly responsible for the present bubble
