"Generative AI, like ChatGPT, would have to comply with transparency requirements:
...
Publishing summaries of copyrighted data used for training

... This includes AI systems that generate or manipulate image, audio or video content, for example deepfakes."

...

a good first start - I'm hope they consider:

how can those offering ai know what images were used when the systems don't provide that info & how would it be saved &H displayed? besides working thru agencies, artists offer their work on independent website's & POD sites such as FAA

This is not a rule for microstock sites offering AI images for sale, this is a rule for companies that develope AI. They, so sites like ChatGTP or Midjourney or stable difusion would have to show which images they used to train their AI.

or Adobe firefly which is an ai art generator too... or maybe Adobe photoshop where Adobe Unveils Future of Creative Cloud With Generative AI as a Creative Co-Pilot in Photoshop.

Yes, if that rule came into effect, Adobe Firefly would have to disclose all material that was used to train the AI - But they are already doing that by saying it was tarined with "their" images in their database.

Newspaper in Germany cutting 20% of Jobs because of AI

This case isn't new - about the lawyers who used ChatGPT to do research for a brief and didn't check what it returned (beyond asking ChatGPT if the results were accurate - it said "yes"). The cases were all made up (you can read more about the details elsewhere) and the lawyer faced a disciplinary hearing. A different lawyer in Colorado had to withdraw a motion as he'd done the same thing but checked after hearing about the other case.

https://abovethelaw.com/2023/06/lawyer-figures-out-chatgpt-made-up-fake-cases-in-his-brief-on-day-of-hearing/
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jun/03/lawyer-chatgpt-research-avianca-statement-ai-risk-openai-deepmind

For any newspaper planning to use AI to help with stories, how will they "save time" on research and writing unless they don't bother checking to see if their ChatGPT (or similar) has made the whole thing up? And who would bother to read work from any media outlet where they haven't bothered to try and verify what they're writing?

A Texas judge requires lawyers to disclose if AI was used and "... to certify that they did not use generative AI, or if they did, a human verified the accuracy of their filings."

This story shows how much extra work is generated when people try to follow up on made-up information (in this case a newspaper article that was never published because AI made it up). It's only a time saver if you don't care about accuracy

Yes this point will be absolutely THE point in the next future: it's better (translate: it's faster) to do your job by yourself (news article, images, research... anything), or it's better (translate faster) to let AI do the job... and then check it for errors?
It's all about the time, that is one of our precious thing. Probably the most precious.

About the accuracy... of a text, a photo, or anything else, how deep it should be is a human choice, not AI choice. Your examples in other threads of how low accuracy there is in many AI generated images is the answer. Lot of people think that accuracy is not necessary, because AI save a lot of time.
Putting accuracy in AI generated images take hours of work, it's absolutely not easy at all.
So, in the end, in our microstock images world, what we're asking (for example to Adobe, but it's the same for others) is to put same accuracy (translate: more time) in review images.

In few month AI engines, in my opinion, are reaching the point; humans are starting to ask themselves the weight of accuracy; and the critical thinking; and this is really a good way to use the AI

"Adobe wants to help language-based AI paint a better picture. The company filed a patent application for what it calls a “visually guided” machine learning language model. Adobe’s system aims to help language-based machine learning models overcome the “limited visual intuition” they have trying to visibly comprehend what’s represented in text. "

Especially would be good for Dall-e when it tends to cut off heads and feet! Also lets say you have an image you like, and it's square, then zoom out and you have something that can be cropped?

Sorry, I'm still not paying for this, and it seems that the better the systems get, the more that human "artists" will become unnecessary.

How much do you want to work, for a dime?

Compared to real photography, ai can save a lot of time and production costs.

And my photos are being sold between 1 cent to 3 dollars, with Adobe having an average around 85 cents.

But the quality for what I do is too low on ai, so I continue to take photos and use ai for normal illustrations with watercolor or painting style that can expand what Imoffer in a genre, in my case christmas greeting cards. They will not sell in high volume, but every sale will be an additional sale.

I get regular customers for my work, I am sure thex will enjoy picking up something else while they look around my port.

I don‘t really see the advantage in using ai for „photography“.

Perhaps if I want to do a series about exploring Mars or climbing a high mountain.

For normal situations photos are faster, you get exactly what you want and you can do video as well.

Article with results of a recent poll to find out what people are using, have heard of, are worried about or expect to happen in the future

"To find out what people really think about AI and what they want from it, The Verge teamed up with Vox Media’s Insights and Research team and the research consultancy firm The Circus to poll more than 2,000 US adults on their thoughts, feelings, and fears about AI. The results tell the story of an emerging, uncertain, and exciting technology — where many have yet to use it, many are fearful of its potential, and many still have great hopes for what it could someday do for them."

"Unfortunately, Secret Invasion’s AI credits are exactly what we should expect from Marvel"

https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/27/23770133/secret-invasion-ai-credits-marvel

"Soon after Secret Invasion’s first episode debuted, executive producer Ali Salim confirmed to Polygon that visual effects company Method Studios had used AI tools to help generate the credits, calling the approach “explorative and inevitable.” As that glib use of “inevitable” might indicate, Marvel appeared to be unprepared for the blowback the news created — particularly at a time when artists have been voicing their concerns about the proliferation of AI tools — and seemed not to have considered how its use of the technology might be seen by some as a sign of things to come."

A good definition article about synthography

https://proaiartgallery.com/blogs/news/what-is-synthography

Jo Ann Snover · « **Reply #146 on:** July 03, 2023, 14:38 »

That overview conveniently omits any mention of the training of the models that are now generating images. Without our images as source input for training, none of this would exist - the article makes it sound as if it the software could create images on its own: "...synthography synthesizes images based on words and ideas, creating pictures depicting literally everything one can imagine".

Without the training material to associate those words and ideas with imagery, there'd only be the prompter's imagination and blankness. A little honesty about the process would go a long way (not as far as getting paid for the wholesale use of a web's worth of words, images, etc., but a long way)

cobalt · « **Reply #147 on:** July 03, 2023, 15:23 »

I noticed that, but I think when it comes to just working with ai as a new medium it is a useful article.

The legal stuff will get sorted out in the next three years, ethically trained ais wil rise to the top, because companies cannot take the legal risks.

But any creative process now gets to use ai assistance. And it will change how we work.

This is about music - grammy eligibility for music with some AI-generated parts - but the same issues will be raised for content in stock agencies.
