The real problem are not the faggots posting AI art as if they had painstakingly painted it by hand. Those are kids, idiots, and/or scammers. When it happens just point it out, ridicule them, flag them on the platforms if they violated terms, and move on.
The REAL problem are the multi-GB tensor data files or "models" that this technology is based on. They constitute a new problem in society, because there is no way to know exactly what went into them, nor what will come out given the right triggers. They are in practically huge black boxes.
To make an extreme example, there might be kiddie pr0n and other extremely questionable stuff in the models you are using to generate pictures, and you'll never know until one day it either comes out while you're using it in public, or it influences your works in subtle ways. More mundanely, there are in fact millions of pieces of other people's real art stored into the model, albeit in a profundity processed way. That's what the computer is using to make "new" art for you. That's how it works. That's what the multi-GB data files are for.
How will we collectively address this topic, not just in art and music, but in all applications of artificial neural networks, from autonomous driving to "AI" assistants to decision-makers, will be one of the hottest debates of the 21st century (unless we kill each other first.)
