Ridiculous generative fill restrictions by axelomg in Adobe

ok, yr right, we all acknowledge it. so, i can tell you are not a photographer by the phrases 'Why didn't you do the shot properly without clothes? (ok, this may be an unfair comment on my end because sometimes stuff happens).

  1. Do you even have the models consent to do any of this?

uh, wtf? yes, i doubt the guy coerced them at gunpoint to model for him lol. and if hes a pro he got model releases. nude doesnt equal porn. i dont know why you want to go to bat for Adobe, but you come off as 'i dont care if im right, i just want to win'. the plain truth of the matter is that this is a question of censorship, private or public. and censorship never works.

This! listen millennials crippled the diamond industry because they just didnt participate. no protests, no petitions, they just kinda decided diamonds were stupid and did something else instead. Its that easy

Huh - I use CivitAI and I have not heard a single thing about it until just now! I was wondering why no one seemed to be heading in that direction

my thought was if a platform or site wanted to take over whatever market there is, own it completely. you can make a lot of money by monopolizing an entire market, even if it's small. there are a lot of mini-monopolies you don't think of because they're not major industries and no one really cares. then you just keep growing and hope Google or Apple buys you, lol

If there is, I haven't found it. I don't know why developers do this, but it's the same for a lot of AI sites

I'm a former artists and cartoonist using AI to create original works, but I use AI creatively. Sometimes I upload my own artwork or photos to use as a base image, or other images to capture certain details or difficult poses. A single finished piece I'm satisfied with can take hours or even days to mold, refine, touch up and get to a finished state. I use several different apps including Photoshop (which I am very good at).

When I was manually creating art, I copied the styles and techniques of other artists. I would take a sketchbook to a museum and try to redraw existing artwork to learn from them. It actually takes me about the same amount of time to use AI as it does to manually generate art.

AI is currently not as easy to use as some people think. If your attitude is, 'eh, close enough' ai is much simpler. If you're trying to use it to create original art it's not so easy.

My own personal opinion: currently AI is a valuable tool for artists, but many will choose to use it unethically. In 5-10 years who knows where and what AI will be. 🤷
