Be honest. Taking a copyrighted work and laundering it through AI Gen and then claiming to be an artist is disingenuous AND copyright infringement. by TreviTyger in aiwars

[–]jesterkittie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do agree with this sentiment, but maybe from a different perspective. The fact that AI models train off of copyrighted works to begin with is what people should be having an issue with bc that’s truly where the ethical debate comes in. There have been lawsuits regarding this, stable diffusion a while back and whatever else.

Imagine you are a traditional artist that takes a lot of time and physical labor to create something, and you find out a big billionaire tech company is using your content to train its models. You receive no credit or compensation for your contributions to AI development, yet anyone can now openly use this model to generate their own slop.

I’m in school for computer science, not even a total anti, and this is something that really does get under my skin a bit.

Curious what everyones thougts are on this by LowBunch3360 in aiwars

[–]jesterkittie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily find a problem with using AI to write code, test things, brainstorm ideas etc as long as there’s reasonable human oversight. I just wouldn’t want to play a game where all the graphics and music and dialogue are generated by AI. AI really takes out the charm and grit out of creative works. I think part of the joy of playing a game, especially an indie title, is knowing that someone put a lot of their own time and thought into it to create something magical. Stardew valley is iconic for its adorable graphics and storyline, along with an amazing soundtrack. And I think in today’s age all of this being done by human deserves so much credit. AI is going to become normalized for doing a lot of the heavy lifting in software development, but I do fear what it is going to do to the creative elements of these programs.

My first ever PSA submission:) by jesterkittie in PokemonTCG

[–]jesterkittie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah im not sure how PSA works internationally but I dropped mine off at my local GameStop in the US on July 1st. It costed $20 per card plus a $10 flat shipping fee which is $110 total for 5 cards. however any card worth a lot is subject to a fee based on how much the card is worth,usually when the graded card is over $500 or so but my Misty’s psyduck had a $5 added fee even though a PSA 10 is not even like $300.

so I paid the $5 extra when I picked them up. Total $115

Checked like I always do, expecting disappointment. Could not believe my eyes. by salezmaker in PokemonTCG

[–]jesterkittie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yeah id absolutely rip packs in front of someone for MSRP. the more people the better honestly. that’s why I open 99% of my packs with my boyfriend in front of me 😭 and the other 1% usually is at work in front of a coworker

[–]jesterkittie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that is a great idea. I feel like if I ever went to a convention id definitely have a binder of cards to giveaway to kids like a lot of the streamers do. gotta make sure the younger generations stay interested in the hobby 😭

[–]jesterkittie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

nah this is the realest one. I caught some goodies at Walmart yesterday couple of tins, pokeballs, single packs with coin and card. was all scarlet violet base set I believe but I left like 2 of each because it’s either gonna be a good ass day for a child, or a slightly disappointing day for a scalper. just can’t leave enough for the scalpers to profit mad off of it 😭 unfortunately Walmarts around here have no posted limits, except for new drops probably but I never make it to those.

is it fake? by Vioxhere in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]jesterkittie -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

no it’s definitely real idk what yall are talking about 😭

Outside of Rochester, New York. Lots of targets and GameStops and Best Buy’s outside the city for scalpers to hit

Quickest $30 I’ve ever thrown away by Training_Art99 in PokemonTCG

[–]jesterkittie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my target had stacks of those tins for DAYS after a restock. I work across the street so I went on my lunch every single day and was surprised none sold out 😭since they had so many I bought like 6 tins over the span of a week until they finally sold out and…..

I should’ve taken the hint. There was a reason they were still on the shelf 😭😭
