“If you have been following the online discussion over these new image generators, you probably noticed that I haven’t demonstrated their most viral use - doing style transfer, where people ask AI to convert photos into images that look like they were made for the Simpsons or by Studio Ghibli. These sorts of application highlight all of the complexities of using AI for art: Is it okay to reproduce the hard-won style of other artists using AI? Who owns the resulting art? Who profits from it? Which artists are in the training data for AI, and what is the legal and ethical status of using copyrighted work for training? These were important questions before multimodal AI, but now developing answers to them is increasingly urgent.“
