He adds: “As AI continues to advance, there is a risk that it may be able to synthesise images of inappropriate or illegal subjects based on existing content. Chernev admits that during the initial launch of Text 2 Dream, people tried to “generate images of nude children, despite the fact that no such images were present in the training dataset”. But there’s a more insidious danger: the ability to create images that are potentially illegal. This is essentially what AI art is doing.”Ĭhernev says he recognises the “complex ethical considerations surrounding the use of non-public domain images and the potential impact on artists whose work is used in the training of AI tools like ours”. AI doesn’t do the same – it can only copy.” When a human artist does “mimic a style, or pass off a piece of artwork as their own, it is incredibly frowned upon – and in some cases could be seen as copyright infringement. They will never move their hands the way the original artist did. Syed agrees, saying “another human will never look at an image the exact same way the original artist did. It samples everyone’s – then mashes it into something else Inevitably, I’ll misremember it, and will probably end up creating something that bears a faint resemblance to something Hockney once painted, but in my own style.” AI doesn’t look at art and create its own. I’m going to think, ‘I like the way Hockney juxtaposed blocks of purple, green and ochre in that painting of a field I saw at the National Gallery.’ And then I’ll attempt to add that into my picture. He adds: “If I’m making a painting and decide it should be Hockney-esque, I’m not going to trawl the internet for millions of Hockney-esque images, work out exactly what traits makes these images Hockney-esque, then apply them to my picture, systematically and with forensic accuracy. There is an argument that AI generators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others’ work, but Biddulph says: “A human artist is also adding emotion and nuance into the mix, and memory – specifically, its failings.” Syed says that this could lead to the creation of images “that are intentionally meant to mimic my style” or that of other artists, without their consent. While prompts to image generators can be very general, they can also ask for an image to be based on the work of another artist, further blurring ethical boundaries. The real thing … Dapo Adeola’s debut Hey you! It samples everyone’s then mashes it into something else.” Harry Woodgate, author and illustrator of Grandad’s Camper, which won the Waterstones 2022 picturebook prize, says: “These programs rely entirely on the pirated intellectual property of countless working artists, photographers, illustrators and other rights holders.” It’s a point echoed by illustrator Anoosha Syed: “AI doesn’t look at art and create its own. Kaloyan Chernev, founder of DDG, says that the dataset comprises “largely public domain images sourced from the internet”, but many artists and illustrators say that databases will often also include a lot of copyrighted images. Among the biggest is the open-source LAION-5B dataset, used by DDG’s Text 2 Dream. These comprise billions of images that have been scraped from the internet. To create images from prompts, AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text. An online campaign – #NotoAIArt – has seen artists sharing concerns about the legality of AI image generators, and about how they have the potential to devalue the skill of illustration. And simply pressing a button to generate an image is not a creative process.”īeyond creativity, there are deeper issues. Whatever form it takes, be it a sculpture, a piece of music, a piece of writing, a performance, or an image, true art is about the creative process much more than it’s about the final piece. Fundamentally, I have always felt that art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists externally. Among them is author and illustrator Rob Biddulph, who says that AI-generated art “is the exact opposite of what I believe art to be. Children’s illustrators were quick to raise concerns about the technology on social media. The implications of AI image generation are far-reaching and could impact everything from film to graphic novels and more. ‘It’s nonsense’ … Rob Biddulph in his studio
