      They’re trying, but i legit don’t see how it would make a difference. Their only option is to try and lock down the domestic market by making ai work legally copyrightable by companies. By using US law to give companies the profits using stolen training data, they’d be basically subsidizing the industry. Investors will naturally subsidize the tech since they can now put it into big budget projects without fear of legal issues, and we’d see ai take over Hollywood blockbusters and shows.

      Of course, such an approach would further undermine the US in the long run, as our rush to twist ip laws would not be embraced by everyone. Most countries aren’t as hyper capitalist about their media, and flooding the market with low quality slop would only make the US entertainment industry more irrelevant globally.

      It’d be yet another capitalist grift that destroys the empire, dooming our country to some truly dark times. There’s always the possibility that those with power will see the wisdom in reformation, but I really doubt it. Our current generation of politicians are too brainrotted by neoliberalism to every compromise wealth for the sake of anything, including the long term survival of the country. It wouldn’t take much to convince most of them to embrace breaking up the nation, which would mean mass death and war. I’m not optimistic that the end of the US would be anything more than a feudal shit show.

    I don’t like AI-generated yiff. I want to feel the lust behind every stroke of the pen, the attention to detail necessary to add just the right amount of excessive_cum, and the passion and love in the characters’ eyes as they fuck each other silly. Sure, there are artists whose style isn’t as “refined” or whatever, but they spend so much time and put so much effort into drawing their naughty little pics, and that alone makes them so much better than AI-generated slob.

    We don’t need any more furryGPT, we already have diffusion at home.

    All the best researchers went to Anthropic and elsewhere. The difference between proprietary and open weights is meh now. SolarRoofGPT burns the Sol, and tech bro digi slave traders. Long live open weights Chinese AI.

    Just noting that image gen is done by s different architecture than an LLM, and the environmental impacts are not the same (in particular, much much less energy use than having a human make one image, and substantially less water use than going to the toilet).
