A.I. comic Zarya of the Dawn declared ineligible for copyright protections

← Thread MAIJIN.THE ARTIST ✔ @MAIJINTHEARTIST A.I. COMIC BOOK REJECTED by the U.S. Copyright Office in landmark decision. Kris Kashtanova used Midjourney's A.I. model to produce the comic book, Zarya of The Dawn...and became the most publicized test case for whether A.I. image generations should be granted copyright protections for human authorship. She was rightfully rejected. Why? Well, the Copyright attorneys have echoed what I mentioned before, which is ANY prompter's contribution to the A.I. image generation process is purely ART DIRECTION. Therefore, a prompter is NEITHER directly or substantially responsible for the actual authorship of the image itself - just the direction of it. But even so, STILL prompters have less say in the art direction than most Art Directors who work with human artists...because the A.I. generation process is still largely randomized/arbitrary, despite the specificity of the prompter or prompt engineer. Make no mistake, Kris Kashtanova was backed by Midjourney and the A.I. community as a whole, who OBVIOUSLY sent her out with Midjourney's legal counsel to legitimize A.I. 'art' by getting it 'on record' as legal precedent, and indistinguishable from human crafted art.... which is why the entire A.I. community attempted to anthropomorphologize the neural network of the A.I. models as this was playing out. This is a major win for artists and creators all across the country...and the world. Source: t.co/wlSw3sEYTO Thanks to @franklingraves for breaking the news.

Original Character Design Inspired by AI Art

I know people are understandably weary of AI art, but I just wanted to show this off as an example of why I've found it very useful as an artist. I had a character in mind for a while but I had writer's block trying to figure out how I wanted them to look. These Novel AI pictures gave me some good inspiration.
