>You shouldn't be able to copyright art style!

Say that, hypothetically, you become a famous artist and someone trains an AI on your style. By some sheer coincidence, you manage to make an image that is perfect or near-perfect to an image that was AI generated based on your style. You have never seen that image before.

If we give artists the ability to copyright an image, but not a style, then who owns the image in question? The AI prompter, because he generated it first, or you, because you drew the image?

Well it should... I'm sure people who uses AI disagree.

But when it comes to a famous artist style, a living artist or have anyone living that hold any right to said artist works.

I don't know. Maybe they can sue the person if they want.

But if the artist is famous enough and have a big enough fanbase. They'll do the attacking/shaming/cancelling on behalf of the artist whether he likes it or not.

Don't use AI to copy a specific style.

Try to be creative and create your OWN style of work with the help of AI. You want to be an artist? That's what artist do.

If I have the ability to copy any style I wouldn't be satisfied with that. I want my own work in my own style. I want people to see my work and say "hey, thats (myname) work."

Copy because you're inspired, copy because you want to practice but don't copy because you want to be a clone of said artist.

Your end goal should not be that.

Spoken like a true artlet. Every artist has their own style. There are practically infinite types of different styles.

In that case, styles should be copyrighted and any works made with AI should belong to the artist who made it.

Yeah but in US you need to prove that your style is different, specifically to a jury that is untrained in the subject. Good luck with that when the other side is backed by Disney's 5-billion legal department. It'd take approximately 10 years for Disney to own every art style and ban making art for everyone else if styles were copyrightable.

We can just make an artstyle's copyright only apply to individuals instead of corporations.

Because lawyers own the planet, and they want to keep the jury system, because it allows them to manipulate gullible normies and get any result they want.

We could do about a billion things, but the value of any proposition is going to be only weighed on the basis of "Does this make me (rich person/corporation) a lot of money." We could fix world hunger if we wanted to. Assuming we'll ever do it is utopian thinking.

I'm not a prooompter, but I've had experience in the music sphere and the lawsuits there. This is quite literally already happening, only it matters for artists if they become successful and suddenly big publishers are suing them for their music being "too similar" to something old and winning. So it already is happening, even though style is not even copyrightable yet.

>copyrighting styles
That's not the issue, and it never has been. The issue is that your work has been stolen, fed into an AI meatgrinder, and the resulting soup used to make new images. It's the same issue you run into when someone photobashes or traces your artwork- your own property is being used directly to make the resulting product. It's one thing to be a hack or a copycat- despite being rightly looked down upon, that isn't illegal (and shouldn't be). It's entirely another thing to take someone's actual work and use it directly.
>inb4 some techbro pajeet fa/g/got says "but da ay eye is learning like an AKSHOOAL HYUMAN BEAN DOES, it's not copying!!!!"
It isn't. It's a machine learning algorithm, that is taking what it's trained on and transforming it in a purely mathematical way. It's not magic, it's not a genie, it's not sentient or able to "think" in any way. If it were, it would be a general intelligence, and would necessitate the discussion of far more dire issues.

The thing is that the Stable Diffusion AI may be a lot more derivative than one might think at first glance. The more limited the data it has to pull from- such as from a single artist, or a niche style that doesn't easily match up with real life photographic data like ye olde master realism does- the more you can see the "seams" and instances of almost blatant copy-pasting where it lacks material to work with. See this comparison of a SamDoesArts piece with something generated by a SamDoesArts SD model, which I found within about five minutes of searching- it straight up looks like a shitty photobash and paintover.
So no, this isn't about "muh style". This thing is straight up stealing your shit and photobashing with it.

You can't copyright anything that an AI generated, at least not in the US.
Tbh, it's a decent compromise: artists are being used as studying material without compensation, therefore anything that is generated can't be owned either.

Says who? The vast majority of AIs are trained in all sorts of data that the AI handlers never owned.

AI Dev's not training on work without permission is a courtesy and not legally enforceable.
The act (based on use) itself of training may be challenged in court, but it would a hard case because training doesn't disseminate copyrightable information.
The other case may be if you asked the AI to theoretically give me a 1:1 copy of a say a movie/animation if technically possible but that would also imply some type of derivative work.

You don't need to. If the AI causes any financial harm to anyone (by removing jobs, for instance), they cannot have an exemption from international copyright law, and as such their use of the images of the rights holder is de facto unlawful. You can't use anything that person A has created in order to compromise their legitimate interests or conflict with their exploitation of the work.
