Are artists getting the short end of the A.I. stick? Faced with a loss of potential revenue, many artists are questioning the value of A.I. models that train on their artwork to produce artwork for users at no cost. Zero dollars from your labor isn't a good deal.
In this episode of Art Problems, I discuss the short comings of using licensing to deal with A.I. companies acting like bullies stealing your lunch money.
But, I also talk about which text-based platforms are most useful to artists writing artist statements and show off the results of my testing.
No spoilers here, but I'll say this much: An A.I. platform that makes your statement better exists, and it's not ChatGPT!
