When Openai made her debut image generation Feature in Chatgpt last week, social media exploded when users realized that they could make images generated by AI that looked like something from an animated film from Ghibli studio. The fans hoped that the brain of the Ghibli Hayao Miyazaki studio would take a stand, but the 84 -year -old host remained silent. In the Ghibli fan suredditHowever, fans impose a long -standing ban against AI art.
“I just noticed a dozen different messages” Ban Ai Now “here apparently stimulated by an influx of art from Ai Ghibli on other sites”, a moderator, a moderator poster In the underground of Ghibli last week. “We do not authorize the art of AI. We have not allowed it essentially because it has become one thing.”
These fans do not consider the copies generated by AI as a tribute to the emblematic artist. On the contrary, these generative models of AI are trained in images protected by the copyright of artists like Miyazaki, who have never given Openai or any of his competitors permission to use their work as such.
This problem is also an impact on other creators and writers. The New York Times And other publishers continued Openai, alleging that the company used its documents protected by copyright to train its models without payment or consent. Similar complaints were filed against Meta and Midjourney.
Ghibli’s situation struck a particularly strong nerve among fans since the studio brain, Hayao Miyazaki, expressed his hatred for works of art generated by AI.
“I can’t look at this thing and find it interesting,” said Miyazaki said In documentary images of 2016 during which the 3D animation generated by AI-AI was shown. “The one who creates this thing has no idea of pain. I am completely disgusted.”
People have also generated portraits in the style of Pixar movies And Dr Seuss illustrations. Even the X-House account has published an image of Ghibli- style roughly mocking A woman to cry while being handcuffed by ice.
While more “ghiblified” images spread on the internet, fans of the legendary 84 -year -old host resurfaced on surface of his comment to discourage others from imitating his work, but the damage had already been caused. Of course, not all of them are Ghibli style images, but the popularity of these images has extended the capacity of the company of AI.
Brad Lightcap of Openai, which oversees daily operations in the company, said that more than 130 million users had generated more than 700 million images With this new Chatgpt feature.
“The range of visual creativity has been extremely inspiring”, Lightcap wrote.
