Chat GPT vs Studio Ghibli Art Style Drama

In a new update, Chat GPT 4o allows you to create AI art in the Studio Ghibli art style. Several people turned memes into images in this style. On Twitter, it sparked a debate on ethics and copyright between Open AI and Studio Ghibli, due to the fact that Hayao Miyazaki is openly against generative AI in art.

#art #ai #ghibli

Key words there "without permission", literal copyright infringement.

See,
The founder of Studio Ghibli, Hayao Miyazaki is one of the most vocal and eminent opposers of generative ai tools, like this one
And then, this feature converts your regular pics into one with studio ghibli's art style
Which is clearly and completely disrespectful to Studio Ghibli and it's legacy and also immensely disrespects Hayao Miyazaki

"it's an insult to life itself"

[velvetaurora]

My opinion is that if the tool is unethical, it shouldn't be used. Regardless if it is even useful or even needed

[Banana_Banshee]

musk really do be posting cringe at an olympic level. i can’t believe they fr posted that to the official white house twitter page. 💀

shits just embarrassing at this point

[Redsmurfau]

The only thing ai art should be used for is frame upscale and random ai goop when your bored

[morkk]

People that generate ai "art" either has no shame or their brain aren't strong enough to understand that it's wrong

[Kubik]

People only have an issue with this because it is ghibli. 10 years ago AI was imitating van Gogh and created art like him. But nobody gave a shit.

[saturnjupiter]

My opinion is that ai art is fundamentally harmful to artists, it is the product of theft and copyright infringment and also kinda very stupid.

[triforceofcourage]

Generative ai needs to be limited like very limited like only for use in a minor patching up

[Rene-Channel]

you can't copyright style, but you can copyright work from that style :D

[Hibari_fan]

Uh. People using ai to make memes are weaklings. You either look for perfect image for days or draw it.

[LOgomon]

It recreates the style but not the soul of the art of Ghibli studio. The images I've seen lack a artistic perspective other than what was already present in the fotograph/meme.

[redacted]

My opinion is: the vast majority of the world doesn't care and just enjoy making stuff that's amusing

[aroulos]

But how is this any different than a human drawing it in that art style? Why is it not copyright infringment when a human takes inspiration or copies an art style?
