It is likely that we will reach a point where these ML things will recognise patterns across creative works, see what sell and use them to make similar stories using those same patterns.
Which is clear they will sell more since they will be cheaper, faster to make thus flooding the market with engaging-but-unoriginal stories.
Before, humans used to do the exact same. Why is it be different now with AI? It’s just more and faster imo.
Why would anyone read GOT in space when they can just read GOT? The people opting for GOT in space will most likely already have read GOT anyhow. And that already takes long af. So it’s a smaller fan base closer to fanfiction, which btw already existed before AI became a thing. It will never surpass the original. Also copyright should never forbid someone to write in the style of someone else. How would you even proove it?
Why should we ban AI, a really useful technology, also for co-collaboration within the Arts, just because some people will make money with it? Art has been constant copypaste remixing anyhow.
I’d rather have us get rid of capitalism instead lol, which is the actual reason why commercial artists are scared. Hobby artists don’t give a damn lol.
Edit: There’s technique in art too, which some would define as style. Copyrighting a style should therefore not be an option.

I said ban for creative works, at least for commercial use, which is a very little part of what can be done with AI; and maybe personal informations processing though, cause you know… privacy

Because it won’t be called GoT: space edition, it will be a rip-off of GoT with the same overarching story and characters but in a scifi/whatever setting. And yes, it already happens: many TV series on Netflix are a rip off of other successful series (most of the time produced by Netflix), which flood the platform; it happens with every single successful serie. You can find dozens if not more of the same, fucking, TV serie with a different name but with the same old jokes, characters, plot point and sometime style.
Why do people watch them anyway? For the same reason cable TV is so trash: cheap entertainment works, no matter how shitty it is; it happens with anime/manga/light novels too.
And yes, it is shitty. But at least it takes time to write and produce that crap, while with AI it will be immediate and cheap. Cheap and immediate means they will produce so much crap, finding quality stuff will be nigh impossible since it will cost much much more to produce with less earnings than garbage.
It will never surpass the original
I think you don’t watch, play games et similia… originality is a luxury nowadays. Why do you think Netflix cancels every single serie that isn’t a hit in the first few months? Cause they can. It is cheaper and lucrative to cancel what doesn’t work and re-iterate on the same shitty formula until the crap sticks on the wall. And it works, they do it, and they do it now.

This is quite easy actually, while it’s hard for technical things. Taking inspiration doesn’t mean copying. Modern “AI” doesn’t think, which means anything it does is a copy.
We are already reaching, if we aren’t already, a Fahrenheit 451 level of entertainment, “AI” will surely put the final nail on the coffin.
“AI” are a beautiful thing, but in our current society, where profits is everything and people are nothing but a number, they are the scariest shit ever

Yeah that’s what I meant tho. It’s a useful tool for creating art in human-ai collaboration. Why should it be banned for that? The real problem is that people who give the data don’t see a dime. But if you could fix that (see Jaron Laniers work on micro-payments) it should be available for everything. The downside of this ‘fair’ system would be a total surveillance society tho.

But what’s the unique role of AI here? People have been doing this since forever. It’s just a matter of personal taste if you consume it or not.
And if your Art is outstanding enough you will still be able to live from it. I’m assuming that if everyone copies your work, you will have been successful before already.

You’re making it too easy for yourself. Is an AI work a copy if it doesn’t resemble the original anymore? What if the human work resembles the copy more than the AI work? Is it still just an inspiration? What about human-ai collaborative pieces? What is thinking, what is inspiration, what is a copy?
There’s a reason why these questions have such an elaborate philosophical backbone.

Oh yeah true that haha.
