    They also were inspired by other creations. Like Superman’s strength and flight ability.

        It shouldn’t be. That’d stealing work from others and I doubt most are paying the original artist

          So what you’re tell me all artists in history should be sending residuals to the first caveman to draw on a wall?

          You know what, sure, let’s go with that. Maybe copyright enforcement is the way to discovering time travel in this reality.

            I will issue you a challenge: create art inspired by absolutely nothing and 100% orginal.

              Why would I agree to a challenge that I know is impossible?

              I thought the implications of my sarcastic comment about the first cave painting was that there is no 100% original or inspiration-free work of art at this point in human history. However, there is a difference between plagiarism and transformative work.

              Dante’s Inferno is based off the Bible. Does that mean Dante should have given all credit and proceeds of his sales to the Church? Jesus? God? That’s what my cave painting joke was trying to highlight.

                Dude, I’m sorry.

                I wasn’t drunk or hungover yet posted a reply to the wrong person. That was meant for the touching grass user.

                I totally agree with you.

            Don’t be silly, residuals only last until 70 years after the artist’s death… that caveman died thousands of years ago. /s

            Absolutely. If you create a piece of art. Its precious and anyone who ever looked at that piece owes the artist something. This debt should be paid for life and beyond for all time. End of story

              You sound like someone who cannot or does not make art.

                I’m demanding eternal payments for shit nobody wanted while putting it out on every platform to market it like an ebusker

                What’s the point of shared open spaces if I cant monetize them and take everyone else’s shit down with DMCA claims.

                I’m 100% artist baby

                  Okay, so you’ve confirmed it.

                  Sorry you can’t make art. Some day you’ll find joy. But not today because you sound like a miserable cunt, but someday surely.

      The only true artist is Ooonga Baloonga, who invented art when he drew something roughly resembling an animal on a random cave wall 6 bajillion years ago. Everything since then is derivative bullshit, lifeless imitations of his unique vision.

        I bet the first painting wasn’t of an animal, it was probably porn a fertility deity.

        That’s the argument they’re making against people who think LLMs are inherently theft.

      That’s the point. It’s supposed to be a facsimile of s man. The whole plot of the show is a critique of comic book tropes and the consequences of idolizing superheroes etc

      Exactly. It’s like Elon pointing at a SpaceX rocket and saying that he made it.
