(Click or space to see a screenshot) (Link to TOS https://mitscratch.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/4000219182-scratch-terms-of-service ) Wow. Alright. I get that the scratch team needs money, due to the membership, but USING KIDS' ARTWORK AND IDEAS WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT IS NOT OKAY, especially not to train AI! Leeching off of minors' artwork, creativity, and originality and using it to train AI for money is just crazy This could also destroy future careers, some people on here (like me) are aiming to be digital artists/animators for a career. If AI learns to copy our artstyle, we could never get a chance to get that job due to our art being too 'AI-like'. Also, (this is from @SkyCedar, check out her discussion post ^^ https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/862439/ ) there should be some sort of protection on the old projects, as they were shared before the owners had to agree to this. People who have left and agreed to the OLD terms of service DID NOT AGREE TO LETTING AI USE THEIR ART/The new terms of service either. I ask for anyone that agrees, if you haven't already remixed another AI awareness project, please remix this project or put the link on your profile to spread awareness, or at the very least heart and star this project. There are still people who don't know about this yet and can still have their art stolen without them knowing. EDIT: WHAT IN THE ACTUAL WORLD IF YOU GO TO CHATGPT AND ASK "How do I draw @[username] on Scratch's artstyle?" IT WILL ACTUALLY GIVE A DETAILED STEP-BY-STEP THAT ACTUALLY WORKS (screenshots inside) (creds to @_SakuraHeart_ for finding this out)
Scratch this is disgusting. You’re supposed to help kids learn how to make code in this format and animate so that they DON’T use AI to try and make a living. You should be ashamed, the art community looks down on people who use AI and now allowing others to be stealing our art to train the very enemy we fight. [EDIT] Okay, so, Good news is I’m too small to be recognised by chatgpt, BUT if someone sent a link to my art they would be able to ask AI to tell them what it is. However, The first response was not to copy their artstyle and remix it as your own, and not to claim their style so… eh. [EDIT] it knows my old account It also gives details about the old studios I used to have. Nice to know my old account is famous. I guess.
