Art is expression through a medium, and by that definition, machine learning cannot generate art. There is no cognitive, psychological or emotional difference between Midjourney and Control Panel. It's all manipulation of numbers, incapable of emotion or expression.

Machine learning will reference existing art. If those artists haven't consented to their art being used, that's not right. Collaging is a form of art because it uses human creativity to combine many different pieces into one. However, machine learning is basically just another form of tracing. It has no creativity.

So everyone that makes digital art and hasn't heard, there are two tools developed by the University of Chicago called Glaze and Nightshade.

Glaze is a tool to defend against neural networks mimicking art styles. It causes the neural networks to output weird and mangled versions of what would be generated otherwise: https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/downloads.html

Nightshade is a tool to 'poison' datasets and confuse neural networks into generating incorrect images. It turns hats into cakes: https://nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/downloads.html

As he made his way deeper into the valley, the air around him began to shimmer and shift. The ground beneath his feet seemed to undulate and the trees seemed to stretch up into the sky, reaching for the clouds. Zinc felt his senses heightened, as if he was seeing and hearing everything around him in a new way.

Suddenly, he was overcome with a feeling of déjà vu. He knew, he just knew, that he had been here before. He could see glimpses of the future in his mind, as if he was already there, experiencing it all.

Zinc felt his heart racing with excitement as he explored the valley, marveling at the strange and wondrous sights that seemed to appear out of nowhere. He knew that this was a place of magic and mystery, and he was eager to see what other secrets the valley held.

As the sun began to set, Zinc knew it was time to enter the portal opening in skies above him. What was waiting for him? What was beyond the 10th?
