Imagine this: Doraemon sees your artwork on the internet. Then, he picks up a pencil, brush, and paint, and starts learning to draw. His drawings are not exactly like your masterpiece, but he is greatly inspired by your work. Then, he takes a photo of his artwork with a camera, finally post it.

Doraemon is Artificial General Intelligence. Can Doraemon’s work be considered stealing? Can Doraemon be called a thief?

Dear every creator in any field, but the idea of your creation ‘being stolen’ by a machine will no longer be relevant in the near future.

I guess the next stage of AI will be able to see and learn using cameras as their eyes, everything that hooman can see, AI understood. Current models like transformers, diffusion, or the latest multimodal are merely for testing stages. Trillions of parameters and datasets are just the initial requirements to achieve something greater.

When we encounter robots that think with true intelligence, they will be able to perceive the world like a baby who knows nothing and can learn and create works based on what they experience.

Me as someone who grew up watching Astroboy and Doraemon. My stand in AI & Art is: I want artists create amazing works and be happy with their skills, like they were before the 2020s. And I want to see tech & science give birth to a cool robot like Doraemon in my lifetime, as imagined by artists in the 1970s.

As simple as that :D
