The models learn associations between the arrangement of pixels in an image and the image’s metadata, which typically includes text descriptions of the image subject and artistic style. Image synthesis models like Google Imagen, DALL-E and Stable Diffusion are trained using datasets of millions of images. Anytime anyone uses it, it just gets worse and worse for everybody.” “Anytime people use it more, this thing just keeps learning.

“We’re learning that even if you’re using it for your own inspiration, you’re still training it with other people’s data,” said Jon Lam, a storyboard artist at Riot Games. The fact that Lensa uses user content to further train its AI model, as stated in the app’s user agreement, should alarm the public, artists who spoke with NBC News said. In its Twitter thread, Lensa said that it uses a “separate model for each user, not a one-size-fits-all monstrous neural network trained to reproduce any face.” The company also stated that each user’s photos and “associated model” are permanently erased from its servers as soon as the user’s avatars are generated. The company’s user agreement states that Lensa can use the photos, videos and other user content for “operating or improving Lensa” without compensation. Prisma Labs deletes user photos from the cloud services it uses to process the images after it uses them to train its AI, the company told TechCrunch. When she realized that her art was included in a dataset used to train the AI model that Lensa uses to generate avatars, she said it felt like a “violation of identity.”

Ortiz, who is known for designing concept art for movies like “Doctor Strange,” also paints fine art portraits. While the value of art is subjective, the crux of the AI art controversy is the right to privacy. Other writers have posted about using the models to visualize scenes in their screenplays and novels. Several have pointed out that the models are helpful for generating reference images that are otherwise difficult to find online. For some artists, AI models are a creative tool.
