WHAT ARE WE THINKING!!! We should have known that this would happen eventually… I have been on scratch for most of my life but now they have done something unacceptable. Scratch has decided to take our art and use it for AI training. I WILL NOT be leaving scratch. Not yet anyway…. I will still post art… but it will be filtered so AI can’t use it for training. When I started scratch 5 years ago it was a creative and safe space for minors to show off skills and things like that. But now…. What have we become? People are using AI more and more and NOW scratch has decided to use our HARD WORK AND USE IT TO HELP AI!!!!! Art without passion ,With AI, this dimension of art could be lost because a machine cannot feel passions or emotions. Passion is at the heart of art and creation. It is the engine that drives artists to create, to express their ideas and feelings, to take risks and to push the limits of their own creativity. I will post a project on how to filter your art so AI can’t use it soon…
