It is a false equivalence, because you actually fed it something you created to translate. It isn't plagiarism. Even if paying a translator, it still isn't plagiarism. However, paying an artist to paint a picture and then say you painted it, would be unacceptable, right?
If you paid a translator and said you translated it. It would be unacceptable, right?
Also, translations are protected under their own rights, so yes it is plagiarism.
Not sure what your experience is, but this is not the case.
It has been the case for many years until diffusion models come along.
AI still hasn't generated art, other than the art of the code that leads to the generation. It has generated an output that mimics the art, but doesn't have any journey of the artist required to make it actual art. I can take a photo of a tree, but my photo doesn't live the life of a tree.
And do you think machine translators lived a life of a translator to create translations? Did MTLs learn a language's intricacies? Did MTLs spend hundreds of hours translating documents, poems or novels? You know there is a reason there are multiple translations for poems because translation is subject to that translator's own journey.
Translations are not different from art. So why MTLs are acceptable but AI art not?
You have still missed the point of the false equivalence. A translation is based on an actual piece of writing by a person (if not AI generated) who had a journey. An AI generated image is not the same.
For example, if you grab a pen and paper and draw some Manga from your own hand and mind, how close do you get to the images you generated on your blog?
As I told you there is no false equivalence.
The person who has used MTL has no skill at translation, or do you think they could get close to the translation the machine spit out? If they used their own hand and mind?
And those images on my blog are still based on a piece of writing from a person. ie the prompt and all the other options like CFG Scale etc.
And I have proven that your claim that this is false equivalency is not true multiple times. What you are doing is just proof by assertion and if we are not going to argue in good faith there is nothing more to add.
No - you haven't proven anything. And, by the lack of answering the actual question I asked, I will assume you can't draw.
Yeah, I can't draw what about it?
And people who use MTLs can't translate.
Please translate your sentence to Japanese, just using your hands and mind. Can you do it?
I assume you can't.
I've proven many times that translation is equivalent to art. It requires skill, experience and this "Journey" you are so fond of. Disproving your false equivalence argument.
Or do you think MTLs don't mimic translation skills? Or do you think that translations don't require skill? Or do you think translations don't require experience?
As I said since you can't argue in good faith and can't accept that your arguments have failed miserably. There is nothing more to add.
You are conflating arguments.
