      TBF, those artists are paid to produce work that is explicitly going to be used for the LLM. I don't think that's really a big issue, as long as it's explicit commissions. The real issue is when they just update their ToS to include using existing works for LLMs

      Adobe who intended to do so received more hate than figma did. However, adobe's attitude is really bad when it comes to apologize and cut off their criminal actions. I think ripping off individuals' work is much more worser, sinful and criminal than ripping of a company.

      I know, common to have coloring for good to bad = green to red, locations of temperature, etc. There are so many conventions of information hierarchy that most weather apps will look familial, unless you want a 'weird' design that many won't understand.

  • @SickBeard

    Why is it concerning that they trained on Apple Weather, when all AI companies (including Apple) think they can just train their models on "the open web"?

    This gets to the heart of a problem with copyright and patents especially as computers have sped up the process. Take the weather app. It might be a large number, but there are finite ways to show temperature. Eventually you will hit a point where it isn't possible to create something "unique". What happens when a company gets ownership of all possible music combinations in 30 seconds?

    • @hundvd_7
      @hundvd_7 Před 4 dny +4

      Not just that, but it has to be _good,_ too. There really aren't a lot of ways you can make an 8/10 or better design for a weather app designed primarily for smartphones being held vertically. That is a _lot_ of constraints.
      My Poco's (Xiaomi's) Weather app looks pretty similar, too. And everywhere it deviates from Apple's design is just a straight downgrade. If it was actually well made, it would necessarily have to be even more similar

    • @ChristopherCricketWallace
      @ChristopherCricketWallace Před 3 dny

      someone actually did that to try to stick it to the litigious record labels. Noah Rubin, Damien Riehl coded software to make "music" with as many combinations of notes as possible in order to declare it all creative commons or own the copyright and give it away for free.
      OF COURSE the industry lawyers found a way to thwart them (because they didn't think of it, first, I'm sure).

    I've said it for some time now, generative AI for creators: (designers, illustrators, artists) is still at least half a decade early. If there's any demography to go up in arms against gen AI - that's it. There's a lot of warming up to happen and the last place you should be bringing it into first is the same place this demography exists. On the other hand, I think design as a field is the least automated field and turning on AI at this point might be a bad call in the end.

  • @antisk8

    I dunno man that v0 generation was kinda similar - Not to disregard your main points which i find acurate but that initial v0 test looked pretty 'apple-like'. The subsequent test where it came out different is a great point however.

      Do you design for work? I am not a designer but have done a lot of design, and I see it as close enough to Apple’s design to be a concern, and I am guessing your answer will be “no.”
      I don’t think Apple deserves more protection than individual artists, but things are inherently unfair like that.

    Not wanna support AI in general I think 99% of the AI features out there are garbage. But isn't that normal. A design that has proven to be good gets copied and slightly modified. That happens all the time even without AI. Especially in times of UI Kits where everything looks kinda similar.

    What is a bit alarming is that the AI might take stuff literally based on what it reads or are there checks for that ? for ex the unique app who and how would the human decide its actually unique and pass it off to the ai with that attribute?

    Gotta admit I don't watch Theo cuz I don't like the format of his videos and the stuff he does. I like primagen way more in this regard. But somehow this video got on my home yt page so I thought, I would give it a try.
    But I think this is the most boring video from Theo I saw, bro its a mobile design and it's a fricking AI. The AI has to learn and train on some material, the same as the designer that will ultimately design the product. In design schools you learn basics, copy others and improve on successful stuff others made or make your version of something that was already made. In the real world, most designers take a screenshot import it to Figma make some changes so it's not so obvious and then "bem" a design.
    Plus the design shown does not look the same and it would have been ok to use in your app. How would you design a weather app? It will have a UV index with the same colours cuz it's a fricking uv index. Sunset and sunrise are in most apps the same. Like, if this video is about "Oh no AI designs the same thing a lot of other companies design if I input a generic prompt???! Oh no!" then wtf? AI is just repurposing work from other successful designs, somehow trying to come up with something. But y all expect something "creative" out of it? AI is shit and will be shit for the next couple of years. Now its only quality is in using instead of Google search, rephrasing sentences and generating somehow acceptable graphics.
    This video just confirmed why I don't like watching Theo. His videos are mostly without his unique perspective. It's just like he only reads the article.
    Sorry had to stop watching after 2mins.

    • @cromrin

      @@primostasis I had saw theo's videos on primeagen reactions and sometimes these types of "bait" titles pop up on my recommended page.
      Often times I am too drunk to see that its theo and not primeagen and watch few minutes of the video, until I gladly go watch something else and pop another shot.
      If theo's video can get me to don't like it after 2 minutes that's something wrong with the format.
      If he is after those few minutes not just reading the article like a robot, and has some valid arguments maybe from his experience hit me up and I will give it a try on 2x speed.

    There’s nothing wrong with the AI’s output. AI is supposed to learn from existing systems. If it creates the same design as an existing system, just prompt it to make the changes. Some try too hard to be seen as smart😂. Figma should have just ignored the guy’s complaints and shouldn’t have taken the feature down. There are many people hallucinating issues all the time, they’ll always find an issue with something

  • @calebpanza
    @calebpanza Před 4 dny

    What are the odds that their data is trained on licensed Apple designs? For Apple, they might WANT "weather app" to be associated with THEIR weather app. Continue to communicate themselves as the standard. If it were a clone of Carrot, that might seem stranger to me than the AI cloning one of the most objectively popular weather apps on the market today... (not saying it's "right", but also not at all surprised by the results)

  • @ghostinplainsight4803

    I would expect that the AI is using the styleguide attributes of the design, like the font, font-weight, line-height, margin's, padding, colours & type of component/element etc... Then it could create unique designs without needing to copy anything. But they should just make a free tier where part of the terms are that you allow permission for the AI to be trained on your designs in your existing Figma projects. Pay a subscription for newer better features and to disable this behaviour. Companies that care will pay, ordinary users probably won't care and would prefer free limited usage of the AI.

    I love how AI consistently proves itself to be a tool almost exclusively for laziness and theft (especially lazy theft). Worst of it all is that I've actually had it have practical uses. I once used Vibe, a free tool for generating recording transcripts, and it did a pretty good job. So there IS an use. It's just, you know, very niche and plenty far from the mainstream use that got pushed down our throats. So yeah, even if there are actual uses, by now I just want this entire industry dead and buried.

If they had been slightly less lazy and stolen designs from indy-developers, they would have just ignored the complaints.
    It its just like every other LLM feature coming out right now: hastily trained on other peoples works, untested, and its best usecase is "copyright-infringement with plausible deniability".
