I enjoy doing people photography in the form of photographing cosplay and events. I'm more on the documentary side, so I like going to anime, sci-fi, and related conventions to take photos. Though, I've dabbled in photoshoots and more detailed forms of cosplay photography over the years which can sometimes mix reality and art. Even so, a photograph in that case still has some connection to reality with heavy modification. With the advent of text to image generators, it is clear that many companies have been training on photography of every genre they can get their hands on. Meta is now officially using public posts on Instagram and Facebook to train their generative models, which includes generating cosplay photography and videography from a text prompt. Why are these models being trained on real people? What's the point? What's the value here? In this video I talk about various considerations of photographers and cosplayers being taken advantage of by companies and groups using our work to train their text to image based AI models. #Facebook #Instagram
