prompts copy of other artist

[Usmani28805015drbk]

The guideline mentioned from the update on August 23rd addresses the copying of prompts used by other artists for generating AI images. If you write a prompt like "apple on the branch of a tree," which is a realistic description, and if many artists have already used this prompt and generated images based on it, it's not a direct violation of the guideline to use it as well. The intention is to avoid directly copying unique and creative prompts that individual artists have come up with.

However, if i use a more common prompt like "apple, banana, or tomato on a white background," it might not be a direct copy of another artist's prompt since it's a general and common concept? The guideline primarily aims to prevent the reuse of distinct and specific prompts that are creative and unique to a particular artist's work.

What is your question?

You are not allowed to copy prompts of other artists. You are allowed to invent your own prompts. “Apple on a tree” is not a prompt that is protected, however. If someone says using apple on a tree, you can use it too. However, you can't copy that very complex prompt that produces a very nice picture for your pictures.

There is nothing complicated here.

I think you're referring to the guidelines in the pinned post in this forum which says:

• Do not submit any assets created with prompts in the style of other artists or referring to famous people or brands. 
• Content created by prompts that refer to artists, styles, or works that no longer have copyright protection may be acceptable so long as you verify that no other rights apply to the prompt (e.g., publicity rights, cultural heritage rights, etc.).  If you are unsure if you have the necessary rights, do not submit content made using that prompt. 

This means that you can't write a prompt that says, for instance, "in the style of Andy Warhol soup cans". Doing so would violate the IP rights of the famous artist Andy Warhol. It does not mean that you can't copy or try to simulate the AI prompts of other AI contributors.

Can i copy the prompts of Ai artist that most common things like moterbike on a road accident thats relate a real life please tell us and if i copy a prompt that is very unique thats againt a? My question is how to copy a prompt  if i can copy a title a shutter stock or other website and reflect into a prompts?

[Jill_C]

I'm not sure what you're asking. Of course, technically you can copy the prompts of another contributor, but that's not ethical and what's the point of doing that? You'll just generate another copy of an existing asset. You should be trying to generate new and unique content if you actually want to sell anything...

My question is adobe release a new update

 Don’t: Submit content created using prompts containing other artist names, or created using prompts otherwise intended to copy another artist

whats this means Adobe block my account if I copy titles from other Ai contributors?

Don't copy the prompts of other artists. Invent your own. You shoud not copy. As soon as you copy, you are comitting a copyright violation. Copyright violations will get you banned. Period.

update on 23 aug so my files that has uploaded on 23 aug before and if i copy the title before 23 aug if there any promblem?

[Abambo]

Write it in your language, your post here is difficult to understand.

[Usmani28805015drbk]

On August 23rd, there was an update. If I had copied the titles of files before August 23rd and those files were uploaded before 23 August , would there be any issues?

The copy rules were in place before. Adobe just did add some precision information to them.

Reread my response above. Adobe is not referring to other AI "artists", though I hesitate to call those who type in prompts "artists". They are referring to well known artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Georgia O'Keeffe, etc. 

The advice you have received both here and in the Discord channel is to NOT copy anyone, whether or not they're famous. If you can't come up with any new, unique and creative prompts yourself, maybe you're in the wrong business. You'll never sell any assets if you just copy others...

AI "designers" is my preferred use, rather than artists. Much like graphic designers, who aren't really artist in the truest sense of the term, as they rely on the use of assets of others to create pleasing compositions, web sites, ads, or what have you. If there is art involved, it is in the technical sense, i.e., editing, if skill in any given area can be considered a form of art.

@daniellei4510, 

I love that definition! I would have used Prompt writers or AI artists.

[daniellei4510]

I've even seen one example of someone referring to themselves as a "prompt engineer," which I think is going a little overboard. 🙂

[Jill_C]

"Engineer" is indeed quite an exaggeration. Sounds like they're trying to give themselves far more credit for their creations than is due !

[Abambo]

@Jill_C,

I'm an engineer, so I could name myself “Prompt Engineer”. OK, I'm not doing AI, but if I would, I would need now new business cards… ‌😄‌

[daniellei4510]

No, that is not what it means. But I would certainly avoid copying prompts from others who contribute here. And I'm not sure where you would find their prompts in any case.

There are actually facebooks groups dedicated to prompt sharing and members are openly invited to use submitted prompts. But that does not necessarily mean you should copy a prompt verbatim unless it is very general in nature, as in @Abambo's example, "an apple on a tree."

The idea behind prompt sharing is so that others can learn more about the nuances of prompting. For example, not many people are aware that prompts can contain mathematical formulas that can often produce extraordary results. Using such prompts, and then substituting the variables and descriptions with other numbers, subjects, aspect ratios, etc., can aid in learning how AI works to produce results more in line with what you might be wanting to create, rather than letting AI create a bunch of mumbo-jumbo. In Midjourney, for example, what does --s 100 mean and does it affect the results? What does --chaos 10 mean and what does it affect the results? How does --uplight affect the results? The list goes on. Experiment. But don't copy outright would be my suggestion. 

So to answer your question: Yes, it is OK, and no, it is not OK. 🙂 Use the prompt of others not to copy, but to learn from and grow.
