Advanced in artificial intelligence raise new ethics concerns 

Here’s how it works ,to create new content .this program are  trained  on data sets of existing content .that hold text image video files  even code scraped  from the internet .some  artists  say this amounts to appropriating their work without permission .including south African artist Jono dry .

This  scares me ,it makes a huge part of my practice somewhat redundant 

Hey artists, if you have wondering if ai have been using your art to train itself ,I  figure  out where to look …

Lllustrator Carlianne Tipsey suggested artist  to go to the site “haveIbeentrained.com “to see if their artwork was used in  training popular text-to-imaging  program.

I personally found my book cover on there and a lot of stuff from my favorite artists 

And last month ,the artist protested the portfolio site ArtStation for featuring ai-generated art on its page .

This new wave of sophisticated ai tools is rising some tricky  ethical questions ,as well as a big concerns about topic such as the future  of human labor .

The origins  of Venetian  gondolas are lost to history ,but by 1500’s some 10 000 gondolas transported dignitaries  merchants and  goods through the city’s canals  ,like a  modern day taxi system ,gondolas  were leased to boatman ,who made the round of the city’s ferry stations 。passenger paid fare to be carried from one side of the grand canal to the other , as well as to other points around the city , but gondolas soon develop the bad rap, historical documents describe numerous infractions involving boatmen, including cursing  Grambling , extorting passengers ,even occasional acts of violence ，to minimize the unpredictability of canal travel  , the Venetian  citizens who could  afford it purchase their own gondolas ,just as celebrity  might use a  private  car and  driver today .these wealthy Venetians hires two private gondoliers to ferry around the city and maintain their boats ,the (gondolas soon became  status  symbol ,much like an  expensive cars ,with custom fittings carved and gilded ornamentation ,and seasonal fabrics like silk and velvet .（雕刻和镀金装饰的定制配件，以及丝绸和天鹅绒等季节性面料）
