Playing with DALL-E 2

Magazines and newspapers are regularly paying thousands of dollars for a single abstract illustration for an article. DALL-E 2 is going to replace a huge proportion of that. Not only the cost saving, but you can get an image minutes before you go to press.

And what if the image is mostly comprised of an existing artwork with copyright? Not sure I'd take that legal risk as a newspaper.

Then it will be rejected by the person using DALL-E, or someone else in the publishing chain? Maybe an automated reverse image search AI?

I don't think anyone (yet) imagines all the humans at the NYT will be replaced by GPTX+DALL-E. We still have editors even though humans author the articles.

Does that exist? Can you determine how mcuch of a DALL-E picture is identical to copyrighted material? And what's the threshold anyway for copyright to apply? I'm not sure that's a process with set rules yet.

Until it can deal with a round of feedback without completely changing the imagine then illustrators have nothing to worry about.

It can already do that to some extent. You can erase bits you don't like and give it a new description to fill them in with.
