AI art is just as much theft as piracy is, its not and the only morons who say it is are financially incentivised to make that claim.
“Financially incentivised”? As in, the people who make a living creating original art? The people whose work is being taken without compensation and fed into a mindless program to plagiarise their work? Those bastards?
Artists aren’t some rich elite that you are winning one over on here. They are individuals who have been told for years that ‘exposure’ is the best payment. They are people, not companies. They have worked hard to develop their skills.
Their ‘financial incentive’ is wanting to be paid for their hard work? Fuck those guys right?
This is akin to mathematicians saying fuck calculators.
Calculator: 2+2=4
AI: 2+2={4,5,13,52,....}
AI techbros: Wassa problem? It's givin u an answer, innit? Just as good as a calculaduh.
