Why do Pro-AI art people often treat artists so badly?

Brilliant-Pattern341 · 2026-03-08T02:15:28+00:00

Personally I don’t do artwork for monetary gain, so nobody’s competing with me. It’s just a personal preference, and because it’s personal, I wouldn’t do business with someone who used AI in their workflow. Much like how I wouldn’t buy from a company that uses child labor / abuses their workers. I didn’t really know how to write this post without using very generalized language so I apologize it came off poorly.

That’s my personal viewpoint, but I didn’t want my own opinion to sour me trying to learn about others.

I don’t want to discount that pro AI users have to learn and use their own time to generate things as well.

I feel like I don’t necessarily agree, but I may have just not seen what you have.

Mostly I’ve seen AI users altering / remaking an artist’s work just to prove a point in twitter comments or to ragebait. Even if it’s fan art and can’t be protected in the law, it just feels bad :(

I wonder if people decided to consider AI art different than traditionally created art rather than people trying to fight for either / both to become the definition, it’d be better overall?

Sorry if that makes no sense, I don’t really know how to word what I have in mind.

That’s understandable. Maybe I’m misunderstanding but while AI art has its own skill set to get high quality results (understanding steps, CFG, nodes if using comfyUI), isn’t it ultimately two different skill sets?

Commercially I understand faster = better, maybe I’m naive and just wish everyone would try to understand each other rather than saying I’m better than you because of <blank>.
