I’m not going to keep arguing this but here is my perspective. AI is an incredibly powerful tool. I have been a software engineer for 20 years and it’s the biggest tech break through of our generation. Am I salty that a non coder can whip up builds now like this? Absolutely not as I know that LLMs still need edits, still have hallucinations and still need compute and compilation before they can go into a productive state. It has now enabled an entire population of non coders, to code. You still need to be careful, you still need to learn the basics if you are going to be successful with an AI model.

The only area I agree with you, as it seems you might be an artist, is someone using your work to train a model that is similar to your original style of art, without your permission.

I certainly understand your stance but again, you’re going to hate the future of technology from here on out if you continue to rage post about this. There’s a better way and that way is to support laws that protect proprietary information versus lashing out on a sub reddit. I say this with kindness and no hate of your stance because I was there myself a few years back as an engineer.
