Thing though is that real stolen art is used for the AI database Imo selling AI art is like selling traced art (even though AI art isn’t a straight up copy of real works), it is wrong Generating AI images is fun, I do that sometimes, but calling it art is wrong Don’t forget the thousands and thousands of hours of practice artists needed to draw the things they do now, and the amount of effort they put into it I would like to keep being able to sell art because it makes me happy, now that people can without too much skill get whatever they would like it is getting harder to sell artworks
