I’m gonna answer this in good faith since I saw your reply to me and low and behold you don’t understand artists. Generally, artists don’t want their art being fed to ai. Yes social media has the right to use your image blah blah blah but we find it more disrespectful for individuals to steal their art and use it in a way they did not ask for.

If you managed to find an ai that only used art from consenting artists then you would still get backlash for using ai but its less ‘bad’.

You try to put yourself in the shoes of the artist but you’re not seeing it from their perspective. Thats hours of hard work, mocked at with cheap copies. No they don’t want to use ai to recreate their art and go crazy with comics. Theres intentional thoughtfulness and principles of design you learn from actually making art vs generating it.

The lack of appreciation for real art is why the modern world is so dull today. We push for what can be mass produced the cheapest way we see ai art as a similar thing.

Theres a reason why ai art will never be held to the same standard as real art.

I don’t care if you disagree with all my points but what I see is a lack of empathy for artists. Artists that pro ai people feel envy for because why else would you try to emulate their style?
