The way some people defend AI generated images reminds me of the way some people defend the act of tracing other people’s art without the artist’s permission and uploading it while claiming they made it.
It’s not ‘art’ ffs. It’s an image. Sure, it may look nice, but it has 0 meaning, thought, or emotion behind it. This is just another scheme by the rich to milk us some more, as it promotes the idea that art is just a pretty image people pay to look at (consoooom). That’s NOT what art is. Art is made by a living being, go pick up a pencil.

Art theft is the antithesis of awesome.

Someone stealing any physical property is likely bad for one or more reasons.
Also, you can’t steal an idea or a concept. Copying digital information doesn’t deprive the creator of the original. Copying isn’t theft.
