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.
Some of that ai art is pretty awsome actually.
Art theft is the antithesis of awesome.
What if an artist makes awsome art from pieces of other people's art? Is that awesome or not?
It is, it's playful and meaningful and awsome. It's my favourite kind of art. It's what the biggest artists do. Art works like memes. When you don't let people derive from each other, you suffocate art.
