    Why not sell it? Pet Rocks were sold.

    Why not claim it’s yours? You wrote the prompt. See Pet Rocks above.

    Because, unlike pet rocks, AI generated art is often based on the work of real people without attribution or permission, let alone compensation.

    Not use it and instead hire a professional? That argument died with photography. Don’t take a photo, hire a painter!

    So what if AI art is low quality. Not every product needs to be art.

    Do you know what solidarity is? Any clue at all?

    Seems like the concept is completely alien to you, so here you go:

      Do you know what solidarity is?

      Do you know what a luddite is?

      The simplest argument, supported by many painters and a section of the public, was that since photography was a mechanical device that involved physical and chemical procedures instead of human hand and spirit, it shouldn’t be considered an art form;

      That a particular AI could have used copywrited work is a completely different argument than what was first stated.

        Do you know what a false equivalence is? If not, just reread your own comment for a fucking perfect example.

        I’m not wasting any more time and effort trying to explain the blindingly obvious to your willfully obtuse ass. Have the day you deserve.

        Yeah, nothing is more bougie than independent artists, most of whom are struggling to make ends meet even WITH a day job… 🙄

          Boo-fucking-hoo they have a “day” job? Wow so do I! It’s called having a job and being working class. Newsflash - you don’t get paid for hobbies, be they drawing or lounging on a couch.

            Yikes. A world without artists would be a dark, dark place. What an incredibly terrible take, unless you’re implying that the only art that counts as labor is when it’s for a corporation, in which case, even worse take, yikes again.

          When have I ever defended corporations, capitalism, or replacing human artwork?

          You motherfuckers are as delusional as the great replacement people.

        I agree, except you’re the one showing solidarity with the bourgeoisie.
        AI is a too of the bourgeoisie to suppress the working class

          No, it is a tool of the commons to subvert the intellectual property regime of the petit bourgeoisie artists.

            It’s a tool created and controlled by the bourgeoisie, primarily designed to and markered for replacing skilled labor.

            The fact you think displaced artists are petite bourgeoisie instead of skilled labor is telling.

            Do you think people are like, born with the ability to make art? Are they some kind of upper class? You can just go learn to draw you know, you don’t need to use AI

        Ah yes, how dare artists make $5 an hour instead of $0 while you pay a corporation a subscription fee instead. That’ll show those lazy artists that they’ve had it too good for too long.

      Copyright and intellectual property is a lie cooked up by capitalists to edge indie creators out of the market.

      True solidarity is making AI tools and freely sharing them with the world. Not all AIs are locked down by corporations.

        Those capitalists support AI because it would allow them to further cut out all creators from the market. If you want solidarity, support artists against the AI being used to replace them.

          Please explain to me how open source AI allows a corporation to cut creators out of the market.
