I am somewhat of an artist myself. I even drew over the "Hanz are we ze baddies" image and made it into my pfp on kiwi farms with MS paint. This whole "AI IS LE BAD... BECAUSE IT IS LITERALLY STEALING ART!!!1111!!!11!!!" is just complete, unadulterated, cope. No, nothing was stolen. Stolen implies scarcity, which does not exist for most things on the internet (not accounting for NFTs which have arguably been around since the hat market opened in tf2.). The image was "copied", with you STILL having it on your hard drive or cloud, put into a data model to train on multiple other people's work, then the said model put out for millions of people to use for FREE. Potentially freeing up an unquantifiable amount of time & money for millions of people on the internet. Do you genuinely want legislation for this? Do you want people to be criminally prosecuted because they "stole" something which wasn't even a scarce recourse in the first place? If you don't like AI, fine, whatever. You can consume human-made art on twitter in peace. But to be this vitriolic? Genuinely, can't you put that passion into your art or whatever other craftsmanship you pursue?
