That’s absolutely untrue. They are angry about corporations stealing their artistic innovation and using it for profit and without credit. They trained for years to develop style, they made it their livelihoods. UBI isn’t the issue. They should be getting royalties. The computers didn’t generate these ideas.

by that logic most artists need to give royalties to other artists they copied to learn from. no artists is created in a vacuum. its pure fear and money, end of. if you create art and love it, and people love your art too, why would you care so much what a robot does? I love to draw and couldnt care less about ai art, no matter how good it gets. I also see people saying this is a tool and have to say it is not. A tool is what you use to help you, this pretty much replaces the doing entirely. an artist doesnt create just for the final result, its also about the process. I love to see my progress over time, what Im capable of. I'll always follow and appreciate art from my favorite artists but I also think its so silly how some of them are waging this war against ai.

A.i. isn’t creating or inventing a style, it’s mimicking a style that was R&D’d by an artist. That cost time and money and should be compensated.

When A.I. combines styles in ways that haven't been done before I'd say it is creating a new style.

artists should use the A.I. to make their art better instead of complaining. Whether they complain or not people will still use A.I.

I can understand when it specifically mimics an artist exactly but when they use a ton of different sources, it's no different than what an artist does.

I will disagree with this statement … you’re partly right I think, UBI would make a lot more people not care, but only those who don’t care about their work… and let’s get something straight, NO HUMAN can compete with a Robot. That’s why we need laws in place to protect Humans

Right? It’s the same as every other field pretty much. Tech advances and you have to adapt. It sucks bad, but artists are in no way the only profession that has to deal with this
