Well that’s what’s currently happening in the art scene since the advent of stable diffusion. The folks complaining are… how can I put it? Not the most rational bunch. At first, they decided that it was illegal to copy an artist’s style and that was what they took issue with. How ridiculous is that? Those idiots learned their style from somewhere too. But now they just keep moving the goal posts.

I’m a working artist— a concert lighting designer, specifically. I don’t flip out when a DJ chooses to use Lightkey to automate what I do for a living instead of choosing my services, and Followspot Operators don’t flip out when I choose to use an automated light with a ground control hand controller instead of their services either. Those aren’t the types of clients either of us would enjoy working for anyway. I am well within my rights to expect the same sort of self-awareness from the rest of the art scene. If they don’t choose to cultivate that self-awareness and learn the new tools, then they most definitely deserve to be called idiots.
