https://twitch.tv/pikat Generative AI seems like an amazing tool for artists, so it might come as a surprise to some people that most artists dont seem to like it. (If you’re an artist, this is probably not a surprise). I’ll try to explain why that is, and why EVEN IF generative AI was completely ethical, there might still be some problems with it.
