I’ve never understood this argument in a vacuum. Fair use includes education. And people have been getting inspired by art they don’t own a copyright to for ever.
There are lots of other critiques of ai that I do agree with.
Yeah, everything is a remix. I think it all boils down to preferences on copyright and corpos as entities.
It’s easier for me to accept that an inventor gets a 30+ year copyright (or lifelong for that matter) in our current societal setup. I even understand how most things today are a collaboration, so we need bigger entities to hold such copyrights. And this is the point where I personally start seeing the problems.
I feel if we keep this up, art will move towards a l’art pour l’art phase. Mass media will turn into something personally tuned and we’ll be charged a premium for something that was touched by human inspiration. Don’t know if I helped or digressed too much, but these are my worries in the vacuum.

The AI used was likely trained on sets of data without the consent nor compensation of the people whose works were used.

They devs literally addressed that in the comment above
I didn’t take it to mean that the AI was exclusively trained on their own images, but good on them if they are.
