there’s the people who hate it bc they have petit-bourgueois leanings and think at the stuff as “stealing content” and “copyrighted material” like artist people, “code monkeys” or writers
and there’s the people that hate it because it’s an obvious grift made to siphon resources and “try” to be a big replacement for proles, and a huge wasteful technology that dries water sources and rises electricity bills with their data centers
yeah, it’s kinda useful to make a drawing, fill blank space in a document, or being a dumb assistant who hallucinates anything to pretend that it knows stuff
Those aren’t petit bourgeois tendencies, those are pre-capitalist artisanal tendencies.
Except for the copyright aspect, but independent artists rarely clamour about their “copyrights”, as their issue is more about how their work, whether copyrighted or not, is getting fed into a capitalist black hole machine designed to replace workers to benefit no one but a few capitalists.
Most within the art world could care less if someone took the time to learn their style one to one by studying their work. That’s the entire point of art to a degree, as the end product is still an expression of labour value. Something that can’t be said about GenAI
