I cannot tell you enough how insulting it is for artists to see any use of AI-generated images.
This technology was made from our work, our labour, stolen from us, violating our consent and copyrights. Somehow without any legal consequences, and without any financial compensation made to us, but making billions in profits exploiting us.
I feel rage each time I see an AI-generated image.
Each time it's a reminder of how much people devalue the hard labour of artists and feel entitled to their work for free.
It's disgusting.
