We can be ethical about it, ai ethics is important. Currently ai art uses datasets that it has no permission to use. The same company swears not to use copyrighted music in its datasets though.

(Re)invent collective rights management or whatever. This can't go on like this. The United States allowed a company deliberately flout the law to roll back the protections organized labor achieved in a century plus and destroy the livelihood of cab medallion holders as a side hustle, are we going to repeat that? The recording and movie industry has been steadfast on cracking down on what they perceived as theft but the art community was caught unawares by this. As a society we need to stop this until a solution is found. Extend copyright in such a way that this is not legal until a solution is found to compensate the artists. This is extremely urgent.

A better example is the portrait painter trembling at seeing the first example of photography. You can pretty much see at any gallery when the camera changes art.

To me these arguments are by kids and art simpletons.

Art is always changing. As if the only true art is in making marble sculptures of Zeus.
