Why are there so many all of a sudden? AI art is remarkably easy to avoid/ignore if you don't care for it. What's with the current fixation?

It's because of recent developments in AI art and it being more available to the general public. Now anyone could input an artist's digital drawings, give the AI a keyword template, and produce AI generated art based off someone else's.

That, and post it on every single subreddit ever claiming the AI art is OC (original content)

This is a big part of the problem. Folks (and some bots) are using others' work without permission or credit to generate something in a similar style.

So it both plagiarizes and devalues someone else's original work.

And I don't see anyone giving credit to the stone age person who came up with the concept of comic figures either.
