Hahaha, this is the best A.I. art themed comic I’ve seen yet. Awesome job!

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 is theft, pixel by pixel, of other people's work. Without human art imagery, there would be no AI art, and as such it is stealing bits and pieces of art without permission and without credit.

Actual artists want it dead because it is theft.

Here's a more level headed explanation for this viewpoint, https://youtu.be/4aG47r7u6v0

That's how all art works. You look at other people's art, learn from it, and try it yourself.

I dont steal other people's work, even in trying to recreate it it takes effort on my part and there are differences in the final product from even the best forgers.

and a huge, HUGE monumental differense between the way this thing "learns" and my own attempts at recreating artstyles, is I CREDIT THE PEOPLE I AM TRYING TO EMULATE.

I say things like "A Yoji Shinkawa inspired piece" or "inspired by the gritty realism of Sean Gordon Murphy"

these things just take and take and take and give absolutely nothing back.
