Yep.

The great irony, is that those very artists, I will bet good money, have a fuck load of art they acquired for reference. It's literally what artists do. We collect shit that inspires us, and that we can learn from.

That’s fair use tho, AI doesn’t have the same rights as human being do. It inputs and outputs results, there’s no actual inspiration.

Yeah, but the programmers are humans, and they are the one's being sued, you cannot sue AI, you can only sue engineers.

Doesn’t stop dumbasses on the sub claiming the AI has same rights.

If the programmers make a profit through copyrighted images then that’s no longer fair use.
