As an artist, I already realized that the war is lost, without a fight. There is no way to stop the removal of human labor. At first, A.I. tools will need supervision and optimization, but soon they will do this by themselves. I moved all of my art related work into a real medium. If someone in the future finds value of owning an actual art, I will provide.

If people are happy with metaverse A.I. generated images, projected in their minds, so be it. It is over. The rest is just an echo of human civilization. Transhumanistic clones are coming to town:)

The war is not lost. The goal isn't to try to force people to never be able to use AI to generate art, but to force them to only use input that they gave permission to use.

AI replacing artists functionally is just the surface fear. The real problem is using AI as an automated method of copyright laundering. There's only so much hand waving one can do to excuse dumping tons of art that you didn't make into a program and transform it into similar art and pretend like you own it. People like to pretend that it's like a person learning and replicating a style, but it's not. It's a computer program and it's automated. That the process is similar is immaterial.

I'm thinking the same way, plein air painting is a nice activity. You get something nothing can take away from you, any kind of mark you make with your own body is yours. At least at the moment, using prompt- or inpainting-based tools feels like talking through Microsoft Sam (voice synth).
