I'm no tech bro, and so far us artists are the ones actually defending AI because, holy moly, it's just crazy to think people truly believe in Skynet and all this conspiracy theory stuff.

My dad is an artist as well and he loves AI generated images. I will be training one in my own styles myself. It will make my work so much easier.

AI has the possibility to be an amazing tool for artists, but people are already training it on other people's work to copy specific artists so that they and others don't have to pay for commissions. There was even one case of somebody sending a copy of a piece of concept art one of the artists for Genshin Impact was working on on a livestream through an AI tool and then attempting to threaten the artist on stream with copyright violations, claiming that they had created the concept art.
