Quite possibly the most hypocritical thing I've ever seen.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.
AI generated images are not, and should not be considered copyright able, and they don't own the right to the image they generated, as I understand it.
Otherwise, Midjourney are certainly very welcome to start paying royalties to certain popular celebrities whose images they are profiting off of. You can't have it both ways.
Lol, after both steal every image on the internet.
No wonder the images look similar.
Have you seen those images of a bunch of people overlaid on each other so that shared features become clear and outliers become fuzzy. The result is an average human but it doesn't actually look like anyone in particular because it's a human with no striving feature or bold choice. Thats why AI look the same, they all have the same dull parts of real art but none of the interesting bits.
Only if your prompts are boring and dull. The more details I add to my prompts, the more unique of a look I can achieve.
Yes, some people don't notice the creative void in AI because they are themselves hollow humunculuses. They crawl at the edge of the human fire of creation and gather stray embers that hit the dead sands they occupy. Once in a while they find an ember with some faded glow left and they hold it up and say "The more details I add to my prompts, the more unique of a look I can achieve."
I pity them because they will never understand true warmth.
Agree and disagree. You actually can get proper art out of those systems, also novelty, but it usually involves leading the AI onto a gradient you can't reach with mere text prompts. It's kinda like with riding horses: As a beginner, the horse will judge you an idiot and follow the horse in front of it and not your commands. You have to have both the intention and the skill to lead the horse onto an untrodden path.
Or, differently put: If a sketch can be art then so can a piece that the AI generated from it, one that was declared adequate by the sketch maker. "Here, machine", said the human, "I have done my part, I have infused these bits with life, now you do the boring stuff and polish it".
I don't know what part of my answer full of contempt made you think that I am open to the standard tech bro babble?
I think you are disgusting people and charlatans desperately trying to pretend that you know what art is. Is that a clearer response for you. The first response was a bit too creative so I understand why you wouldn't understand it.
They care about Ownership of data?
