Every artist that ever saw another person’s art is “using stolen assets” then. Why is training a meat neural network more valid?

That’s exactly the point. Sometimes you shouldn’t even try to do certain things.

This is some luddite logic. If man were meant to fly God would have gave us wings.

It does empower little guys. It empowers everybody, for good or ill. That’s a what a tool is. I can hammer a nail, I can hammer a nail that shouldn’t be there, or I can hammer a person in the face. Is any of that the hammer’s fault?

Dragging a mouse isn’t making art. Dragging a live mouse could be, PETA wouldn’t like it though.

When people have to use their skills to make a living, though, then there’s a problem.

Progress leaves many professions behind. It’s lamentable, but a price worth paying.
