Thanks for this article. Sobering.

It's a tad ironic (and hypocritical) that Mr. Allen wants to copyright the prompts he used in software that steals from other artists.

I'm glad artists are fighting back. But part of me thinks that we're trying to shut the barn door after the horse has bolted. And I am concerned about what this will do to us on a more human level. As Karla Ortiz said at the end of the article, art as “a visual conversation between one human and another human.” AI art greatly diminishes the human aspect IMHO.
