Beware of an incoming hot take - I don’t see the concept of training AI on published works as much different than a human learning from published works as long as they both go on to make their own original works.

The fact that this is considered a "hot take" is depressing.

It’s much less of a hot take for people in the tech community, but it is for many artists and creatives who feel threatened by AI’s potential to devalue what they’ve dedicated their lives to.

They should have felt threatened by the sheer weight of an incredibly oversaturated industry, sabotaging itself with a system that rewards the lucky and punishes 99.99% of the people that try to get into it. Everybody else who "made it" are practicing survivorship bias to justify their career choices.

Leaps in AI technology was just another barbell added to the pile.
