Art. I'm not judgy against people doing it, but I always see all these people with advanced modification tools and using them to make their art "better", like photoshop contrast tools and color stuff, when to me, if my art is good it's good. I got eighth place in an art contest once, yet I know (without really complaining about it though) that I would've gotten second place if people hadn't put steroids into their sunsets.
What irks me a little is those same artists who use the metaphorical steroids are in the campaign against AI art, and I'm like dude, there are people from whom it would be more fitting to hear complaints from. Say what you want about AI art, I'm not going to severely invalidate the arguments from either side themselves, but considering the actual critics involved, it's at least 90% hypocrisy from the "anti" side, and you'll have seen me having said this since day one.
