Does it not belong to the people? The meaning of that saying is a shitty analogy for this. You're entitled to the sweat of your brow, but not more from a society, and if you use free infrastructure of the commons to share your work, it belongs to the commons

And what free infrastructure would that be? Social media is privately run, as are websites. Art posted online largely falls under the category of advertising, as artists are advertising their services for commission purposes.

AI bros say that image generators have democratized art. Do you know what actually democratized art? The pencil. The chisel and slate. The idea that taking the effort of other people and using it for your own convenience without giving them proper credit isn't democracy or fair use. It's corporate middle management. People simply don't want to put in the effort to learn a valuable skill, and they don't want to pay for it either, but they still want the reward for said effort. It's like expecting your friend to fix your computer for free because they work in IT.
