AI sympathizers really do not appreciate the merit of human thought and effort at all
AI is not the same as human art because human art has a lot of subconscious small touches, and things along the way that make it have some parts of the original person who made it in the piece.
AI anime art has a monotonous style or is prompted to take an existing artists style as well as disrespecting artists by not training the models off of art of people who said yes to it. Something I feel like sours the taste of it immediately.
AI does not think like humans, and is not comperable to real art even with prompting it. If you were to make a take on Star Wars or think of a picture of it it would turn out a bit different, with your own touches and nuances. In AI, it will literally just spit out screenshots.
Take this prompted piece (left) vs. A Dune movie screenshot for example
It does not think the same as humans, it is not art, and the way that it was trained was disrespectful. It spits out exact duplicates of existing works and art styles. It cannot make someone doing original things (prompt an anime girl holding a sock, or a cup of wine overflowing)
It is a defaulting machine
