 The problem with AI versus human creators is that a human creator can boost their influences or things they're a fans of consuming, like Kurt Cobain with Daniel Johnson or Mudhoney, or Taylor Swift having Paramore on the eras tour. There are countless examples in different forms. Me referencing Red Plenty recently. Sometimes, but not always, art is complicated, and I don't think an artist of any kind is at all obligated to list their references or explain. My principle problem with AI is that it's like a human creator but always without tribute or references to the things that influenced it. Also it's a commercial, derivative, use of work(s) other people spent time making, without even meagre recompense. It'd be bad form if a person did it and worse if a business did it. I think it will force people to up their game though, which is good.
