Tbh I have the feeling that the real dystopian parts of this will be the social ones, image generation brrr is really the innocuous part to me. Like imagine Disney automating in-betweening work using patented proprietary methods, outcompeting every other animation studio in the business. I fear the backlash will lead to an expansion of copyright, whereas, as a provisional demand at least, we could be demanding something cooler like basic income.

All that said it's cool to have someone deep in the topic around here.

Yeah, this is exactly what I fear. Disney gets stronger, copyright gets stronger, and individual artists lose out even more.

AI art generation is one of the most comprehensible horrors, but there are plenty which are harder to comprehend and which are more horrific!
