@alessandro@cosocial.ca The proliferation of "AI" art *did* take something away from the original creation.
And that's why the analogy with unauthorized duplication is invalid.
(This runs parallel to my other argument, I guess. Along the way in that one, I found some other things, but this is the one for why the copytheft analogy is flawed.) 4/4

@kagan@wandering.shop It took something away from the creator, but if the bulk of the population doesn't see that (or care enough) then I think the point gets diluted - like how the Monopoly board game was a co-opting of an explicitly political concept twisted to become capitalist propaganda. If I go around yelling at people to stop playing Monopoly because it's stolen content that undermines the game's original message, they'll lok at me like I'm some kind of zealot and walk away. @leeloo@c.im @astronomerritt@hachyderm.io
