Hey there, sometimes I see people say that AI art is stealing real artists' work, but I also saw someone say that AI doesn't steal anything, does anyone know for sure? Also here's a twitter thread by Marxist twitter user 'Professional hog groomer' talking about AI art: https://x.com/bidetmarxman/status/1905354832774324356

The question of AI art within China is far murkier. There seems to be some hesitation. For example, there was a recent law passed that stated AI art must be labeled as such. I don’t think they would make an effort to enforce disclosure of AI art being AI art if it were so innocent.

Greatly put, I was trying to articulate this view point earlier in this thread and I think this nails my general feelings about it - AI art needs to have distinctions as such, as the potential for harm by passing them off as real is massive.
