Anti-AI solidarity

Lime Bar @limebar@mastodon.social
I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.
Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art
Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos
Writers use it to illustrate their articles
And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.
None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.
Collaborate ffs.
Stop it.

Artist spoiler : art is work and work needs pay. We don't have any money. Wanna see your favorite artists make human collabs? Pay them, back them or stfu.
Came here to ask who TF is paying for time to make album cover art.
The one who ordered the work?
Or does the RIAA have a $10 a pop deal with the artists' guild?
How about an artist cooperative? That way they can collaborate and share profits.
