I tried to find some information about the incident in which #DragonCon removed the AI “artist” from their Artist Alley with police assistance, since the vendor refused to leave. Unfortunately, almost everyone discussing it is a YouTube “content creator,” and they’re all siding with the “artist.”
To me, it seems many who are supportive of AI are jealous of others’ skills and believe they should have access to them, without having to spend the time practicing art.
