In the ideal world yes. IP is a fuck but under a capitalist system I still think artists should be able to sell their work and not have it used by machine learning programs to undercut them without their consent. For industry stuff? I don’t really care but I think individual independent artists having some IP control under this absurd system is slightly better than just fucking them all over entirely.
Edit: the copyrighting words, concepts, and techniques shit has to stop though
Oh I think I misunderstood the person I was replying to, I thought they were referring to Chinese IP theft in terms of industry stuff. I agree that art is a different story.

Oh if China is using “AI” to steal secrets, tech, IP, what have you, then uncritical support lol
If you misuse technology to the degree our shitty system has it should be stolen on that principle alone.
If I bought a car solely for the purpose of driving it through a playground to smush children into jelly I deserve to have my car stolen.
