    Replacing amazing creative humans with bland AI generated content is not a good use of AI.

      Ironic since the decrease of human made work (art or software) will decrease the quality or diversity of generative AI itself

      Mostly true, but…

      Replacing clip art, generic filler from Getty images, and other hand-crafted slop with machine-made slop for things like slideshows, YouTube thumbnails, and other applications where the image isn’t meant to convey something actually existing from the primary content, that I think is fine.

      Of course it should be based on free software (such as AGPL) and use only freely provided or public domain inputs.

      Of course it shouldn’t be used to misrepresent its outputs as produced by, authorized, or of people that it is not.

      But what we have right now is an another sort of enclosure of the cultural commons, blended with plagerism-by-another-name. If there are already terms for this sort of misappropriation, I can’t think of them right now.
