I - Background
Recently another AI piece 
broke 140k likes after posting on X (formerly Twitter) . Like every piece of AI that gets attention there, it attracts tons of Sneed from X (formerly Twitter) artists 
and their orbiters.

You can see a lot of 
in the comments. But even more hate from the quote repost (formerly quote retweet) of artist having fun dunking on AI art by redrawing it in their style.
Some are pretty good gems
The biggest one is this 
] got over 400k like and "ratio" the frick out the AI art (which as you can see heavily references the ai art and some even claim it is traced)
instead of taking the W for the real human bean artist, it devolved into another drama.
II - The ethics in Anti-AI posting
Because of how "unethical" the post is, the anti-Ai art council deemed it as bad as AI art for legitimatising AI by tracing/referencing.
note some differences that some people hate it because of tracing, and some hate it for only referencing or taking inspiration from AI, and the purity spiral continues.
embarrassing, these people 
hate AI so much they will hound you for the art that you draw and paint with your own hand
III - Referencing AI
Now that the drama above has brought the spotlight to the artists who use AI for references let's see how these people think
You will see this smug fricker everywhere in any AI debacle. So anyway "Good artists copy, Great artists steal"-Me.

this tard can't fathom that a lot of "real arts" over the years are from artists who just want to draw beautiful things in their own way, the act of drawing makes them happy that's why there are many people who like copying photograph with various style. The AI admittedly in his own words creates beautiful compositions that other artists like and copy. The master artists who put out original compositions would still pump out their work in their way because they like it so nothing is lost really.
more sneed coming
Bonus drama
My man Julian Casablancas 
just got hounded by a bunch of Instagram c*nts for using a sick AI art for the album cover

Unpopular opinion:
Giving ai dots and telling it to do curves/fills/gradients is the same as giving it 3 or so prompts

They're gatekeepers. None have any real artistic talent and just watched 9000 hours of sexy Indian dude photoshop tutorials on how to steal actual artists styles. They're mad because ai let's people do that better and faster but they'd have to learn a new skillset. So instead they try to prevent ai from being allowed to compete with them.

Not a one of these people has their own unique style, they just remixed other more successful artists' work (without credit or royalties, mind) to "create" their style.
They're just salty AI does it better than they do.

lmfao you're a funny one. Not sure if I should ban you or just keep you here for the amusement.
There's a certain hierarchy here, as my admin badge should have keyed you in on, and you went and mocked me. Do you know how much power I have? I'm not just the admin of a group with over 50k members, I've got a network of admins that are loyal to me alone and their power spans all of Leftbook. I'm the veritable champion online, and if you don't do what I say... why don't you message some group members and find out?
The only reason you're not banned yet is that I wanted to give you some time to read this first... to know how deep the shit you're in is.
Don't mock my community. Don't mock Harry Potter fans or those winning with Autism. You want another chance? Say you understand and you apologize, and say you realize you've been a stupid frick in a beautiful place.
