AI models work in the same way that humans do, they ingest, categorise and synthesise new outputs. Human artists do the same, just slower and to a lower quality. Cry baby luddites cowering before the future.
AI models don't do anything different to human artists. Human artists synthesise all they have seen into new works, this is exactly what AI models do. The "yes" voters are just protectionist luddites cowering before progress.
