Are you against records? Because the technology to record songs and play them back at your leisure killed an entire industry of live performers / instrumentalists?
The call for live music drastically shrank when it became trivial for any business or residence to play music on command.
Are you against automatic language translation? I can positively guarantee that the training data that they used to be able to create significantly better translation models was not authorized for that purpose.
The entire translator industry has been steadily shrinking ever since the invention of automatic language translation.
Etc etc etc.
There's obviously two aspects of this complex social issue right now.
1. Whether or not the usage of publicly available media as training data is legal/ethical.
2. Whether or not the output of these types of generative systems (even if they're trained on "ethical" training data) which may result in the displacement of many jobs is legal/ethical.
I'm neither for nor against AI (LLM, diffusion, video, etc), but if you are going to take a stance, then you have to be consistent in your view.
You don't get to cherry pick - I don't want to see you using chatGPT, copilot, stable diffusion, DALL-E, midjourney, sora, etc.
It's weird that a call for generative AI to be more equitable towards the people whose creative work powers it is being interpreted as somehow being against tech, against AI, or that I think technological advancement should never make jobs obsolete.
