I find this to be the real strange bit of the "AI art debate". All the management and publishing are very bearish on AI, even though its legality relies on wide-scale copyright infringement. Actual artists are far more skeptical, begging for copyright to become a de-facto AI ban, even though they're way more likely to infringe copyright than to own it. And then you have the Free Software people - i.e. the people opposed to software copyright entirely - who were the first to actually point out that AI training was infringement and trying to sue over it.
