I think we are facing a really big technological inflection point, somewhat akin to the industrial revolution, which ultimately affected millions of jobs. I was talking to a professor of game design last night, and he believe the legal issues around AI learning models will be resolved relatively soon. I note that Adobe and Getty, for example, have released good quality image generators using the art in their massive stock libraries. From their comments, they are 100% certain they have the legal right to use the images in this way. OpenAI are soon adding an "opt out" feature to allow you to exclude your images from their model. These issues will be resolved. As far as the quandry over lost jobs, I'm sure an illustrator using these tools is going to do a much better job than someone with little artistic ability using these tools. Same with writers. Maybe I'm a little naive, but I'm hoping we can have a co-operative existence with the machines!</blockquote>
