re: #338 jaunte

I think the point Ghost made about who owns and operates the program is probably the most salient. If artists can privately purchase and operate the system that scrapes and recombines, they might be creating collages, but it appears that AI ‘art’ is something no artist will be able to operate for themselves. It may be a stalking horse for some other purpose, as ‘ride-sharing’ was used to eliminate taxi companies and make way for the ever-imminent robot taxi.

You can run your own in house ai and train it on your own dataset and give it your own constraints(or not). You can run a LLM on a relatively high end consumer pc with a high end gpu.
