I don’t know how to explain to people in any more clear ways that AI Art is inherently bad because it is not the source of its own creation, and in order to create it will always have to take from others. It’s capitalism as a medium...it will build on the labor of all without giving back.  The only way it could be ethical is if it was always using images the original developer created themselves, or was given/purchased with the rights to reproduce. At no other point is it ever ethically using it’s materials.
