I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.
Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art
Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos
Writers use it to illustrate their articles
And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.
None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.
Collaborate ffs.
Stop it.

So they're actually not anti-AI art. They're anti AI-art in their field, because they (rightly) percieve it as direct competition.
But if a visual artist uses it for music, how can he sleep soundly and claim a musician using it for visual arts is inethical?
That's just slandering competition tooth and nail, all the while proving it's good enough by using it yourself. Not an ethical stance.
I think maybe you misread?
