/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Ok, it is time to reach a consensus within the real artist community of /ic/ as to which is going to be the official position regarding A.I, and what can actually be done about it, if we play our cards right this can actually end up being a profitable position for us.
First of all, lets make this clear for anyone that didn't already get it; Companies pushing A.I are actively trying to get away with not including artists in the repartition of the massive cake that A.I art is going to be. If they could had done decent models using purely free material they would had done it.
Don't fall for the "it's not coping it's learning" meme, it is not a person, it is a machine, it is weak ass semantics to try to circumvent the need to recognize that without the active participation of artists, both with their already existing work and their prompting, they would have nothing compared to what they have now...
