These AI companies don't provide a "tool" for artists, they build a "replacement" for artists. No wonder, because the number of creatives is only a tiny fraction compared to the number of end customers who should no longer need creatives. Otherwise, double-digit billion investments by Google, Microsoft and Elon Musk would not make sense either! It's time for everyone to realize this and stop feeding these tools with images and training data. Have a look at this great discussion from Steven Zapata https://youtu.be/tjSxFAGP9Ss
