@martenson@mastodon.world Making it so the unmodified output can't be directly used for profit sounds like a good compromise to me. Artists can still use it as prototypes, inspiration or whatever and transform it into parts of their own work. At the same time, the bare AI-generated stuff would not be copyrightable, disincentivizing companies from cutting out the artists completely.

@martenson@mastodon.world Photographers feared they would become obsolete when anybody can buy a cheap camera, Photoshop was once seen as a threat to traditional artists and music labels feared that cassettes would be the death of commercial music. None of that happened. They all became tools in a new generation's toolbox. And as you said, "AI" doesn't have much personality. That's good. It means "AI" needs to be combined with an artist's personality to make something good while the rest sinks to the bottom.
