I generally agree with Jim Lee's take on generative AI: Link to article
"We have to figure out a way to live in a world where it exists, and the source material from which it derives its content is properly credited and compensated.
But even if it were accepted and someone were going to pay me to use an AI engine to create work, I just wouldn't do it.
I don't create art just so I can have something to get paid for."
Even commissions can interfere with artistic growth and absolutely with personal vision. Look how many Bernini commissions were just portraits or of specific religious subjects for a church. Magnificent work, yes. But I wonder what he could have created if a commissioner just let him do his thing.
Yes, the specific ones pay the bills, but the most fun ones I've been given a wide license. "Listen to this song, and draw what you see" was a favorite. The guy who commissioned has a spectacular collection of art on that theme.
As I noted in the OP, AI can be used 100% ethically, there's just a number of people who really don't want to.
