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.

I think they are right, and I also think Pandora's box is opened and people wont go back willingly.

Artists can't afford other artists.

have any of the artists lowered their prices to compete with even the locally hostable models?

yeah it's not like the artists need to buy food or afford rent
