No, i'm pretty sure im also against AI. Im against artist not being paid for their work and being replaced by subpar machine learning regurgitating their art without any sense

Capitalism is the economic model where the wealth created by the workers is owned by the people o whom the tools and resources required to created said wealth and not the workers who put in the work to create it.

Here is a comic that might help you understand:

What did you tell that man just now?|I told him to work faster!| How much do you pay him?| $25,00 a day...| Where do you get the money to pay him?| I sell products| Who makes the products?| He does...| How many products does he make in one day?| $100,00 worth.| The instead of you paying him... he is paying you $75,00 a day to tell him to work faster!| HUH?| But the machine belong to me!| How did you get the machines?| I sold products and bought them| ...And who made those products?| Shut up... He might hear you!|

You're literally talking about capitalism fucking over the artist here. There no reason the AI can't be helping you do the boring shit in your work faster and why it shouldn't only benifit you directly.

It can also be used to improve your skills as an artist. For example, there's a music theory plugin called Scaler 2 which uses AI. You can run recordings through Scaler and it will spit out the chords and key the songs are in. I've been using it to learn music theory. I'm not sure if any of y'all have tried learning music theory in a formal setting but a lot of teachers are incredibly pretentious, especially if you tell them you're a guitarist or want to make electronic dance music. You could technically use it to write entire songs but those would be boring and lifeless.

yeah its useful to do dumb boring work. not offload the entire creative process to it. Its like saying photoshop ruined photography. Rather I would argue it created an entire sub-genre of photos.

We shouldnt lose the tool because of other tools trying to yuck our yum.

that use for llms was cooked up by capitalism

it could very well be just another tool to assist artists

Also what's inherently wrong with art being generated by a computer? Not every piece of art made by a human is this unique, incredibly creative never before seen thing nor it needs to be as such, in fact most human made art is just rehashing of previous things.
