What are the ethics of using machine learning (GANs and diffusion models) to change art styles of pictures?

A lot of these machine learning models have been trained on art without their consent.

The entire AI art industry is basically rich megacorps exploiting small artists (who usually don't make much income) to fuel their ever growing profit machines.

Ever heard of open source models? Stable Diffusion was good before they decided to become irrelevant by not open sourcing their models anymore. But the old models (and derivatives of them) are still there.

From the newer ones there's Flux.

And if you want more power to the people, feel free to join AI Horde (for example through HordeNG), a cluster of people hosting AI workers for others, so that everyone has free access to open source text and image generation, regardless of their social status.
