Interesting way to view AI. A development of the means of production that, in a way, proletarianizes artists.
It makes you think about what our stance on AI's development at lemmygrad should be.

Indeed, the article hits the nail on the head identifying the fact that AI is simply means of automation, and up to now there wasn't a practical way to automate significant aspects of the artistic process, which allows for an artisanal industry to continue to exist. It's also absolutely correct that using things like DRM and copyright laws to try and stop the use of AI is fundamentally misguided. Artists need to realize that their interests now lie with the working majority.
