Honestly I'm not sure what else I can add that's already been added.

The problem with AI Generated Assets as I would prefer to call them is a pandora's box that, much like when photoshop came out back in it's early days put a lot of digital artists in this strange position. I am against it in it's current state because unlike photoshop it's designed to gather whatever images or sound bytes it can find on the internet at large and meshes it into whatever the user wants, that's where it becomes a problem concerning plagiarism.

I've heard some arguments for it, but only few are actually reasonable and to be honest, it's not worth going into too deeply at this point (Plus as I'm writing this for  IDK how many times now don't have all my notes or prior discussions from other places on had to put it all in detail, but could potentially locate previous points I've heard of if asked when I'm not trying to force myself to remember what came up in those talks).

The way I look at it eventually people are going to tire of what Ai can do on it's own and then that will likely allow the digital artists to remain as they are without too much trouble. I'm just hoping all the legal shit gets sorted out with it and given the ongoing WGA and  SAG-ATFRA strikes happening in part of the fact that many people who are also working in those industries have issue with how it's being used when they're barely making anything from the corporations they work for. (there's an article that I wanted to post from AP news to cite this but since I can't you may have to google this to find the article) Hoepfully, that will at least motivate law makers to do something about it besides just a bunch of tech giants warning of a Ai Crisis or calling for regulation. But who knows.
