The copying isn't the problem, so much as it's the reselling, repackaging, environmental issues, etc.

The training in and of it self. Is literally non problematic.

If AI work is then kept public domain, and nonprofit. Then frankly the artists can fuck off and just deal with it. They are losing nothing. At worse someone tries to claim the work as an original and that's just impersonation and it's the same problem AI or not.

They may still bitch about the environmental, electrical and water usage problems tho.
