There's no major difference between someone creating art with a computer or with a paint bush.

Good thing that this isn't what the argument has ever been about, then. This is the exact same tactic that "pro-lifers" use to reframe the argument about abortion and women's rights.

It's always been about the fact that the people who create the art used to train the AI aren't compensated for their work. The criticisms of the objective quality of Gen AI have always been about how people support the orphan crushing machine for such low quality garbage, and the OP isn't even about that.

Imagine if the Yankees started using a modified howitzer and fired their pitchers, and somebody said that they'd rather watch 8 year old kids play baseball than a game with the Yankees. That's what OP is talking about. AI bros and people like you would be arguing that the howitzer is the same as any other pitcher and that they just hate change.
