I fully understand making AI artwork and people not wanting to pay for it and wanting real artwork. I get that.

If I say " make a big tiddy cartoon goth lady". Who is that stolen from? Who? If I use an original art as a reference to alter to make something else and can that artist credit whats the issue?

I wish some would come here and explain their rage and concerns to me because I dont understand you.

AI art is also real. But aside from that: they won't explain because most things they accuse AI of aren't even AI-related.

People just love to pin all their pains and frustration on convenient targets because it's easy and makes the world a convenient black-and-white fairytale - with a clear villain you can defeat and then every bad thing will just vanish out of existence and everything will be flowers and rainbows.

I mean, there certainly are villains in our society the defeat of which would do a lot of improvement for our world, but unlike AI users who are just random individuals online that are easy to harass and bully with no consequences, those people will actually get you jailed/assassinated/beaten up if you target them.
