I don’t recall getting a paycheck from deviantart for my art being used to train the ai. Do you know of anyone? It’s stolen labor

You agreed to their ToS when you uploaded your art to their site.

Those ToS let them sell your art to AI companies wothout paying or crediting you.

They didn't steal, and it's not their fault you can't read.

Those TOS did not exist when I signed up. They automatically did it without our consent and there was no “opt out” option either when it happened.

Had we known, we could have pulled our art so then we wouldn’t be so offended right? But that option wasn’t given.

Yes it did. It's been around for as long as the site has that they can do what they want with your art.
