Personally I haven't seen any of that, just a lot of people butthurt (or scared for their livelyhood) that others can now make pictures with little effort.

Also some of these generated pics are the result of hundreds of trial-and-error attempts changing up the dozens of parameters and running multiple pieces of software in sequence to get the AI to spit out the wanted result.

The "Anti-AI" crowd tends to be completely ignorant on how this stuff actually works.

And some people have turned this AI stuff into their hobby, so they get defensive when you shit on them ("calling them out" as you word it)

Yeah, finding the right prompt is hard work that requires years of training ๐Ÿคก

Yeah, misconstruing my comment in one sentence and slapping on a clown emoji thinking that is a genious comeback is hard work that requires years of training

Maybe it does, and that's why they all suck right now lol

It's fine to have AI stuff as a hobby but I'm sorry; AI generated art has no business in an art gallery with human art.

Rent/host your own spaces, open your own galleries, hold your own events. No one is saying that people can't engage with AI art. What they're saying is that the effort to legitimize AI art as an equal to human art is incredibly damaging and cancerous.
