Go on then, explain how they were exaggerating their claims...

First off all I have to do is prove that AI use in and of itself is not nazi-esque, or even any form of authoritarian. Which seriously. Explain that one to me, break it down as if I were 5.

Except none of that was an exaggeration. AI art is a massive waste of energy we need to conserve, wastes ground water, and screws over artists. Newsome platforms horrible people, has a crap human rights record, and doesn't deserve the adulation. Look 'em up.

It 100% is exaggerated. I already looked it up, also as far as the artists go: Skill issue, in fact since we drew on cave walls to today, art has never been a solid way to earn a living, at least its just staying consistant.

"Artists have always been undervalued and plagiarized! I'm just continuing the tradition!" might not be the moral high ground you're looking for.

Sweetie they've been plagiarized for a long time, go to art school and they teach you how to paint like the masters did, ergo plagerizing their style.

Missing the point by a couple miles there...
