The folks combine Stable Diffusion, Dreambooth, and Davinci Resolve for their AI powered anime and the results are incredible!

How do you feel about the fact that this derives from the work of countless artists whose works were scraped & mined without their permission or payment?

How is that any different from artists taking inspiration from other artists, or using aspects of other artists' art in their art?

ANNs and human cognition (including imagination) are nothing alike and to compare them is nonsensical to begin with, but I can indulge you with some obvious answers since you insist:
