AI is truly fucking over all kinds of creators and artists. Not really new forms of theft and fraud, but at scale and speed previously unimaginable, with relative ease. Just saw an up and coming musician have all their songs copied, run through ai to remix, batch uploaded to streaming sites, copyright applied and:
Boom, they were flagged and lost the income on their streaming. It was corrected, but fucking Meta took down their post about it for "violating community standards".

@jack_daniel My husband is an extremely talented illustrator and was contracted by Disney to produce work for one of their movie franchises. He would submit countless versions and ideas, but they only paid for one. However, even to this day, all his work that Disney did not approve can be seen in countless products today. And yes he had provisions written in all the submissions, but they do not care.
@blakefox That is truly awful, and also sadly common.
