Can anyone explain the context? Nad something happened recently?
Chatgpt got really good at generating images and a lot of more people are testing it and some people are salty about it.
No, some asshole generated a fake cease and desist letter from Ghibli to try to start some drama.
Even tried to act like some kind of genAI martyr ready to sacrifice himself for the good of AI...
First time I hear about that, meanwhile even my wife that is normiecore saw guides on how to use chatgpt to generate images on Instagram and asked me to install chatgpt in her phone.

What the fuck is normiecore?
And your wife isn't creating anything using ChatGPT. It's hallucinating with no actual intelligence or creativity that's trained off actual creative works. If your wife wants to create art, then she needs to pick a medium and get practicing.
It's like hardcore except not that, and also vaguely insulting towards their wife (or at least I've never seen anyone write the word "normie" without it being patronizing).
The precipitating factor seems to Ghibli where some dude who draws for a living said ai drawing lacked soul, more or less. Then a bunch of people who very likely pirated the first guy's movies leapt to his defense saying yeah only humans can make art because we are unique in our ability to duplicate information from our environment but with imagined changes. If an ai takes data from it's environment, duplicates it and adapts it to it's current need that's stealing good solid union work.
Or something.
Soon it's going to be an economic thing because if you can get "good enough" at 1/1000 the price after an up front fee...all those folks who do generic voice work (soldier #3) or art work in games are gonna be out of a job. Sadly it's not enough of an industry to impact the broader economy so they will just be completely boned until automation finds a way to get rid of a much more significant fraction of the labor force. If we can get to great depression levels that might be enough.
Don't think he drew for a living but drew for a fortune 🤣
