Just because you're not a big company doesn't mean, that that is not stealing.

And yeah, a lot of independent artists works are being scraped and yes, they are struggling, have you ever talked to one?

Have I ever talked to a struggling artist? Because if I had, then I would know they are sad and worried because ai took their booming business of creating textures and now it's difficult to pay the bills? 😀

Artists have always struggled. Whole of human history. I met many artists and I don't think any of them had much money.

But that's beside the point. There is a world of textures ai can be trained on without stealing anything. It's textures.
