NO AI

Dribbble is one of the sites AI programs pull from to generate plagiarized images.

"It's just a tool".

It's an image generator that runs on artwork it doesn't have permission to use. Plus, none of them are selling their product as a tool for artists. Their whole pitch is that anyone can use it and get good results without post-production work. It generates this work faster and cheaper than artists, and requires no skill. It is the robotic arm on the assembly line. It is meant to replace artists.

But will it? That depends on two things. 1) Will sites like dribbble fight back by upholding copyright laws to protect original creators? 2) Will there actually be a market for microwaved art?

All remains to be seen.
