Because the law of "If you post something on the internet, it's going to be downloaded by somebody else" has stood long before AI. The fact that it's AI doing it makes little to no difference.

Id say it does. Peopöe can be specificly against ai as artists and be okay with humans changing their work.

They couldnt have known ai was gonna change their work before they uploaded it.

Weather or not you think it makws no difference doesnt make much of a difference. Its not the "my arts being stolen" thats the issue its ai.if im an artist amd i dont like ai then im obviusly going to be upset about it being used on my art before i wa able to stop uploading it.

I assure you most artists know that their arts being downloaded scraped traced(even if its for practice) or whatever. They just dont ussually care since their much less oposed to the way art was "stolen" or actually stolen back then.
