Just like those artists have benefited from the unpaid effort of their ancestors who invented fire. Please let's stop acting as if contributing to civilization is some kind of horrible injustice.

If you make a picture and someone steals it, okay that's not fair. If you make a picture and someone makes a copy, also not fair. But if you and million others make pictures, and someone else looks at them and learns how to make their own pictures... that's basically how people were doing it since ever. Except now this process can also be automated.

Every artist who never studied the art of others, and invented their own style from scratch, has a right to complain, of course.
