Artists don't own their styles, so it's interesting to see them fight to protect them.
The only thing that makes anything valuable is that someone wants it, or at least wants it to exist. Nothing has intrinsic value because value itself is a human construction. This necessarily includes art.
Artists should own their styles, but only in combination with their name. Forgery has always been a problem, but it's obviously a lot more accessible thanks to AI. As a hobbyist artist myself, I don't see monetary value as the main problem, but rather misrepresentation. Feel free to copy my style, but don't attribute your art to me — AI generated or otherwise.
That being said, I'm super excited about this evolution of technology.
Maybe I'm missing something here but isn't Disney a great example of a style having ownership? One that Disney aggressively defend too. Difference being an individual person doesn't have the resources of all of Disney so they can't do much to defend their art... idk i'm rambling.
