Compelling arguments, but take a moment to consider where the information for the final AI render is coming from and how it was gathered. The internet has become a vast source of data for AI. Every artistic image uploaded and every photograph posted has become data-mined to composite a final AI render on verbal command, which means your final image is a repository of stolen data bits. You may argue that the input might be infinitesimal and no one will recognize their data, but in an age where internet users are very anal about security, there should be guardrails on how AI data is farmed. There is no compensation for how your data is used. In Poser, you pay vendors for license use of materials, morphs, and content. You are allowed to create whatever scene you want, but you are restricted in how you share the components of your creation. There are no guarantees with AI; you compose your image, create a final render, upload it to the internet, and refeed the AI monster with fresh data with no compensation.
I am seeing many content makers restricting the use of their models for AI data mining. Are you telling me that you would totally disregard the licensing terms of a vendor just to improve an image through AI? Until regulations clearly specifiy when and how AI implementation can be permitted, I would tread carefully how you use that AI knowledge.
