DeviantArt upsets artists with its new AI art generator, DreamUp

Looking at the comment section it seems that people struggle to understand how it works and thinks it is literally copying parts of people's images.

Educating people about such a technical topic seems very difficult especially since people get emotional of their work being used.

The big problem here is that it trains the artists style and allows third parties to create art in their style without effort. This is especially bad for artists with really distinct style as now hundreds of copycats can come and steal the previously unique style.
