Just realized the AI art tool I bought actually ripped off a friend's style
I paid $60 for a 'unique' style pack, then saw it spit out images that looked exactly like my buddy's work from his Philly gallery show. Anyone else get tricked by a 'new' AI style that was just stolen?

Wait is it really stolen though? AI learns from lots of stuff. Your friend's style might just be in the mix. These tools don't copy one person exactly. Maybe it just looks similar. Not sure it's a big deal.

That Philly gallery show is a specific event. Did the style pack mention being trained on local artists or was it sold as completely original? The legal gray area is one thing, but selling a specific person's style without credit feels wrong.
