I’m not sure the situation is so simple. To steal art one has to breach copyright. If a model is trained on data that does not breach copyright then nothing was stolen. So long as the dataset was lawful then to me it is just another tool humans can use to make creative and interesting, thought provoking works with.
We can get into more creative models like ones trained on physics that are then used to create intricate and organic structures. Would that also be theft?
Your final statement is problematic, particularly towards really anything else. We should be clear about unlawful uses or what I would consider inhuman uses aka uses that remove humanity from humanity and uses that are indeed creative or even beneficial for humanity.
We shouldn’t just start lumping things together and assuming it’s all bad like children or people lacking the mental capacity to understand reality actually isn’t so simple and nearly any regard.
