Deviantart Dream UP: Is this a bad idea?

What do you think about Deeviantart Dream UP?
It's an art generated by AI.

While i think that's amazing idea, nobody liked this feature.
It become subject of controversy due of fanart being plagiarized and at risk of losing many accounts.
Worse, art generated by AI become weirdly awkward.

What do you think about that feature?

I don't really mind the existence of AI-generated imagery in general. In fact, I've used it quite a bit myself, trying out silly prompts and just having some fun along the way. However, I do quite dislike the term "AI art", because in my opinion, the idea of these randomly generated images being "art" feels like it contradicts the very meaning of the word. To give just one random example, read the very first sentence of the Wikipedia entry on "Art" and see how little it has in common with what we generally call "AI art".

More importantly, I really hate that Deviantart in particular is now hosting AI-generated images and referring to it as "art", because in my opinion, it's just betraying everything the site used to stand for, in addition to spitting into the faces of the entire user base. If I were an artist on Deviantart, I'd sure as hell feel like shit about hosting any of my works on there.
Feel free to visit my website/blog - it's updated rarely, but it looks pretty cool!
For some more light on this issue, it's not the fact that AI image generation itself is a thing on DA that's causing the real backlash; its that every user is opted in by default to allowing anyone to use it to emulate their "style" unless they submit a form that pends human review. That's a fair complaint I suppose, though I personally wouldn't give a shit as an artist. (Good luck getting a machine to emulate my multiple styles in one image.)

I'm sure there are some who are upset about AI generated imagery itself being a thing on DA now, but honestly, go cry about it.

DA is trash anyway. That is all
My layout has removed you.
On the contrary, I'm super stoked about my plan to generate a bunch of beautiful-looking pictures, claim I made them myself, register them all as NFTs and then make a billion dollars off of them.

(In all seriousness, controversy aside, this is still a really nifty tool for personal use if you're looking for inspiration and such. It reminds me of Artbreeder, but more open, since you aren't required to have an account and mix specific images with each other)
