so? other businessmen only like AI because it makes them money.
like it or not money is important in our society, even for artists.
How much do they need, though?
You people never factor this in. It's always an on-off switch in your minds.
consider this. most musicians don't have [n]early as much money as Paul McCartney. Even Paul McCartney didn't have much money when he was starting out in the 60s.
Yeah, and they still make music.
Yeah, fuck musicians for wanting to make a living... They should all have a day job or just starve like all the greats... JFC, you people are just something...
Look into the future. They're not just protecting themselves. They are protesting in protection of all music artists.
So an extremely small percentage of them can have excessive wealth like paul?
Hard pass.
Many, many new artist haven't earned bupkis yet. And AI, would make it more difficult. So, zip it, dippy.
You are smart.
