>but not if it prevents authors from being able to make a career out of producing great work Why? Why should we hold back technological and social progress because it might make it more difficult for some authors to have a profitable career? Are only people that have the mechanical skill to draw and write well the only ones that should be allowed to profit from creative work? Because that's how it's been so far. You might have the best ideas for a story, picture or movie, but if you lack the mechanical skill to bring them to life then your creativity is worthless. AI generation can help those people have a chance too.
