That's a gross mis-generalization. I expect the community response breakdown to be the same to most other examples in history: most people don't care, a small minority are hostile, and a small minority are supportive.
If you like making art, keep doing it. From an economic perspective however, you really should consider if your job is at risk from being eliminated by automation, if you depend on it to survive. No hate, just pragmatic advice.

I mean you've basically described why people are upset over this. These systems could displace them, using their own work to do it. It's perverse. What happens to art if people can't practice it professionally? Isn't valuable to our society to have people who are able to master this skill and make a living doing it? The AI community seems to not think so.
