Oh god it all makes sense now. AI-generated art is being driven by techbros who are dissatisfied about how much they’ve been paying for their OC furry porn.

This is terrifyingly accurate, at least in the case of Pony Diffusion.

But like… Actually yes.

Tech bros just are antisocial and weird and don’t want to have to interact with people for what they want.

So you replace the person with the digital slave, and sell it to a company that wants the free labor.
