# Brett Cashman Whether or not you agree with how AI's were trained, it...

Brett Cashman Whether or not you agree with how AI's were trained, it doesn't change the fact that they're a tremendous advance that is going to revolutionize artistic production of all kinds. And this isn't the first time that copyright monopolists have complained about new tech.  Copyright monopolists also whined  about the printing press, cameras, phonographs, Photoshop, VHS players.  Everyone  now recognizes that their fears were exaggerated, and the new tech was a massive net win.   Same thing will happen with AI.
