A more interesting phenomenon is how AI art users are already making "deepfakes" in established artists' style. Tech savvy concept artists like Greg Rutkowski, who was conscientious about tagging his online art with clear descriptions, became overnight reluctant AI art gods. It remains to be seen if the glut of online art with his name attached will help or hurt their sales.

The only reason he became popular is because he was the default example in the Disco Diffusion notebook ( where all this really started ) and people started copying from that. I don't know who came up with the tagging nonsense. There's thousands of other artists who have just as much work out there and their names produce just as consistent styles as Greg.
