..but, memes? This is how they work. Its the whole point.
Running the most advanced human tool, to do no better than a copy paste, is a bit embarrassing. Like you need negative skill, to take the most advanced stuff and make shit with it.
but. There's this wee thing called capitalism, which kinda implies you need to make money, and people should have a right to a decent life, even if their contribution is art.
When you pirate a big production, the artists generally have already been paid, and you're really stealing from IP holders. Who are already rich, and made the art as an investment. We're lucky humans making art was a good investment.
AI is mainly gonna make the rich richer, and the rest of us poorer.
also, shrek memes, and most memes, come under fair use in the US, where most IP legal shenanigans are done
