Artists should be able to opt-out so the debate can be resolved. AFAIK they can.
Also, Ghibli will likely benefit from the huge amount of publicity they've had with the AI image gen rush. It's the artists/studios that don't get named that would likely complain.
I wasn’t trying to reduce it, someone called it “filth” and someone else said they’d go to hell and so I wondered if it was something to do with an art style normally associated with prohibited material or something like that.
I, for one, am glad that I live in a country that's willing to commit atrocities and hide them from me so that I can peacefully sit on my ass and have all my goods and entertainment delivered straight to my various orifices.
