> I'd say it's like AI music or art - something made by a machine, for some reason, just doesn't have any "soul" to it.

Diamonds are a product of natural geological processes. (Or, are grown in a lab, by recreating similar conditions.)

Music and art are products of human talent, skill, and labor - that ML companies have used (without a license, permission, or even credit) to build datasets that are now being used to make money, at the expense of these artists.

These are not the same things.

Agree, though I think he meant one is real and the other's fake.

I don't think "real" vs "fake" or "soulless" is what matters at all. Both issues should be discussed in terms of ethics and incentive structures. Who's profiting at whose expense.
