You will still see plenty of e.g. SID covers of existing pop music, without anyone really batting an eyelid.

Fair. Pretty lame tho.

That we can agree on.

		At least they know who to cite, even if they don't. I like to have a diffusion model generate an image of my desired subject in whatever media I choose then look at it as make something close but not quite the same. I'm copying tons of people I don't even know. But I am also just practicing and don't try to pass it off as my own creation.
