I don’t like the practice of using people’s work without giving them any credit. Especially when used to make money.
Do you dislike open source software? For most of them the credit is of the license or name. Quite similar to ghibli, where a person drops the name of the artstyle.
And even moreso when it makes the people who made the original work much less likely to be able to make money.
In open source stuff, backend libraries are less likely to get paid compared to frontend products, creating a product can make the situation worse for the OG person. It can be seen predatory, but that’s the intent of open source collaboration fwiw.

If the artist says they’re ok with a model being trained on their work, then it’s relatively fine with me. Most artists explicitly are not and were never asked—in fact, most licensed their work in a way that they should be paid for it’s use.

In art, the art is usually the product itself and if it’s used for something, it’s usually agreed upon with the artist and user, unless the artist has explicitly said they’re ok with it being used—e.g. some youtubers have said it’s ok to use their music in any videos (although this isn’t the same as it being used for training a model)
The main point here being respecting the work and consent of the creator.
