If you give people freedom (good thing, right?) and tools exist to perform a task in a variety of different ways (some faster/more efficient than others) people will naturally gravitate towards using the most efficient tools to gain a competitive advantage, and other people will prefer work produced with those tools because it's better/cheaper. As long as better tools exist and people are free, this is just the way things are gonna play out.

If you're angry that independent artists are being fucked over by bigcorp, AI tools aren't the battle you should pick, because it's a guaranteed loss for a lot of very logical reasons, and it's just another example of a pattern of oppression enabled by our social and political systems. Even if by magic you managed to change something there'd just be another inequality coming down the pipe shortly after.
