I feel like "don't agree" is a weird framing, because it assumes that all technological innovations must have the explicit and affirmative consent of all parties they could directly or indirectly affect. Not to mention that "artists" are not a monolith any more than "AI bros" are.
I could sort of get behind something like this in theory (weighing each new technology based on whether it furthers the values of the community, and rejecting it if it doesn't, kinda like what the Amish do), but I'm not sure it's being applied neutrally or consistently here, nor do I think it works in practice especially for something as decentralized as a diffusion model, which are surprisingly simple to build and train and can run on a home GPU.
