If we think of the work we create as pointing towards it's platonic ideal, then we shouldn't passively accept any creation that fails in progressing towards it.
I just watched the anime film Blue Giant, which explores a love of jazz, and the main character's motivation for pursuing it is to use music to express themself to the world as richly as possible. The platonic musical form of their personhood, in a way.
I feel like we've lost or forgotten something in having ethics be stereotyped and politicised. There's a quote from I think Feynman who, when reflecting on his involvement in creating the atomic bomb, said that physics gives you the keys to knowledge, but philosophy guides you in which doors to use them on. The parallels with misused technology are pretty clear I hope.
I want to believe we're starting to realise that with AI stuff, but it's so hard to tell with everyone in their own media bubbles and seeing how much money is still being invested in it.

That's a powerful concept for a piece of art to handle, and I think a non-curated AI work would miss the nuance and come off as trite or cliché.
