1. Wow... come to think of it, a huge number of those AI-generated images were probably scraped from Getty..

2. This is upsetting

3. Hul *the* Getty I know?

4. I can't believe Getty is over

5. It's because AI uses so many Getty images

6. *That* Getty????

7. It’s a system where you’re supposed to pay for the images you want... but now you can just generate them with a quick click using AI... ㅠㅠ

8. This can't be right;;;

9. AI likely scraped Getty Images to train its models, yet Getty itself ends up going bust, is this really ethical?

10. It’s truly ironic how the stock content business is collapsing due to AI; and it’s not just this sector, other industries will likely take a major hit as well
