"AI haters"? When we see an author/artist use genai, we are not jealous. We are not envious. We do not want to be like you, who has lost all taste and respect for the arts. We are disappointed. We are disgusted. For us to be a hater you must have something we want, and we want none of it.

And YES. Charles de Lint used AI for the cover of a book he has coming out this fall. He sent out an email that lead with "AI Haters shouldn't read too much further..." #booksky

I also genuinely think that being able to separate "I don't like it" and "it's bad" - or at least understand that the distinction exists - is an important skill not even for an artist, but for any person.
