Yes, it should give AI pooh-poohers some serious concerns.

Now this is unadultered trash. It is the Sun, or sunset, that
paints the sky gold (not with gold).

No, the stars emerge later, after sundown. At this level,
AI-generated sonnets are trash, but it is making fearful
progress, and the sooner it stop the higher our chances
of survival as human beings.
IMHO, the rational attude towards AI is fear:
1. One should know it is the dehumaniser -- a fact its
proponents try to hide behind the euphemism
`transhumanism'.
2. AI is the disuniter of people, making inter-human
communication less necessary then ever in history.
Google is your friend? Phew -- the LLM is your new
friend.
3. AI is the joy-killer. It discourages human
creativity, by replacing humans in creative jobs, and
by making it deceptfully easy to sort of "create" art
by promting the AI to do so and calling the result
yours (which it is not):

4. Last but not least, we humans desperately need
friction, whereas AI is the ultimate lube.
// <https://blog.darylsun.page/2025/01/23/se-5-indieweb-carnival-january-2025>
The least one can do about it, is assiduosly to ignore
everything related to AI, as if did not exist, and continue
producing genuine human work and art.
Then, one should avoid (dis-)services like Github and Gitlab
that let AI crawlers to launder your work, be it images,
text, or code. Avoid AI-firendly services and prefer AI-
phobic, or AI-hostile ones. catbox.moe, for example,
promises never to cooperate with AI companies:
// <https://catbox.moe/faq.php>
If you have a website, consider joining the no-AI webring,
// <https://baccyflap.com/noai/>
filtering out prose launderers with robots.txt and ai.txt,
enforcing robots.txt
// <https://github.com/ai-robots-txt/ai.robots.txt>
and poisoning the AI crawlers like the filthy rats they are:
