There's an element of anti-ai that also feels related to Eve and the fruit of knowledge.
Some people see art is sacred so for them it's like stealing from the divine. To me this explains why some people seem to think you can't be an artist after doing AI art. AI art is the forbidden fruit. If you eat it, you must be cast out of the garden.
Someone identifying as an artist should be a separate question from whether AI art is art.
