I've got to be honest, I don't quite follow most of what you're trying to say here.
Can you explain where you think the potential free speech issue is? I can see someone arguing that banning AI art is a violation of someone's free speech but I can't see how you think allowing it is somehow a free speech issue. It's not stopping anyone from saying anything or posting whatever art they want.
I'm also not sure what you think AI art is capable of. In your first comment, I thought you were worried that people would use AI art because it was maybe faster, cheaper or easier and that would be a risk to artists' jobs. But in this post you denigrate AI art to such an extent that I'm not sure how you think it could be a threat. If "nobody [is] seriously using them" then the fuss over AI art is a little silly, no?
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
