For artists, it's the fact that they take decades to hone their skill and to become known for a particular style.

So when that's taken against their will without their permission, that is a type of identity theft, if you will.

One or two remaining artists are being told, here, you have a budget, here's mid-journey, I want you to use your artistic vision and skill to basically craft these AI images to replace the work product of the entire team who's now been laid off.

Poison is sort of a technical term in the research community. Basically, it means manipulating training data in such a way to get AI models to do something perhaps unexpected, perhaps more to your goals than the original trainers intended to.
