Let me start by defining what we're actually talking about. We're not discussing AI coloring old photos or restoring damaged film frames. We're talking about completing unfinished creative works - novels, albums, paintings - where the artist's actual intent is unknown. That's the key issue. The problem is intent. When an artist dies mid-work, we don't know what they would have changed, abandoned, or reworked. Think about Kafka - he wanted his unpublished manuscripts burned. His friend ignored that wish. We're now considering an even bigger violation, using AI to guess at what a dead person might have wanted. That's not finishing their work. It's creating something new and attaching their name to it. I get the appeal. We want more art from artists we love. But that desire doesn't override the basic respect of letting someone's creative choices be final. Once they're gone, the work should stay as they left it.
