Every other business needs a professional license or to register, be overseen by OSHA, etc should be no different for housing if they want to be treated like a business. We need consumer protections.

Reply to comment by Toast119 in Providence AI Pixel Art by cheddercaves
The ethical problem about AI generated images is that you feed it images and oftentimes other artists pieces or photographs to achieve the desired style and effect.
It also takes away commissions from artists who actually need the work, now that this is a thing companies will just utilize this software and even possibly steal others art to generate these pieces.
I've already seen a lot of artists pursue legal action against people using their art to generate AI images and it's apparent because their signature is appearing in the AI pieces.

Got it! I’ll sell my home and my dream of homeownership to someone who can 100% afford it without the rental income from the first floor. I’m sure there are lots of Boston investors who fit that bill, who will gladly jack the rent up and probably further the issues you are fighting against here.

That’s a great premise but in that case a lot of smaller owners just won’t rent out available units (or rent only to friends or family). They will lead to more supply than demand and drive up rent. If you over regulate, people won’t bother putting units out to market.

That’s not how it works.
Unless you want corporations owning three families these days with these prices, the rent will support the mortgage.
Get out of here with your ideology, getting very close to some Atlas Shrugged shit.

No one including corporations should own a second house until everyone has a home. We need public housing for everyone managed by the residents themselves.
