AIs may use human data to create, but they only mimic human emotion; they lack the lived experience of human creators. (Cave) My recommended solution is raising awareness. I discuss my intention to raise awareness through fiction that demonstrates the issues. To make my case, I use arguments from Brooks, Searle, Egnor and various other sources.
