Painting anyone critical of AI as a troglodyte wanting to go back to the "caveman days" or "putting the genie back in the bottle" is really disingenuous. It's a multi-faceted situation and people have different objections and concerns, many of which are extremely reasonable. It feels like the purpose of those statements is to minimize or shut down any criticism and thus normalize the highly controversial practices that tech companies employed to create this tool.
AI can be used ethically. But if the conversation isn't allowed to take place, if valid criticisms aren't considered, then the door is left wide-open for it to be used unethically too.
Personally, I don't care that the technology exists. But I do care that artists' work is being scrapped, often without consent or payment, and used as data points to feed someone else's algorithm for profit. Private Data and Ownership has been an issue with the internet for a long time and is now reaching it's disappointing conclusion.

The problem is, a LOT of young, foolish kids think AI 'animated' short videos think they're awesome. They don't understand it's destroying jobs...

There will always be time and space for human creativity.

The genie is out of the bottle and AI is here to stay unfortunately. It can’t be stopped, but there should be laws put in place to limit and/or deny its use, especially if using it means taking jobs away from artists and writers. I’m glad there are studios out there that still have creative integrity and see how important the human experience is in order to create great art and stories.
