Let's say I'm an artist. I have, thus far, distributed my art for consumption without cost, because I want people to engage with and enjoy it. But, for whatever reason, I have a deep, irrational philosophical objection to corporate profit. I want to preclude any corporation from ever using my art to turn a profit, when at all possible. I have accepted that in some sense, electrical and internet corporations will be turning a profit using my work, but cannot stomach AI corporations doing so. If I cannot preclude AI corporations from turning a profit using my work, I will stop producing and distributing my work.

Do you think it's reasonable for me to want some legal framework that allows me to explicitly deny that use of my work? Because I do.

When you put it that way, I think you just laid out the case for creating a Copyleft for art.

A copyleft license is enforced by copyright. That’s the reason others can’t simply ignore the license.
