I do think this is the most reasonable compromise here, but to answer your question.
Why should artists not use generative models for their art process?
Simply, it takes away a lot of the creative part of the art process away. You might say that these models are just more efficiently doing what humans do, taking in source material, and reinterpreting it in a different context.
These models however are not creative, they can only ever recreate patterns from the training data. This is completely different from humans who can create wholly original ideas and patterns.
Putting this process in the middle of art creation will probably lead to even more stagnation and cultural death.

Cult of tradition, the state enforces “traditional” behaviour, for example suppression of LGBT people, deeply ingrained anti feminist sentiment, and so on
The suppression of any political opponents by the state, disagreement with Putin is treason.
Fear of difference, again symbolised by the persecution of LGBT people and various ethnic discrimination the Russian state perpetrates, can also be seen in some of the state sanctioned rhetoric against Ukrainians.
Appeal to frustration, might be a bit of a stretch but the Putin regime is definitely posturing as slighted or unfairly treated by the world.
Obsession with a plot, rhetoric about Russia being persecuted and nefarious plots being done against Russia are fairly common in state rhetoric afaik
I don’t feel like going over the rest of the list, I listed a few of the points I feel like describe russia well according to Umberto Eco’s Ur-Fascism.
