Okay so to be clear we are destroying power grids, the livelihoods of actual humans beings, and communication/research infrastructure for the sake of an algorithm that converts stolen data into unreliable stolen data and consistently loses millions of dollars. Just to be clear
Remember it's not about the murder ai..it's about the race for short term profits at the expense of everything that makes the world worth living in along the way
I love how they're like 'I have no idea what to do with all of this, and it kinda leaves me hollow.. BUT DEFINITELY HERE TO STAY GUYS, TO THE MOON! 🐕🚀"
“Nobody asked for all these potatoes but I keep peeling them and now my hands hurt and my house is full of peeled potatoes. Ho hum, better keep peeling”
Wtf. Thats why it was always natural to develop creativity first, then skill. AI bros go right to ‘instant gratification’ but never exercised their imagination before so they don’t know what they’re ‘making’ [having produced, rather] or, importantly, why they’re doing it. No point of view, just slop
and like. even if your skills never develop that much, art is still a deeply human experience. cave paintings are simple as hell but still connect us to our ancestors. even technically “bad” art is still worthwhile—especially if you enjoyed making it.
This is what they fundamentally don’t get.
They don’t understand why we dont want ‘the easy route’ (this isn’t really true bc of a derivative nature, lack of vision being realized, etc BUT) we don’t do it for it to be easy or quick. It’s actually FUN to spend time with yourself practicing a skill.
It's crazy to me that all these art companies, whose own primary customers are artists who make real art are all diving into ai slop, to alienate the people they depend on most. Just incredible decision making
