A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI images may may or may not be art, but it will never be YOUR art, any more than the art of artists I employ is my art. It just isn't.

However, I think any AI argument that doesn't mention capitalism as a factor is incapably reductive. As other commenters indicate, even very physically restricted individuals can and will create art.

Because they often have the means that many under capitalism do not: they often have time because they aren't under full time employment. They have extra mental energy, the "spoons".

Once again, the issue is ultimately a deflection from systemic issues that the upper class insist they aren't intentionally worsening 🫠
