I’m not anti-AI.
I like MRI machines. I like collision avoidance systems in airplanes. I like software that can detect cancer before a doctor can. I like machine vision systems that stop factory workers from getting their hands crushed in hydraulic presses.
That’s what computers are supposed to do.
Cold. Precise. Mechanical.
I don’t need a technology to “express itself.”
The problem started when Silicon Valley decided the machine should paint. The machine should write poetry. The machine should compose symphonies and generate films and imitate the human soul like a skinwalker wearing a beret.
Now every ad, every song, every image online has this faint chemical aftertaste to it. Like the entire culture is being slowly replaced with synthetic substitutes because executives realized audiences consume slop at the same rate they consume art.
And the worst part is they call this “democratizing creativity.”
No. Creativity was already democratized. A guy with a guitar and 3 friends in a garage could make something beautiful. A college kid with a cracked copy of Photoshop could make an album cover that changed someone’s life.
What they actually democratized was content production.
Factories. Throughput. Infinite generation.
A machine can diagnose my low testosterone. Fine.
I just don’t want it writing the eulogy.
The Academy has banned AI from ever winning an Oscar.
• Only roles “demonstrably performed by humans with their consent” can be nominated for acting Oscars
• Screenplays “must be human-authored” to qualify for a nomination
If your gig flyer is AI, I won’t go.
If your book cover is AI, I won’t read it.
If your song is AI, I won’t listen.
If your ad is AI, I won’t buy.
If your profile picture is AI, we can't be friends.
please recognize your privilege today if you are not living through the atrocities in the middle east, and spread awareness as their voices are being silenced. its always fuck israel, fuck trump, free palestine and everything in between.
