This “everyone is using it” “resistance is futile” advertising that Ai companies are doing is because:
1) No one’s really buying Ai and they are PANICKING (😂)
2) They don’t know how else to advertise it because it doesn’t provide value
They didn't automate art & writing, it's easier to steal tons of creative data, condense it into a model then pretend the model is capable of art & writing when in actual sense the models are plagiarising a ton of creative works without any form of compensation nor attribution.
This 👇🏽. Artists must not be content being referred to “content creators.” It’s part & parcel of Silicon Valley’s drive to make art—and life itself, fungible & reducible to binary information. We are more than the sum of our parts. Resist being part of the chop shop.
7 weeks to remove all cultural significance and impact, remove all storytelling weight and aspect, and essentially cannibalize the work of someone with actual creativity.
Creator economy.
Notice how it’s paused, and not cancelled. Keep canceling your Nitro, and make your voice heard. Otherwise, they’re just gonna wait until the backlash blows over, and quietly add it over time.

@peachchild 🤝 All because the strength of Elizabeth's writing had me going like 💡💡💡&and she was so gracious as to let me experiment, truly a great writing partner💖
Lmaooooooo relatable, but also this is a legit phenomenon called Revenge Bedtime Procrastination and it’s become an increasingly common behavior among folks who work long hours and/or high-stress jobs as a means of taking back some level of control over their time and freedom 🥲
