On the AI art discourse, the only type of people who are excited about AI are the bootlickers & capitalists who don't want to put in any work, give any credit, compensate anyone for their labor. AI does not 'democratize' art, writing & any other media it touches. It destroys it.
Every time I see the argument that people can get the art they want with AI because they can’t can’t draw I’m just left thinking… what do you think I did for 20 years? Just woke up with the ability to draw? No, I busted my ass learning how to.
the ai art convo is wild cuz artists jst don’t want their drawings to be stolen for someone else’s profit which is very valid and ppl who don’t draw are so mad abt it cuz y’all can’t pick up a pencil and make smth that actually looks good like how is that our fault idk
