The future should stamp down millions of humans, this is an entirely normal and healthy thing to want, artists are useless and always have been, isn’t it great how we can now automatically steal their work? In fact human expression should be outlawed! Surrender before the great and powerful machine and never ever question the ethics of unethical things! Go get a real job like staring at an excel sheet for 8 hours a day, and never question capitalism either!
Exactly! What fools thought it was the menial, tedious drudgery that should be obviated in favour of art and intellectual pursuits and other frivolity? Humanity’s true worth and purpose is in serving the machines and the masters thereof. We must commit to the spreadsheet for it is the soul of humanity.
How awful that corporations no longer have monopolies on creating things such as shows, games, comics etc? I shoukd be a multibillion dollar corporation to afford to create something. I should have to hire hundreds of people.
Or maybe, little ol me should be able to use AI to make my ideas into real concepts and create textures and graphics and even voices for my indy games.
Why should I not be allowed to compete with big corporations? And this is coming from an artist. I sculpt and draw and AI makes those moments where I can’t visualize what I want not a problem. What if I want a logo for my little business?
I can’t afford to pay a company to make it. Describe it and boom, done.
AI evens the playing field.
People have always been able to make “Shows, games, comics, etc.” by putting in the work. By making contact with other human beings who can cover for the skills you don’t have. Corporations stealing valour when they are glorified middlemen is neither here nor there. But bringing them up does help my point:
AI tools don’t help “art”, they help people pretend they are the CEOs of the samesuch corporations you claim to be fighting against. Just saying “MAKE ME SOME SHIT” and sipping coffee while (in their case people, in this case a machine, though the machine is taking from the actual artists) does all the real work. Without learning. Without engaging with it in any meaningful way. Just put in a command. Get an output.
This whole thread just reminded me why I hate techbros. Thanks
