Yeah, AI stuff has really screwed with the state of the internet as a whole. I also get the economic problems with corporations acting like it's sophisticated enough to replace people en masse. I don't really have a great deal of respect for the way it's often used to be as lazy and uninspired as possible. Like, I'm interested in using it as a way to make animation or the art for comics, but without human intervention, you can tell it was slapped together. It's just an art form in the early stages. I'd want to do things with much more personal involvement as opposed to having it do everything, like making things you traditionally would need millions of dollars without having to deal with massive companies that screw animators. It's going to replace Hollywood with a new flood of independent creators, and people can either learn to use it or not, but ultimately it is going to make the creation of art significantly more accessible, and I don't think that's a bad thing regardless of the existing issues of misuse.

I'm trying to avoid stirring the pot with naming names. It's stuff that's gotten under my skin for a while, and on a plethora of subjects. I don't talk to them very often, regardless.

On the subject, though, it is frustrating that AI is very likely the one art form I can realistically use to make what I want to because of the sheer volume of disabilities that otherwise get in the way, so @scoobdog's comments were what really pissed me off in that thread since it's effectively telling me anything I make with genuine effort using it isn't real art. So from my perspective, I think it's fair to be upset at someone telling me I can't be a "real" artist because my disabilities prevent me from doing the kinds of art I would like to. It makes the suggestion that no AI art will ever be worth anything into a genuinely offensive sentiment. But I'm not upset with you, nor him, over it since you're both capable of nuance.

It's not you. Didn't know you were mad, though...?

I kind of miss being immature enough to relentlessly rip into people here when they definitely warrant it. Some people are far too dense and pompous to "kill with kindness." There's someone I'd love to rant about, but it's been months since the last "well, fuck you too" incident, and this place won't really be worth the effort when the inevitable next one comes. It's not like being ruthless in calling them out for the asshole they are will do anything when their ego is so disproportionately large compared to the quality of the their character. I rarely interact with them, anyway. So, here I am, impotently throwing shade into the night.

Scared? Yeah, I would be, too.

There are very few shows as good as the first season of Murder One.

Hands up, this is a rubbery!

More like a deep stinker!

The Mandogela effect........

Luckily, human microtesticles are not showing up in plastic.

Netflix has Monster, which was the same author as Pluto.

Inb4 ignored because it says Israel isn't flawless.

I don't think Red Lobster represents seafood as a dietary staple....

What am I supposed to give Greeny's grandpa, then?!

He also probably said movies weren't art back in the day, too!

What constitutes as art? If an AI were sentient, would its art be invalid? How do you know it will never amount to anything in the world of art? If a person sees art and it inspires their art, does that count as imitation no matter how different it may become? At what point is imitation no longer imitation? Literally the most rudimentary questions punch holes in the statement. The point you're making is about as reductive as it gets and tends to be made by people with no understabding of what it is.

I count 3 fingers and a thumb that are closed.
