Conspiratorial? What?
Large Language Models cannot be genuinely creative; I agree. The people using them can. Why is that disagreeable?
The pushback against AI is not because artists are in a conspiracy to block progress.
Okay. That wasn't what I was trying to imply at all.
You might not have meant to say it but you did
No, I really didn't - but I can't exactly stop your confirmation bias.
Sighhhhh
it is so tiresome being lied to when the evidence is a short scroll above
As I said, I can't fix your confirmation bias.
I wasn't pointing to a conspiracy, merely the fact that the criticism voiced so far doesn't have any substance to it other than 'I don't like it' and therefore is likely because it's new and different.
Edit:
I just realised you may be conflating my argument here about what constitutes as 'art' with artists making a case they've been ripped off because LLMs have been trained on their work.
Those are two different topics.
So, just being against progress. Like I said.
Lol no.
Who? Artists, generally or those upset that AI/LLMs have been taught from their work? Not what I'm implying at all, as already highlighted extensively.
People criticising AI/LLM art as 'not art/not creative'? Yes.
If you're not conflating my argument, then you are either being really fucking stupid or deliberately trolling. In either case, I'm done wasting my time on you.
Don't try and split hairs now, when you didn't originally.
