I feel that the original quote “better a pig than a fascist” is more relevant and important these days than this take
Someone at studio Ghibli recently said something about gen ai, apparently. But yeah agreed.
Edit: I've come out from under my rock and news has reached my as to why this quote is relevant again. The original quote seems more fitting over the ai one now.
Miyazaki, co-founder and chairman of Ghibli Studio
I thought he came out against it years ago, didn't know he said anything recent. Although it makes sense he wouldn't stop talking about it these days especially.
nah, people are talking about what he said years ago. He didn't say anything recently (or at least, not that I know of)
There's a point I've heard that the kind of slop that gen AI can be used for is good for fascists, because they're not trying to say anything or make it cohesive, they just want a glut of vague sentiments they're agreeable to, and gen AI can give them that without having to deal with pesky artists who have thoughts of their own like, "what you want is bad, actually," "maybe fuck you," and "I will stab you in the eye with my pencil."
