As someone who uses generative AI, I don't use it out of some mindless obedience to corporations, but rather because it can massively reduce the work needed to perform certain tasks.
I think the fight against AI is a losing battle. Better to push for regulations in energy usage. (And no, I don't give a fuck about artists' intellectual property. I think intellectual property rights are holding humanity back in order to enrich a few artists who falsely and arrogantly believe themselves to be original thinkers, and who furthermore believe that being an original thinker gives them the right to prevent other people from spreading their ideas or thinking of the same thing.)
So, you think the need of artist to eat is a problem?
I mean, if anything an artist do it's worlds patrimony then they will me above the rules of capitalism and don't need to use money for food and tools, right?
I mean that will be the best solution, the artist will be able to do art and not content just to gain some bucks.
But no, the solution its a machine that generate content and take out the only weapon the artist have to being able to survive in this economy.
