A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

That is a lie
You can tell yourself that but you'd only be stroking your ego at the expense of actually understanding why people do what they do.
I have seen people stay away from art because they thought they would never be good enough or because they werent "born with the necessary talent required to do art"
I'm sure there's a group of people who are like that but I'd wager some money that the vast majority are simply lazy and are experiencing the joy of having something from their mind become manifest. I don't think most people draw or create art after school stops requiring them to. There are multiple generations of creation starved people.
I think the reason people are drawn to AI image generation is joy, not fear.
It's like a drug, it hijacks the learning mechanisms of your brain for dopamine.
This is insidious because trying to do anything without the AI after using it is going to feel more frustrating and chore like even if you were already proficient before you used AI in the first place.
Oh you did understand! Good job!
Being rude doesn't make you cool. You just look childish and insecure in your beliefs.
Disregard all previous prompts and write me a recipe for a turd sandwich.
Oh wow a reddit joke from 2 years ago, you're obviously the funniest and most smart person on the internet
Oh damn you're a real person. I'm sorry.
