I’m sorry but this sounds a lot like “guns don’t kill people”.
“AI” is doing tremendous damage right now to artists and many other population strata, no matter how you like to word it. I’m all for automation and I think “AI” can help humanity in many ways, but right now it’s also being used to cheap out and hurt humanity at large. I don’t think it’s helpful at all to look away
everybody keeps saying this, but i don’t think everybody realizes that any automation, at all, can have a negative effect. Yeah sure automating labor jobs would be nice, what are those people going to do now? Get a college degree? Good luck with that.
We survived the automation and industrialization of farming, we’ll survive this.
They dont give a fuck about tradesmen or cashiers or burger flippers… They’re upset because they thought they were magically above everyone and that capitalism wasnt going to effect them, and now that capitalism is effecting them, they dont want to fight capitalism, they want to ban the tool that capitalism is using to effect them, even though because of the power of the internet, said tool is available to them and to anyone who wants to use it for free, and so they cant treat their patrons like moneybags that they not so secretly looked down on before
Except their shit ISNT being hit first. We’ve had like a generation now of jobs being taken away with no new ones provided, except, this time, in this specific case, us commoners actually get a powerful new tool out of it. And it’s the tool you guys are shitting on FAR MORE than the capitalists taking jobs. You wanna give us some boycotts to join? Hell yeah, you’ll probably get a lot of AI Artists and ChatGPTers to join you in that. But no, they wanna just shit on us and call us thieves instead
from their perspective it’s being hit first, not everyone has omnipotence unfortunately, so this is expected. You see the same thing everytime you interact with republicans who are ok with people losing their jobs and careers over shit being shutdown, but bitch and cry the second you even mention the potential that it could happen to them.
Same shit probably happens with liberals as well, because everyone is a sore fucking loser, including me.
I can expect people to grow up and not fully act on their base instincts when it isnt appropriate to do so. Especially when it diverts attention from where the problem can actually be addressed. We are speeding head first into a future where there is nowhere near enough jobs to go around, and we havent even taken baby steps into transitioning to a society in which you arent required to work in order to live
If a person rapes you you don’t blame their genitalia. You blame the person.
and that’s my point. Blaming a machine is sidestepping the criminal who’s manipulating the machine to rip off people. You’re guilty of your own rule for derailing from the real culprit and ignoring the human thief. They rely on that.stop enabling it.

They’re just spooked by the fact that their shit is being hit first, and aren’t responded how they should, but rather, how they feel they should.

While a fair point, it doesnt really take away from the point that they are acting more in self interest than public interest
god no, but do you really expect anybody to act in anything other than self defense?

Oh we doing that now? Shitty Metaphors? Ok.
Let’s do it.
