I don’t get this. AI bros talk about how “in the near future” no one will “need” to be a writer, a filmmaker or a musician anymore, as you’ll be able to generate your own media with your own parameters and preferences on the fly. This, to me, feels like such an insane opinion. How can someone not value the ingenuity and creativity behind a work of art? Do these people not see or feel the human behind it all? And are these really opinions that you’ve encountered outside of the internet?

      Why don’t they then? And why do they now that AI is around?

      Almost as if there’s a barrier to entry there for most people that’s been removed.

        People do make art and be creative still so I don’t know why you’re asking why they don’t.

        And people still do it because making art is a thing humans do and like to do. People still sew even though they can just buy clothing.

        Acting like there’s a barrier for entry to make art is a flat out delusion. Humans were making art on caves with chalk and dirt they found. You can make art with a stick. Acting like artists are rich elitists is the most ignorant and incorrect thing I’ve ever read on the Internet.

          You do realise a barrier to entry doesn’t mean that something is literally impossible for everyone, but that it’s an obstacle for some?

          It’s disingenuous comparing art someone would want to look at produced today to literal caveman drawings.

          And yes artists are absolutely rich elites, the often very literal top 10%, feel free to look at my other comments ITT for why I’ve found this to be the case.
