"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
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.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

But you can still be creative and have your nebulously undefinable freedom, you just can't work- hence, it's not taking your creativity or freedoms, it's taking your job
The takeaway here is that we should strive for a society in which artists do not have to monetarily justify their existence
By not getting paid to be creative, their creations will have less exposure, they will also not be able to spend as much time honing their craft as they need a job to earn money to support their craft.
