Fuck AI

Creatives hate AI, full stop. As a musician, I notice that a huge majority of musicians despise that shit. It's such obvious copyright infringement, but whereas I get a life-crippling fine for using a 2-second sample of someone else's song, these companies walk away unscathed after scraping every fucking song on the internet. You and me would go to prison for doing that.

You notice how incredibly often failed or failing creatives end up grifting to the right? Nicki Manaj at the Charlie Kirk event. Steven Crowder's failed acting career. Every dipshit comedian on Joe Rogan scraping for a semblance of relevance. Hitler himself was a failed artist, and it should come as no surprise that fascists and fascist-sympathizers are gung ho for AI in creative fields; they want to control the culture, control the narrative, and ultimately control the public sentiment in their favor.

It's a fools errand. Art represents individual expression beyond their control and reaches the culture organically and not with an ironclad fist. The kids will be alright.
