"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.

I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.

Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art

Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos

Writers use it to illustrate their articles

And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.

None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.

Collaborate ffs.

Stop it.

Which bit? Caring about the welfare of other creatives?

This was a reference to the MJ meme about using drugs. I'm saying people should stop using AI to replace creatives and get help from humans instead.

Thanks for the explainer :)

Something tells me they're using the Michael Jordan "stop it, get some help" as a representation of what the post is actually meaning to say about artists. Not that you, OP, are wrong for and need to not make this post. Poorly communicated, at least lol

To add to your point, that user posts to the Fuck AI community
