Fuck AI

"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.

If the "artist" saved the prompt they can just crank out another one, down to the pixel.

As an artist and deep admirer of art I agree with how he explains AI's involvement in the artistic space.

No matter how great AI gets at mimicry. The major part of art, to me, is you see the emotions of another human being. Craft is important but secondary. To illicit a feeling is what transcends a piece.

I've seen works that gave such a strong sense of awe they were probably as close as I'll get to a religious experience of seeing a God. A force so string that it pulls you beyond your understanding of what it is to be human.

I have a piece I purchased made of clay that feels otherworldly and practically radiates those powerful feelings every time I stare at it. On the back are subtle thumbprints. AI will never scratch that feeling or leave marks of humanity.

Just squirt out more "art," it's not like the original meant anything anyway

Once it’s through his digestive tract it’ll be more art than it was before.

Do the USA always arrest people and put them in a prison cell for a few hours/days? Even if the crime is some trivial property damage of $50 or whatever it costs to print 57 images? I feel where I'm from, police wouldn't really bother to get such a criminal in their car. They'd just charge them with property damage, write down their name and be done with it?!

No, it's weird that he was arrested for this, that is why there's multiple news stories about it

[–] Steve@startrek.website 4 points 11 hours ago

The arrest and processing is your minimum punishment for being accused

Serious Chad move. Props to him!

Dwyer tried to make art, but Grainger turned it into a movement.

[–] Antagnostic@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Was he eating art, or was the eating art?
