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.

You're not an artist if you think AI is OK.

think more. if i draw something that looks nice on paper, and at the same time am fine with asking chatgpt to solve a math problem, why would my views on ai affect me being an artist or not?

Because ChatGPT is trained on stolen data and using it for any reason is participating in that theft while simultaneously causing a significant impact to the environment.

So I guess your right; it has no bearing on whether you're an artist or not, but whether you're a decent person. Thanks for clearing that up.

Now what if you used an ai trained on uncopyrighted, public data, and made sure that the computers training it were using solar power or some environmentally friendly energy source?

Let me know when this happens then I'll answer.

But you see my point, right? There is a point at which this stuff isn't actually that bad.

It has the potential to be useful, yes. It isn't currently and the path we're on with it is already irredeemable.

You have no comprehension of relevance.

On the surface. But, you're being rhetorical, in the original sense of the word. You can link words together but fail to do logic. You're doing duckspeak, quack quack
