What if someone’s yum is yuking on someone else’s yum?

Do you realize that it’s still contained away from the water cycle and making water shortages way worse? Waste water is still water.

That’s the best response and reasoning I’ve read in this whole conversation

What a myopic view of artistic creation. You’re ignoring all ancient art, anything from pre history, and only thinking of art as things that are sold, popular, or known. A kid’s crayon drawing and a doodle in a notebook are also forms of art. Art isn’t only digital either. Humans have a desire to create, and watering that down by saying kids can just tell a robot to draw for them is repugnant. It’s the loss of a valuable skill and something intrinsically human.

And that’s just the art side of ai, not even the problems with the environmental impact, misinformation, arguable theft related to it’s creation, etc.

There is a big difference between the statue of David and a 3d printed figure of it. Even if it was the same size and even visually identical, the hand carved one is always more important to people, because someone put the effort and thought into it, and the other is a cheap replica.

So you’re argument is that under communism we’d have less ai and it would be developed slower? Not exactly saying ai is a good thing there, and it doesn’t really cover the inherent issues related to it’s existence.

Do you realize how much water gets taken out of the water cycle just to cool those things?

You literally said it was in the hands of the bourgeoisie in your last comment.

So? That’s why it’s an opinion. If you want to subscribe to some postmodern definition of art and think finding a crumpled ball of paper on the street makes you an artist, go right ahead. I’ll think you’re wrong and foolish, but sure.

Ai slop isn’t art, and you can cope with people thinking that.

If you think art only exists in the hands of the oligarchs you’re woefully ignorant on the scope of what art is and art history.

Part of my issue is a philosophical and environmental issue, which would exist regardless of the political economic system ai would exist in.

Art is more than a quality picture. It’s an innate human activity and an action of self expression. It’s a creation made by a living things, making choices in its creation, to express itself. Ai slop doesn’t do this. It’s like ordering a cheeseburger without pickles and saying that you cooked it yourself.

My concerns about to ai go way beyond my problems with capitalism. The environmental impact, the degradation of the creation of art for the masses of people, the ethics behind scraping images…

Gotcha, that’s reassuring

I want double my money back if the free program doesn’t work!

Yeah but breaking like six computers to do it, or one computer six times, seems like a pretty steep price for that when I basically just use my computer for gaming browsing and the occasional audio/video edit.

… So what should I try Linux again?

No shit it’s us centric answers op asked what the plan was for the “leaders” in the us

So you admit that those cultural aspects are actually there. Which are failed when they are used to support the ruling class.

Which was my point.
