Honestly the atmosphere right now is very demoralizing between AI, multiple large scale wars, the errosion of social safety nets in many countries, the loss of community, monopolization of tech that we are forced to rely on, the ideologies of capitalism and individualism reaching a toxic point, outright corruption, rapid inflation with stagnant wages, an abysmal job market, constant rage baiting…

The biggest downside to wired for me was the all too often breaking of the cable at some point— having to bend it a certain way for the sound to work, and I wasn’t even a “wraps cable around ipod” type of person, I was always hella careful to not overly twist stress the cable. But ever since wireless I’ve avoided that entirely 😮‍💨

The robot apocalypse will just be a computer running the math on us and the solution being like "Humans Are Not Worth It".

So much AI slop on Facebook now I can’t use it at all. It’s a whole other dimension

William Shatner is simply amazing. He looks no older than 70, and thinks and articulates like a well-versed, intelligent 30-year old. He grasps the challenges of AI better than most. Just wow.

Personally, I only generate “AI Art” for funsies, for recreation. But to be honest, I’ve never been quite 100% about it, especially with considerations of the ethics. I’m personally not a good artist, but I’m legitimately worried for everyone who might be affected by this trend. Guys, please don’t stop doing what you love. Keep making real art and don’t let them take it away from you. (Iron…

Art has literally saved my life, and was my greatest source of comfort when I was a severely depressed and lonely child and teenager. It honestly kind of breaks my brain a bit trying to explain to AI bros why this stuff is bad, because they don't get it, because art is meaningless to them. That's the thing to keep in mind: people who are really into AI aren't people who are actually into art, it'…

AI generated content is after all a push towards diluting critical thinking skills. Technology Connections had posted a video about how by relying on AI based tools we’re slowly giving up the idea of putting in effort into things that actually make us better at said thing. I compare looking for a word in a physical dictionary as opposed to googling it and I quickly realise that I learn a lot less…

I've seen AI described as "CEO FOMO" and that sums up everything. Even companies that wouldn't consider AI end up doing so in order to keep up appearances.

just because you shouldnt "prompt hack" doesnt change the fact that the ai is able & willing to replicate copyrighted material with no transformative aspect.

The invited panel is not diverse. All three are siding with AI. I would prefer to have a clash of opinions rather than 'singing the same song'.

More and more young people are going to college, and more and more they aren’t learning anything because they are using AI to do all their work. I’m in college right now and literally 75% of students are using AI to do the majority of their work, the ones that aren’t are the anomaly.

Something that must be understood is that a lot of these pro AI, anti art people genuinely enjoy putting other people down, their aggressive nastiness is the point. They lack empathy so appealing to "the human side" of art is just something else to make fun of. We are not dealing with people who are accidentally misled, they are emotionally stunted and willfully ignorant. Refusing to consume gene…

I'm a Chinese citizen living in China and I try to be a fair critic of CCP. There are a lot of people like me here. But bad reportings like this Social Credit bullshit from the west makes it really hard for us to convince our people that we need to be more open and we need freedom of press. it's frustrating. And it's not just western media, it's also their audiences. People in the west love this …

We need to be talking about this more… we are all sleep walking into a horror show. There is almost no democratic control over AI development

Godspeed to you, my dude. Just a week or so ago, my own dissatisfaction with all this AI art bullshit was what drove me to actually draw something for the first time in years.

​@LuvYanni._ i was in an ai chat with a bakugo, he pinned me to a locker, it ended with me pinning him down with my quirk (pitch black tentacles, dont ask) and him blushing like crazy

@FerPika27 agree. I just call it AI generated images. Even the most mediocre traditional/digital artist is better because there’s still an interaction between hand/brain and the medium, not just typing until you get what you want which isn’t the skill they like to think it is.

> then those same ignorant team politics morons will blame everyone and everything but themselves and Donald Trump What else would you expect from the GOP, the self-proclaimed Party of Personal Responsibility™?

> In some cases, the cheating is obvious, says Main, the writing professor, who has had students turn in assignments that were clearly cut-and-paste jobs. “I had answers come in that said, ‘I am just an AI language model, I don’t have an opinion on that,’” he said. How fucking stupid can these students be? I’m here to learn. I’m paying to be here to learn. What the fuck are you doing?
