Raw LLM Responses

Disabled artist here (various nerve issues from a childhood brain tumor; I still technically have it but I got lucky with it) - I've been drawing since childhood, at first with very contorted gestures and then more and more like non-disabled people hold their pens (lots of therapy I'm really thankful to my parents for). It always really annoys me when disability gets brought up in any discussion of accessibility. Yes, there ARE accessibility features that really help disabled people doing things - for example, stabilizing lines in graphics programs can really help me because I always have a light jitter in both my hands. Scissors especially made for lefties were a big part of why I could properly participate in various activities even at a young age (my right half is more affected, so I'm a leftie by necessity). There are a LOT of things that make activities of any kind more accessibile and it heavily depends on the person in question how much of it they need. However, none of that usually is doing things straight-up for you, it's helping you do things. AI doesn't feel like that at all to me - it cuts out a lot of the activities inherent to drawing instead of helping you do it. It provides you with a result, not with a way to do art. I had to re-write this a bunch, because I don't like to come across as talking for all disabled people. I'm talking about my lived experience, which is obviously different from a disabled person without hands or a mute, deaf or blind person. I really don't like it when people try to make disabled people their argument of choice as a whole, because only very rarely do they actually have access to the experience of being disabled. If there are disabled people out there who really benefit from this kind of generative AI, I'll concede that for them it does work (again, accessibility can be very personalized) but usually the argument reads more like a morally charged club.
