Raw LLM Responses

​@I_am_a_nice_person Okay, first off, the idea that there are “too many fake ADHD or autistic people online” is pretty much a myth, and it’s a pretty ableist one. There’s no evidence of widespread faking. What has increased is its visibility, diagnosis, and advocacy by people being willing to talk openly about their experiences. Demanding certificates or proof only ever gets aimed at disabled people, and that alone should tell you something. If you think something I said is wrong, argue the point. But treating neurodivergence as something that needs to be constantly verified for legitimacy is just gatekeeping dressed up as skepticism. Secondly, I’m not posting medical records for internet strangers. That’s an insane thing to even ask. Also, the idea that people need “certificates” to speak online is goofy. You’re not my doctor, my insurer, or my employer. You’re a YouTube commenter. If you think my comment is “slop,” cool, criticize the ideas. Quote something specific and argue it. But demanding proof of diagnosis is just a weird purity test and doesn’t actually address anything I said. And lastly, stepping back for a second, even if you assume the comment was written with the help of ChatGPT, why does that matter? Was anything in it false? Harmful? Logically incoherent? If an argument stands or falls based on who you imagine wrote it, rather than on its substance, that’s already a problem. Ideas don’t become wrong because of their origin. They’re wrong when they don’t hold up under scrutiny. Obsessing over intent, authorship, or tools is a distraction from the only thing that actually matters: whether the claims are accurate and the reasoning is sound. If you disagree, point out the flaw. If something is incorrect, explain why. That’s how discussion is supposed to work. Otherwise, all we’re doing is policing vibes. And once debate becomes about suspicion instead of substance, there’s no meaningful conversation left to have at all. And to bring it all back, the same logic applies to art. Art isn’t validated by the process that created it, but by how it’s perceived, interpreted, and experienced. Meaning doesn’t live in the tool, the effort, or even the intent of the creator. It emerges when someone engages with the work. Consumption is what completes it. Art is inherently subjective. Always has been. Pretending otherwise, pretending there’s some objective hierarchy based on time spent, suffering endured, or tools used, is an affront to art itself. If meaning were objective, interpretation wouldn’t exist. That’s why this conversation was never actually about whether AI art is “valid.” It’s about fear. Specifically, the discomfort artists feel when a new tool lowers the barrier to creation and breaks the implicit link between effort and legitimacy. That tension shows up every time the means of creation change. History is full of this. The outrage isn’t new, but the technology evoking it is. Traditional artists aren’t going anywhere. But neither is the march of time. Every generation of artists has had to adapt, to lean into what their tools couldn’t replicate, to find new constraints and new forms of expression. This moment is no different. So the question isn’t whether AI belongs in art. It’s whether artists are willing to evolve and create work that can’t be reduced to automation. That’s where art has always gone next.
