Raw LLM Responses

​@ TL;DR: The post I mentioned never sait "bad art" should be paid for. It says the mentality of "do it professionally or don't to it at all" is bad and is against human nature. You're still missing the point. There's a middle ground between shunning something and "enjoying" it. That state of "being fine with it" is what I'm referring to. And that's what we need more of. Imagine your grandpa suddenly decides to learn tango and wants to join a dance class. You're implying that you wouldn't admire his enthusiasm and that you’d discourage him from doing so—essentially "shunning" him, as you believe is appropriate based on your own logic. You argue that society should do this, that such discouragement is correct and shouldn't be "reconformed"—meaning we shouldn't work toward normalizing such behaviors instead of shaming them. This contradicts with your comment's "being fine" part. Sure, he should be careful with the moves he's trying, but beyond safety concerns, you shouldn’t criticize him for being "childish" or say anything worse. Maybe caution him about being reckless, but that only goes so far, you know? And once again, you’re missing the point: Not rewarding something does not mean you have to shun or shame it. Normalizing the acceptance of "bad art" doesn’t mean you have to reward it. It simply means you shouldn’t shame it. Tell me honestly—if you walked into your bro’s dorm room and saw them drawing some mid-to-low quality doodles, you wouldn’t give them a funny look? Wouldn't you think it's weird? That judgemental approach is what the post imlies we should root out. Everyone has to start somewhere, and 70% of people will begin with "bad art." If they stop there, they’ll never even reach an "okay" level. If you shame them, they might never try again, leading them to falsely believe they’ll never be capable of creating "okay" art. This becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. That, in turn, can lead to feelings of unfulfillment or envy, which may manifest in behaviors like the guy in this video—trying to degrade the value of real art while compensating for his own shortcomings with AI "art." Ultimately, he has become spiteful, trying to drag others down because they have something he was never able to achieve. This is a textbook example of unfulfilled dreams and hopes. I’m not exaggerating. That’s why the other guy said he feels sorry for him. The first guy, obsessed with his AI "art," never had the chance to improve his own craft because he was too busy securing his future in "the great capitalist machine." He likely lacked the spare time to hone his artistic skills or chase his dreams—probably because he had to switch to "survival mode." In the end, I did end up explaining half the video, except for the "great capitalist machine" part. Not understanding such a simple concept "is quite ludicrous". The post I referenced argues that movement—whether it's dancing, playing, or self-expression through art—is a natural human need. Just as kids enjoy doodling, singing, dancing, making noises, running, and jumping around until they’re exhausted. You might argue that some people have learned to "resist" those urges or even "lack" them entirely, but eventually, everyone finds their own creative outlet in some form. Their passion. Their enjoyment. Just in a way they were allowed to express it. And on this, I’m certain. Labeling a child as a "good kid" or a "bad kid" too early can lead to the internalization of those definitions. A child who craves parental acceptance might adopt a "fake it till you make it" mindset, convincing themselves that they must never, even a little, want to be a "bad kid."
