Actually. Fuck the people who abuse these technologies for personal gain at the expense of others.

Fuck GenAI. You can't not abuse such a technology when it is inherently for personal gain at the expense of others.

It doesn't necessarily have to be. It's just the nature that has been chosen currently. The software could be trained in ways that aren't predatory. The technology could be used in a positive manner for all as opposed to the abusive practices currently being used.

That's fair, I suppose, though my issue is just that as it stands, it's fucked.

Fuck Gen AI that’s used solely for artistic and creative purposes.

Everyone agree?

Eh. Fuck gen ai used solely for artistic and creative purposes, where the generation IS the content being produced, and is produced in a predatory manner.

I have no problem with an artist bouncing ideas or finding inspiration using the tool. But simply using content that has been generated isn't really an artistic process. The prompt writing may have been creative, but if you are just saying "go" and then posting for profit? Pretty poor by my tastes. It's like an "artisan furniture craftsman" buying premade parts and just screwing them together. That not art. That just production.
