Get fuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked
“This isn’t going to stop,” Allen told the New York Times. “Art is dead, dude. It’s over. A.I. won. Humans lost.”
“But I still want to get paid for it.”
I disagree that AI is “stealing” for the same reason I don’t think piracy is stealing. It’s true that everything AI produces is inherently derivative. However, intellectual property only exists as a set of market relationships enforced by the state. Even so, I would agree that artists are getting exploited. However, that’s because the market they are forced to engage with is controlled by capital and not because IP is a physical thing that can be stolen.
"Artists are getting exploited under capitalism anyway so let’s exploit them even harder and automate their style and process into an easily commodified and easily devalued theftbox."
I hope you don’t have any artist friends; I am an artist and already find you intolerable just from three ignorant theftbox-defending posts of yours.
You’re arguing in defense of feeding artist output into exploitative treat printers because “they’re already getting exploited but it’s ONLY capitalism’s fault” like you’re not one of the people gleefully feeding it.
Take this hand-hiding gaslighter techbro bullshit and fuck off with it. I deny you; and I hope any artist friends you have find out about how alright you are with their bullshit getting hoovered up by soulless techbros.
