I don’t wanna get too deep into the weeds of the AI debate because I frankly have a knee jerk dislike for AI but from what I can skim from hog groomer’s take I agree with their sentiment. A lot of the anti-AI sentiment is based on longing for an idyllic utopia where a cottage industry of creatives exist protected from technological advancements. I think this is an understandable reaction to big tech trying to cause mass unemployment and climate catastrophe for a dollar while bringing down the average level of creative work. But stuff like this prevents sincerely considering if and how AI can be used as tooling by honest creatives to make their work easier or faster or better. This kind of nuance as of now has no place in the mainstream because the mainstream has been poisoned by a multi-billion dollar flood of marketing material from big tech consisting mostly of lies and deception.
