Ai art is fake art.
What can YOU do everyday to stop generated images and art from showing up more often? Tell it like it is and make it sting: Ai art is fake art. Generated images are fake art. Calling it "fake art" stings for EVERYBODY. That's why it works. The tech necessary for generating images, text, and many other processes have already been around for several years now. Someone would take dozens of scripts for Seinfeld episodes and make the script of a nonsense-episode for internet brownie points, saying it was generated by AI. Everybody shared it knowing it was fake. What's stopping you from calling it fake now? Everyday culture begins with YOU. Nothing comes out of nowhere, that's why you must start calling it fake art today and always. "Oh it's actually a photo I generated using AI" So you agree? It's fake ART. They know it's not art, and therefore want to correct you. If they don't say it was generated using AI, and you're not convinced, then use critical thinking. Keep asking for more information. Photography is NOT fake art, so always tread carefully. "It's just a joke" So you agree? It's FAKE art. Peopld don't want to hear in response that it's fake. That means their joke missed the mark, or wasn't funny. It's over the top, but it's not meant to be comfortable
"I like to call it generated images, or generated content. I can't call it fake art." Doesn't sting at all. FAKE ART. It already works. Several people have already stopped sharing fake art in large chat groups I frequent because they didn't want to be pointed out for sharing fake things. People don't want to be fakers. Nobody wants to be associated with a faker. Do your part and point it out. If it makes everybody uncomfortable including yourself- GOOD! If the culture of AI-generated work in our world becomes less about how "intelligent" it is, and more about how "fake" it is, we will already move further away from a future where trust will deteriorate. Trust in images. Words. People Remember: Faith keeps our world alive
