The problem with ai "art" is that it's a water-wasting, energy-guzzling, cost-inefficient unsustainable nightmare that was created with the express purpose of screwing over human creatives (if a robot can do their job then they will have a much harder time asking to be paid for their work, won't they?)
The fact that you're dickriding it is obnoxious as all hell. You're disgusting.
Also yeah, actually, art requires intent and thought that ai is not capable of and therefore ai art is not real art. Why the fuck would any of us give a shit about something that the 'creator' didn't even bother to actually make
Even the fucking urinals, which commonly get mocked for being low-effort or just generally a mockery of art itself, count as art because someone actually made it. It was made with the intention to mock and fuck with people, sure, but it was made with intention and thought
Hell, a fifth grader's shitty low-effort collage that they make for art class counts as art too, because that fifth grader actually picked the elements and arranged them how they wanted them to be.
Literally anything a person makes from a random dick scrawled on a desk to the mona lisa is closer to being art than ai 'art,' because the ai did not pick any of the details it used or how they would be arranged/incorporated. It didn't do it for a reason or with any intention in mind. It wasn't a labor of love or mockery or hatred or anything.
hiii!! im literally an artist. i don't understand how saying "ai art is art even if it's ugly and you should corrupt your thinking with a puritan understanding of what art is" is the same as dickriding. i don't "like" ai art, i think it's ugly and wasteful. in the post i think you're referencing i was pointing out how people who call themselves leftists and commies abandon their ideals when they talk about ai art. the problem with ai art isn't if it's art or not, it's much bigger and vaguer and it IS important. the point is you don't have any authority over what art is or isn't because that lies purely on the eye of the beholder. it doesn't lie on meritocracy or human touch!!!! hope this helps!!!! also idk if the death threat was yours but if it was... weirddddddd
