>>96154219I hate both because they're both low quality and derivative by their very nature. Art is about a blend of technique and thought that helps bring someone's inner soul into the world. The cultural legacy of a nation is reflected in its art, writing, clothing, music, architecture etc it teaches you about who they were and how they think and the limitations they worked with in their environment. AI art is just taking the collected work of human artists, mashing them together and spitting something back out that resembles it with no meaning or intent. It's soulless in the truest sense of the word. I hate AI chatbots and ChatGPT and it's derivatives because I'm already seeing people immediately jump to asking it questions and for it to provide solutions to problems without thinking for themselves at all. "Summarize this article, write this paper, make a funny cuckpost on 4chan for me". It takes away your ability to do anything for yourself. If you think the endless low quality trash on the internet is bad now it'll only be worse as it's refined. Most algorithms reward number of uploads and quantity over quality which is what AI excels at. There's already a million playlists of AI music with AI art on thumbnails, AI art flooding Pixiv and Twitter, soon it'll be AI video slop flooding every short form video format and AI podcasts shoveled out en masse.
The worst part that's rarely talked about is death of credibility. Editing has been a thing for decades, truth was always hard to find. Now it'll become near impossible to have real evidence. Courtroom evidence either dismissed as AI or created to condemn innocent people. Generations growing up where you can't trust your own eyes and ears in the slightest. It's no exaggeration that it will erode trust or certainty of anything not physically in front of you down to absolutely nothing.
