    Being pro-AI is the same as being pro-capitalist, and thus pro-orphan crushing machine.

    Having your work stolen so that a soulless faceless corporate entity can charge teenagers to recreate it at will and pretend they have any talent or capability whatsoever is pretty shitty, and defending it is anti-proletariat.

      You know you can use AI yourself too right? There’s no need to be anti-AI when you can be anti-OpenAI/Anthropic/Google/etc.

          You’re projecting human faults to AI. Pretending to be an artist when you’re just a prompter is a human fault. And there are plenty other applications which burn more electricity than a few AI prompts per day burn. “Stealing” artists’ works doesn’t matter because intellectual property is a meaningless concept.
