The grift must continue!!!

School shootings.

No, it’s not going to be okay being accused of something that I’m not. Photography IS art. AI is NOT art. So I’m not at all like the people saying it wasn’t.

You’re free to disagree with me on what is or isn’t art, but don’t accuse me of being like anything until you know exactly what I’m actually like.

Cool?

They were tankies and fascists before anyone ever came here and found out that they were.

Calling them such didn’t create them.

Basically… A tankie isn’t not a tankie just because theres no one there to accuse them of being one.

I see ya loud and clear! So that’s good news!

And you’re allowed to think that with no argument from me. But do you see how many people have rushed to tell me how I’m wrong with their shit examples?

AI isn’t art. It never will be. Using AI doesn’t make someone an artist. This is what I think. And it’s going to have to be okay.

In my eye, AI isn’t art and using AI doesn’t make one an artist. In fact I think it’s an insult to at and artists that talentless hacks are now claiming the title when it takes a lifetime to develop a craft to become an artist.

It’s shameful.

Appreciated. Yeah. That douche is the absolute worst, but everyone climbing over one another to call him out is just making him more and more relevant.

Bots and locked down curated content vs. hive-minded rhetoric that circumvents anything resembling nuance at all.

Gotta admit, there aren’t many good choices here.

Let’s everyone point and laugh. It humbles people like him, right?

He’s still not an artist.

According to these people, YOU become the artist, AND the AI is the artist.

Weeks? That shit can be done in mere minutes.

If a skillless child can reproduce it with no training but a command of their language of origin, it’s not art. You can give a child a camera but they’re not gong to be Ansel Adams. Yet you can give a child a computer and voilà! You have Stable Diffusion.

I’m not arguing this with you any further.

Keep trying, you’ll get there one day.

k. Thanks! I have been waiting for weeks for permission from an AI “artist” to be allowed to have an opinion on something.

You’ve helped me out a lot!

The moment your art was run through AI, it was no longer yours, and no longer art.

I’m done talking about this. I stated my point, my opinion, and I have no intention to change it. AI is garbage.

I didn’t need to. The moment photography was brought up as a comparison, that’s all I needed to know.

AI is not art. Period.

Ahh yes, the camera bullshit. Here we go…

Yes a photographer is an artist. They need to know light diffusion, locational effects, distance and magnification, aperture, shutter speed, and have a subject prepped and able to take direction. They also have to have an insane understanding of post process editing.

They don’t simply type a sentence into a computer and get beautiful photographs.

A child can produce the exact same image by simply typing the exact same sentence into a computer.

A child cannot be given a camera and be tasked to produce the exact same quality photo of a professional photographer- and succeed.

So stop with this bullshit comparison. It’s apples and oranges.

Yeah, the joke is that someone thinks they can call themselves an artist by typing a sentence into a prompt on a computer. I get that you’re trying to call me out, but the failure in your joke is that I’m not claiming to be an artist. That douche is.

You’ve got nothing.
