Sorry, I assumed you were one of the people who doesn’t think using AI tools is a valid way to express one’s self. In hindsight, you never said things to that effect.
You aren’t one of the pricks I was referring to, I should have checked before replying to your comment. But you gotta admit, there are a lot of people who think anyone who uses AI tools is a loser, and will say all kinds of things to invalidate those who use AI.
Honestly if you as tamman2000 uses it, eh whatever, it’s out there, most likely you’re not some rich asshole ceo pushing this. I’ll still be over like “hey there are a ton of great free programs out there with great communities around them and great learning resources.” And yeah using non-ai tools isn’t always easy, it takes time and practice to get decent, I still say that time spent learning how to make it is worth it.
That said, I have less of a problem with the concept of AI itself, at the end of the day it’s just some college level mathematical theory thats been aroind since the 60s and 70s. For me, the big problems with it, is the widespread pilfering of everything on the internet to train these models, it’s the huge energy expenditure to train the models and to generate with these models, it’s the owner class using AI to replace human beings and knowing full well the environment is being torn apart to support AI, it’s the shoving of AI into every little thing whether or not it even makes sense in the first place, it’s the acceleration of enshitification, it’s the absolute flood of AI generated spam everywhere online. My problem is not strictly with AI but basically capitalism ruining this and turning it into the most asinine profit extracting bs.
