Joining the holy crusade against AI on the side of the Catholics That’s a sentence that would have deeply confused me five years ago

As a person who has made professional art for over 30 years, let me tell you some hilarious shit. - I remember when artists freaked the fuck out when photoshop and digitizers came out. Digital art was going to ruin jobs for artists. (It didnt) - I was there when artists freaked the fuck out when video games made the transition from 2D games to 3D games because making 3D art, was going to ruin "art" in video games and making 3D art wasn't "real" art. (It didnt ruin art and it is real art) **Literally knew people personally that quit making games because they hated the transition to 3D. The thing with "real" artists, is that artists adapt and make art, regardless of the medium and typically don't give two flying shits about what "other" artists are doing because you should be busy just being you and creating what your heart tells you. Be it on Canvas Digital 2D/3D Side of a building Macaroni Art Sculpting Music Dance Sports ... or whatever the NEW thing is that comes along every couple of years or so. If you create - you are an artist. Period. You do you, whatever that is and let your soul be happy. Its nobody else's business what that is. The cool thing about art in any form is that its subjective and if you dont like it - don't participate. There is lots of bad art. Lots of great art and everything inbetween. Don't like peas, don't eat peas. Easy. No one needs to hear about how much you hate peas. That's your problem.

Except it has stolen from artists without their consent. Thats why lawsuits are happening. This is misinformation guised as a straw man argument. AI models like Suno illegally trained on artist voices & production and what they create frankensteins those artists sounds

You have no talent. Your attempts to replace it with AI sucks. ChatGPT ain’t saving you from this ass-whoopin.

AI haters : The new hate mob. The Internet didn’t invent the mob. It gave the mob a keyboard. Humans have been gathering together to ridicule, isolate, shame, and attack people they considered different for thousands of years. The differences changed — beliefs, cultures, appearance, lifestyles, ideas, art, music, technology — but the basic human behavior often remained the same. Someone becomes an outsider. A group decides that person or that group represents something they dislike. Then the crowd gathers. What starts as criticism can turn into ridicule. Ridicule can turn into harassment. And eventually, people begin competing with each other to see who can deliver the harshest insult. The Internet simply made it easier. Someone who might never confront a stranger face-to-face can suddenly become extremely aggressive behind a screen, especially when surrounded by hundreds of people reinforcing the same attitude. We’ve seen versions of this throughout history: Village gossip → public ridicule → social shunning → mobs → propaganda → mass media → Internet forums → social-media dogpiles → trolls. The technology changes. Human nature doesn’t always change with it. And you can see this happening around new technologies and new forms of art today. Take AI music. You can dislike AI music. You can criticize the technology. You can debate copyright, creativity, ethics, ownership, or whether AI belongs in the music industry. That’s called having an opinion. But when criticism turns into attacking individual artists simply because they use a new technology, something different is happening. Criticism is one thing. Gatekeeping is another. Personal attacks are another. And organized dogpiling is something else entirely. History has shown us many times that being different can make someone a target — especially when a group convinces itself that the target represents something that threatens the way things used to be. Every generation has its outsiders. Every generation has its gatekeepers. And every generation eventually has to decide whether it will reject something simply because it is unfamiliar, or actually take the time to understand it. The Internet didn’t create the human instinct to form a mob. It just gave the mob a global audience. And now the crowd can reach you from anywhere in the world. Harass you and bully you. And be as hateful and ugly as they can be ... All from behind a keyboard.
