Why do artists attack people that use AI for art?

I live in america and all I heard from in this topic is people insulting me wtf

hopefully im not these so called americans…

I’m not even gonna bother arguing about this anymore because it’s clear you don’t understand anything you’re either a naive child who doesn’t understand anything at all or you’re too prideful and arrogant to admit that my points hold merit

Alas you didn’t even rebuke them so i shall take my leave. In the end the idiot is the one who thinks he’s the smartest even when being handed clear cut arguments and told why something is so

Oh well i tried :hugs: someone pick up from here and tell these fools why ai is hot garbage and should be destroyed though i doubt they’ll put their massive egos aside to listen

did you read his post replying to himself noting how stupid his argument was

No i didn’t bcuz idc anymore :sob: if people are gonna keep spouting the same nonsense bs idc they can’t think/don’t want to think. “It’s not that bad for the enviorment!!” Okay little timmy but it seems like EVERYBODY CARES also yes it is stop making dumb justifications for generating shitty art of azumarill or whatever. The point is using ai is wasteful. And damaging as hell and also pointless and stupid

But i digress :face_with_hand_over_mouth: ig

i mean he changed his mind and you STILL tried to argue

It’s a fair take

Did he? I’m not gonna rot my brain reading this again

here

okay nvm ig cool :+1:

bro youre acting like the egotistical one :sob:
but youre right. agree to disagree ig

and mb, that was me saying how stupid all sides of this argument were being. no matter how much we complain, ai will only get better, so its best that we leave this here and stop making each other hate each other.

yall will never understand what being free from yelling, insulting, and being angry is like in an argument

Nope

This!!! This is a work of art!!

So you want every single artist to become Johnny Silverhand? Not everyone can become a domestic terrorist rockerboy

The way you legally fight against something some shady company is doing is by boycotting it, which artist are already doing by not using. The only way forward is to make sure other people stop using it as well. “Pick up the pencil” is a call to action, it is meant to stick inside someone’s head so they’ll think about it every time they think of generating another image.

And if tech companies start using solar panels to run their AI business, well… That’s a win!
No tech company will see a product failing and think “hmmm i gotta sell this to the robots” so why would they automate production of ghibli style images if it’s not bringing money and attention anymore?

Yeah no this take doesn’t make sense, AI companies aren’t making AI art to “replace artists commissions” they are doing it cuz corporate companies fund them so in the future their designs can be powered by AI which would be faster and efficient in the long run

you are also pretending like for example Chat GPT which was what brought on the Ghibli trend is a paid service, cuz NO… no one paid chatgpt to make those images of them as it was entirely free.

This whole “Oh we are boycotting to they don’t get funded” is stupid cuz we aren’t paying them for AI art anyways.

“that’s a win” yeah Making them spend a few extra dollars isn’t a “Win” :sob:

The “Win” we need is for AI companies to not be able to access our art without payment or permission. anything else is either nonsense, advocating for violence (which is bad) or is something that isn’t discussed here yet

People will keep using AI because is free, huhh

ngl the first part of my argument wasnt on point mb

Nvm it makes sense
