genAI apologists are so similar in mentality to the police bootlickers that regurgitate police news statements as if they’re the truth.

Krafton is lying to you and just because you saw them throw in an “ethical AI” buzzword you fell for it because you’ve been conditioned to be gullible and politically neutral when it comes to worker exploitation in the industry.

They’ve been caught ethicalwashing their Stable Diffusion use as being “an in-house proprietary model”. SD is the farthest thing possible from “ethical” genAI (it’s inherently an oxymoron anyways).

Here is them on YouTube boasting about how many workers they can lay off now that they’ve adopted outsourced exploited labor from outside artists for free.

TIL starvation is a choice. you are disgusting

they aren’t killing themselves, the system of exploitation is. please stop shifting the blame to some of the poorest people on earth who can choose between shitty jobs like this and starving

Reminder that the USSR collapsed because they got their asses kicked in Afghanistan

these are true hackers living the DIY spirit, much respect to them!

yeah, a bunch of unions have already put out support statements for BDS. list them as an example for your own union to follow

maybe they could use a donation model like fediverse instances do

as a bazzite user, it’s kinda ironic that they’re dependent on GitHub cloud to keep their updates going. I wonder if they have a non-apartheid version?

start with the stuff that’s easy to get rid of and the rest will snowball down the line.

as for your workplace using Microsoft, nobody expects you as an individual to force your company to stop using them. the best way to achieve that in my opinion is through unions and collective actions.

vampires can’t enjoy gangbangs in Transylvania because the local cum soup gives them a tummy ache

promoting indigenous linguistics is absolutely good, the nuance is that some of those languages are a closed practice so it would be disrespectful for outsiders to speak them. it all comes down to autonomy which i think you’re agreeing with in the end of your reply

if you think the articles are too long then make your own that are shorter and appeal to AI bros

Native and mestizo aren’t the same thing. Mestizos are the people that assimilated and therefore enjoy privilege over indigenous people. identifying as mestizo is kind of the opposite of being indigenous because you’re adopting a colonial identity.

We don’t go asking Italians before we put stuff in Latin.

except Italians aren’t being genocided by any state for being Italian. Latin would be Spanish in this context, not Nahuatl. Latin was imposed through colonization around the world. And before anyone brings up the Aztec empire, it hasn’t existed in centuries.

Mexico forces Spanish upon indigenous groups to bring them closer to the conquistador ideal of a good Mexican citizen. them appropriating Nahuatl words to seem cool is more akin to racist Republicans stealing words from Black American English to market their products or politics.

Mexico is a bit different from America in their approach to assimilation in that they strive for mestizaje (making every Mexican mixed). You can see the ideology behind it in La raza cósmica.

I think it should be obvious why erasing indigenous cultures through state violence isn’t a benign thing.

oh, so it isn’t just America that erases indigenous cultures by appropriating random words from that language on their cars

I’ve yet to come across an AI shill that can demonstrate a modicum of reading comprehension. none of your points disprove what I said

“we’ve open sourced the nuclear button, Viva la resistance 🛠️” 🤦🏻‍♀️

wdym by process will become more important than product?

yeah what it leads to in practice is the original art style of the victim being scrutinized due to “looking like AI art”.

like, no, the AI actually looks like this art style because so many techbros stole it without crediting the artist and now everybody thinks that the style belongs to the AI overlords.

it’s happened to me a few times where I see gorgeous art and I second-guess myself for a split second when I see certain digital art styles.

that is a horrible experience to have as an art enjoyer and concerning how few so-called “tech enthusiasts” actually value the human beings that led to them enjoying art.

they’ve been so brainwashed by AI propaganda and bootstraps ideology that they can’t imagine a future that’s worse than today because corporate tech futurism so often labels cyberpunk futures as utopia

except actual humans do work on that and get royalties for shadow producing those pre-recorded sets. not comparable

except AI isn’t human, obviously. so corporations can deploy millions of instances to churn out slop while crediting no one, thus erasing all the cultures that went into said slop.

while all the remaining artists become even more impoverished from the devaluing of their art. there’s a name for this behavior if a human was doing it, it’s called being a scab

didn’t know JK Rowling is into Lemmy now
