I had a good flow here in terms of structure and writing, thanks for appreciating it! I agree about the clashing colors and rough lines, I have been meaning to clean this up and adjust the colors at some point to make it complete. Thanks for checking it out!

As someone that used to use xchat regularly, I feel very old seeing just how long it has not even been updated…

AI still out here taking everything. Only the corporations can steal. Maybe they didn’t like that it was then given to people for free, instead sold again.

It was an ok read for me, but mostly because I enjoyed the art rather than relating to the entirety of the sentiment.

I’m an artist and I find AI art evocative and illustrating things in a way that I wish that I could illustrate, but feel that is only because it comes from real human artists. I agree that it is a void in terms of difficulty to process, but there is still skill involved in both using search engines and describing something to an llm. A minute amount of skill, but still a skill.

I hate AI art because it is stealing from artists, not because it doesn’t feel right. It can have a million iterations and only needs to get it right once to count as feeling right to me. The relationship between the content and their artists to the ultimate product is removed, this to me is the wrongfulness of claiming new art from it. It is just stealing in a more wind-about manor. This isn’t like generating fractal art or something.

After all these years of corporations fucking up the literal social fabric and and how we communicate over IP law, for them to turn around and steal everything and just get a pass is an extra slap in face. Stealing only gets allowed2 one way in our society, and AI is just another example of that.

I’m honestly surprised to not see this take more from others and felt like i needed to mention it.

edit: emphasized that by making AI art taking skill, I only mean just a minute amount.

I hate ai slop, but slop in a shitpost? im not sure how much i care. i expect a shitpost to be be shitty. there was more work in your shitpost than one of those communities that serve automated slop, so i won’t fault a shitposter for using ai here.
