In my opinion, AI just feels like the logical next step for capitalist exploitation and destruction of culture. Generative AI is (in most cases) just a fancy way for cooperations to steal art on a scale, that hasn’t been possible before. And then they use AI to fill the internet with slop and misinformation and actual artists are getting fired from their jobs, because the company replaces them with an AI, that was trained on their original art. Because of these reasons and some others, it just feels wrong to me, to be using AI in such a manner, when this community should be about inclusion and kindness. Wouldn’t it be much cooler, if we commissioned an actual artist for the banner or find a nice existing artwork (where the licence fits, of course)? I would love to hear your thoughts!
Terminal commands, maybe some Python, I don’t remember all of my comments.
I’m a system administrator. I write technical articles for non-technical people and am primarily paid to sit around and keep things from exploding.
I have plenty of free time to get into slap fights on social media and I can probably type faster than I speak, so it isn’t a huge time investment to write a paragraph or two.
The insinuation that I’m a bot is a nice pivot, at least it’s more direct than a vague reference to my comment count. Though, you probably should have went with implying that I have no life or some other personal failing.
Implying that a bot can produce a large volume of coherent text will get you kicked out of the Luddite club…
