fetishized urban spectacle

It bothers me so much how most AI discourse singles out AI art as a particularly bad thing when that's one of the least harmful uses of AI. If you're going to be talking about how AI is terrible at least talk about the actually harmful things it could be used for like mass surveillance or layoffs or something instead of "it makes bad art"

I keep seeing people act as though the solution to these problems is to just harass anyone who uses AI until it magically goes away, and that isn't going to work. Sending death threats towards random hobbyists (and don't pretend this doesn't happen, I have seen it happen with my own two eyes) is not going to help anyone and does not address any of the actual problems with AI. The actual problems with AI have nothing to do with consumers and acting as though shaming people for using it is going to fix any of those problems is misguided at best.
