This is a bit of a sticking point for me, and itβs such a bummer in so many ways.

I believe art to be a uniquely human endeavor, so anything thatβs created by an AI is by definition not art.
It sucks that it steals from artists.Β It sucks that artists get put in positions where they are now required to defend themselves against AI use accusations.Β It sucks that itβs stealing jobs: draftsmen, voice actors, editors, photographers, videographers, designers, etc.
It sucks that people think writing a prompt that an AI then reads, scans its rolodex of real artists, and spits out a cheap, passionless imitation makes them an artist.
To that last point, the reason that sucks is that AI user is depriving themselves of working on their craft; theyβre giving up on their passion, passing the buck to an automated theft machine, then displaying the work as their own.
Theyβre not just depriving themselves, theyβre depriving the world of another artist.Β Maybe that person puts the time in, develops the skills of their medium, gets creative, and becomes the artist they want to be.Β The world is better with more art in it.
Art is communication.Β If youβre letting a machine do that for you, youβve removed yourself from humanity.Β If we let creative AI do our thinking, writing, drawing, etcβ¦ whatβs left for us?
Whatβs the point of existing if we outsource the cultural enrichment of the human experience to a computer?
One other thing that sucks is that there are people I respect, some of whom are friends of mine, that do use generative AI for creative work.Β It sucks that Iβm afraid Iβll have offended them with this strip.
But to anyone offended, Iβll present a counterargument.Β
When you use AI to create your art, youβre asking us to do something that you wonβt do yourself.Β
An AI βartistβ asks their audience to give their human care an attention to something that they didnβt put human care and attention into making.
And I find that offensive.
Tagged by @shabbytigers (post) and i have some down time right now -
last song listened to: tbh i still want to talk about the Jovial Grandpa Quartet but i just came from the GRASSI Museum's exhibit on the history of musical instruments (especially instrument makers in Leipzig but also Europe more broadly) and it had a variety of audio recordings accompanying each era. The last one was a 1920 jazz song on a player piano, i dont remember the title though
^not the player piano in the recording I heard (that one had a bunch of percussion like cymbals and triangles) but was displayed in the same corner.
favorite colors: i also appreciate the plural but the answer is simply purple. I do like a lot of other colors but purple is the One True Fave
currently watching: Cowboy Bebop and Ikoku Nikkei with the watch group, I'll need to catch up when I'm back....
currently reading: I've been paging through a couple old travellogues I found in Project Gutenberg's Germany List. Especially In An Around Berlin by Minerva Brace Norton, i got through four chapters of that on the plane. Really fascinating to compare her experiences in the 1880s with mine, since we saw some of the same stuff even though the city has been almost entirely rebuilt (arguably multiple times) since then.
Currently working on: I'm on vacation :P
Currently wearing: my Travel Pants, some really threadbare socks, a comfy old tshirt, and my light stripey jacket from Chicago bc the heat wave has passed [in this city at least], it is now 24C and that is jacket weather for me :P
Last search: the history of the trombone, bc i thought they were invented around 1800 but the GASSI museum had some from the 1630s. Turns out they go back to the 15th centuy!!
@peripapaya @animate-mush @spraxinoscope and anyone else who would like to play please consider yourself tagged!
Ooh thank you for tagging me! Because I have a song stuck in my head RIGHT NOW
last song listened to: Tears in the Rain by Half Alive. Yup still on my Half Alive kick! ALWAYS on my Half Alive kick. I freaking love those guys!!
favorite colors: Blue! Also sparkles.
currently watching: Nothing super actively. Just finished Ikoku Nikkei, and I watched the first season of Severance on a plane last week. Unfortunately, I don't have streaming access to the second season so idk if that counts as "currently" watching. Oh and I owe a friend a message bc we have to finish the rest of S2 of live action One Piece together.
currently reading: YAY BOOKS. I'm in the middle of The Dungeon Book right now (it's an advance reader copy) and REALLY liking it so far. Also in the middle of Ken Liu's upcoming short story collection The Passing of the Dragon (also an ARC) and liking it far less. I suspect he already put most of his bangers in previous collections, and these are the leftovers :P And I'm in the middle of a different anthology called The Uncanny Gastronomic which is all about the role of food in horror, which I need to get back to.
currently working on: Just got back from three weeks of travel and trying to figure out which project to dedicate myself to for the next few months at work. Probably going to split time between commissioning work for the mission I've been helping on all spring on but also try to spend least 30% of my time on a proper Science-y research project, starting with revamping my some code I wrote four years ago to look at variable stars, run it on some archival data, and get it ready for when the Roman space telescope launches in two (2!!!!!!) months.
Outside of work, I'm chipping away at the draft of the first arc of another fantasy novel and it's sooooo funnnnnnn :D
currently wearing: pajamas :)
Last search: "are tomatoes safe for rats" <- someone at DnD tonight made reference to Jon Stewart's bit about chicago deep dish pizza being "an above-ground marinara swimming pool for rats." and I wanted to find out if that would be food safe for the rats.
I'm going to tag @lumsel and @hauntedpurple aaaaaaaaand @allseeinggoggles if ya feel like it
Oh.
