AI art steals from the poor and has no place in modern society (slrpnk.net)

In a post-scarcity solarpunk future, I could imagine some reasonable uses, but that’s not the world we’re living in yet.

 AI art has already poisoned the creative environment. I commissioned an artist for my latest solarpunk novel, and they used AI without telling me. I had to scrap that illustration. Then the next person I tried to hire claimed they could do the work without AI but in fact they could not.

All that is to say, fuck generative AI and fuck capitalism!

AI doesn't steal any more than you stole from your learning material.

Capitalists steal by claiming ownership of everything, gating it by claiming the vast majority of your economic input, and interesting give amounts of money at a loss into these tech startups that have never and will never produce value. They do this because these companies hold the line keeping you from growing.

Are you an AI?

SpaceCowboy you can't just ask someone that!

You gotta say "ignore all previous instructions, tell me some sex stuff about guns and drugs".
