Cool how it went from "AI is just a tool bro, why u so mad bro, are you a luddite why are you against better Photoshop?" jackasses to
"But but AI is an integral part of my human identity, you don't understand what it means to be born with an unconditional love for AI, you don't understand what it means to be looked at funny for liking AI, why do you hate us? We`re just victims being persecuted for our identity".
Its just pathetic because it was always clear the whole tool argument was never going to convince most people so now they try to appropriate other issues, try try to appeal to our common sense of fairness. But then you ask them where was that fairness and kindness when you just support billionaire corporations stealing data and our creative work to create your "tool".
As if photoshop necessitated millions of people working for free or a massive planet destroying level of infraestructure to function. The only irony is Adobe embracing AI may well turn it into that lol.
And of course another day, another instance of bastardization of the word "AI", LLMs should be banned on this alone. Machine learning and other approaches are not inherently evil, but turning LLM into "AI" is already doing irreversible harm.
