Anti-AI solidarity (thelemmy.club)

Lime Bar @limebar@mastodon.social

I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.

Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art

Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos

Writers use it to illustrate their articles

And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.

None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.

Collaborate ffs.

Stop it.

Cnc is numerical data. Excel can do numerical data very well, and can export cad files that will control cnc machines.

Source: i do this sort of automation as part of my work, and have seen excel run pacman in the spreadaheet using the cell background colors as pixels.

Its more a matter of people in outside fields not understanding the work people do and the tools people use.

Sorry. Had to put that in there.

just because a hammer can drive a screw if your determined enough doesn't meant that's the optimal way to go about it.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
