Redditors Vent and Complain When People Mock Their "AI Art" (futurism.com)

Setting aside the usual arguments on the anti- and pro-AI art debate and the nature of creativity itself, perhaps the negative reaction that the Redditor encountered is part of a sea change in opinion among many people that think corporate AI platforms are exploitive and extractive in nature because their datasets rely on copyrighted material without the original artists' permission. And that's without getting into AI's negative drag on the environment.

Derivative is not bad, it’s simply a matter of fact. Our creations and ideas are based off that which inspires us. Things don’t need to be unique or revolutionary to be enjoyable and that’s the most important quality, that we enjoy what we consume.

Bougie shit is that which takes itself too seriously. Its a teacher going on about the meaning in a book the writer says was never intended to be anything more than an enjoyable story, the critic raving about the depth of a jar filled with piss and a crucifix inside of it, the stage performer that thinks themselves better than the garage band made up of 2 kids and an old laptop, the Scorsese‘s going on about how their film is better than a Nolan and raging people aren’t watching his shit,etc.

It’s the part of art that isn’t creativity, but self wankery.

I call this, "Derivative is not bad, it’s simply a matter of fact. Our creations and ideas are based off that which inspires us. Things don’t need to be unique or revolutionary to be enjoyable and that’s the most important quality, that we enjoy what we consume."

I'm enjoying our collaboration.
