Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

A poorly made AI video endorsing an orange tinted politician interrupted my tiktok scrolling. How rude.

well your first problem was being on tiktok to begin with

My first problem is the dancing cat girls on tiktok are not in my living room.

There's another one of those AI videos. A girl in a wheelchair asking for people to follow and comment. Do these video creators think they'll get enough followers to make money? I don't understand the point. Even the Trump ones have little to no value to him or his regime.

We have a rehomed jack russell terror in our house. Having a dog around is something that'll take some getting used to. Taking the dog outside is going to take some getting used to.

No interest engaging with that thread again, but thats easily one of the more idiotic questions I've seen on here and I'm kind of shocked you've not been moderated.

In more positive news, with the reno process begun, the NFL season winding down, I'll have mental bandwidth for my Shadowdark stuff!

I didn't take is as a thorough or in-depth take down of “AI” generally, but rather specifically about “AI” and art. Especially given the middle section on even if X were fixed, I'd still have a problem with “AI” art. The point is still worth taking to heart. We don't make art for the product, we make art because the process of doing so improves and enriches us as people.

Like I said, I understand it's a personal exploration of his feelings, so the things that are off putting to me aren't intended. I don't even disagree with most of what he says here. It's just, for me, very difficult to separate the fact that his core struggle with AI is that it denies people the opportunity to become artists with the fact that he's a very wealthy man. And that dissonance only gets worse when he brings up John Henry. AI guys already try to drive a wedge between blue collar labor and the sorts of skilled workers who are currently worrying about AI by saying the latter didn't care about automation while it was replacing the former, so when he says the machine won and he would choose to live in the world where the machine won it left me with a bad taste in my mouth even though I know it wasn't intentional.

Yeah. I think you’re reading way too much into this and wildly missing his point. Cheers.
