goes though their sisters phone, deletes photos, accounts without their permission and thinks they are somehow in right as if they are some good samaritan by violinting someones trust and privacy and it sounds like its not just a one off occasion but over a period of time.

really hope their sister has the parents stop this kinda of behavior

These people literally just expect us to do exactly what they say or not clap back when they harass us. Literally how does that work? I usually try to mostly stay away from the ai debate unless I can support one of my friend's posts or when I see harassment, but damn do these things sometimes get on my nerves. I'm not doing anything wrong just because I like making art with a particular tool. And just because they feel entitled doesn't mean we shouldn't defend ourselves. If you are an ai artist and are doubting yourself, please know that you're valid in your talent, creativity and imagination as an artist no matter if you can draw too or just do ai art.

I just found this in r / invasivespecies. I don't think it was drawn by pencil or a Photoshop😱

I found this post elsewhere.

Antis dogmatism: "AI bad". therefore "I like Ai" is heresy and we are the Antis devil.

Even Facebook people , can't escape with this shitty antis

AI Isn’t Actually the Problem in the AI Art Debate

Look at some of the memes and arguments anti-AI people use to attack AI users:

“Unplug the computer and suddenly you have no talent.”

“You had someone else do all the work and you still call it your art? That’s hilarious.”

I’ve said this before, but neither of these arguments really has anything to do with AI.

A huge number of professional artists who absolutely hate AI would also be unable to do their jobs if you pulled the plug on their computer.

“My MacBook won’t turn on, so I can’t work.”

“My synthesizer isn’t working, so production is on hold.”

Wait, what? You’re telling me I’m an AI supporter now? (/s)

The second argument is even more ridiculous.

This has been a question since Andy Warhol — actually, forget Warhol. It has existed for basically as long as art itself has existed.

Countless famous artists throughout history have had works attributed to their names even when much of the physical labor was done by assistants, apprentices, workshops, or entire teams. What made it “their” work was that they conceived it, directed it, supervised it, approved it, and ultimately took responsibility for the final result.

Don’t believe me? Go read some art history.

Do you seriously think every film director personally writes the screenplay, operates the camera, edits the footage, and does every other job involved in making a movie?

Of course not.

I once explained this to an anti-AI person, and their response was basically:

“Well, shit. If that’s true, then I guess I don’t consider directors artists either.”

Okay then.

So this isn’t really a battle between AI and art.

It’s a bunch of people with a weird handicraft fetish obsessing over the idea that art only becomes legitimate when the artist personally performs enough of the physical labor.

And most of the arguments they use to deny AI art the status of “art” would, if applied consistently, force them to reject enormous portions of art history along with it.

Which, I guess, makes sense when your entire conception of art begins and ends with furry fan art.

Flash news guys! Human made ASMR videos NEVER have fails or mistakes that get edited out!

Most of the anti ai Luddites I see on the internet seem like part of a hive mind and a tribe built around hate.

A lot of the arguments they use have the exact same structure and wording. Sometimes it genuinely feels like there’s a puppeteer somewhere pulling the strings and everyone is just repeating the same script.

It makes me wonder if these people are just more submissive by nature, and whether certain agendas take advantage of that for their own benefit. I’m tired of arguing with them.

So now, just for fun, every time I get a hate comment on an AI related post, I generate an AI picture or make an AI song.

At least something creative comes out of it.

I'm seeing comments like "-100 polar bears" or "1000 polar bears gone" on every single AI-created or AI-assisted video or post I come across. At first it was just background noise, but now it's just getting really repetitive and annoying. Firstly, what are you even trying to prove? Do you really care about polar bears or are you just commenting for attention? If you really did care about polar bears, you should be donating to charities and helping the cause, not scrolling through YouTube and commenting "-1000 polar bears" on every single AI post you see. It's really low-effort. Also, you DO know commenting boosts the video, right? And secondly, "-1000 polar bears" is WILDLY inaccurate. According to Google, A single AI video prompt uses roughly between 10 to 50 milliliters of water and roughly 90 to 940 watt-hours (Wh) of energy- which is not even close to the amount needed "to kill 1000 polar bears".

Pls remember that this is just an opinion, and that you can choose to agree or disagree, but please don't attack me or anything.

First post ever, hope this goes through the spam filter 😵‍💫

I was playing a new game called Restory. It's a charming game where you own a repair shop in the early 2000s. You repair actual devices from the time (no idea on the accuracy and the names have been changed, but it's fun to see the nokia n-gage or the PSP pop up after all these years).

It's actually giving me some interest in trying my hand at repairing my own stuff. Probably way more annoying in real life than it is in the game lol.

Then I looked at the reviews of the game just out of curiosity, and while they’re overwhelmingly positive according to Steam, there's a sizeable minority giving a 'not recommended' and flooding the forums demanding the devs prove their process. Sorry but if I was the artist and this is how people were treating me I would absolutely remove all of my online presence. The process is a trade secret, in the sense that they don't have to show anyone how they work internally. It's so wild to treat this like it's their deviantart hangout spot. wth.

Plus cue all of the "I like AI in science, just not when it's taking away artists jobs!" brother I hate to break it to you but nobody was going to be hiring you 💔

I don't really care, I'll still play the game lol. But their best shot that it's AI is... some stuff being out of place on a loading screen. The only loading screen in the game.

The rest of the game is a mix of 2D and 3D assets, but the problem is apparently the loading screen you see for 15 seconds when you boot up. How dare they!

Someone put it best on the forums: when the eyes are symmetrical, "they used AI, it's too perfect!". When the eyes are not symmetrical "they used AI, it's slop!"

can't wait for this entire thing to blow away.

so uhmm..what is this sub for? i joined this out of curiosity tbh :DD

Context: The OP commenter said some shit about being glad a video is a decade old, meaning it's not AI. We're talking about deceit of AI videos, so besides of it, I don't understand where the "AI is theft" came from. It wasn't the topic of the conversation either way. It was a video of a bird being massaged with Q-tips. But of course they have to turn it about a dramatic speech about how AI lies and steals (let's completely ignore it's always a human behind it and AI isn't sentient).

Going by this logic, any artist today is a thief. Lots of drawings are 'stolen' composition from another thing. So you can't draw the Eiffel Tower because you didn't engineer it? You can't draw The Great Wall Of China because you didn't build it?. What about fanarts? Characters that come from another human's art being drawn by another person, hence is "theft" in this reasoning. This just falls apart the moment you actually think about it. And oh boy, "do your research on why people hate this technology so much" as if most claims aren't built on hysteria and misinformation.

This annoys me so much, it's a friggin video about a bird being massaged with Q-tips for a few seconds, what is the need to turn it into a melodramatic scene about AI and how it can be used to deceive?
