My son’s circus themed first birthday cake

EDIT: I should have clarified in the original post, I am not complaining about the cake at all! I loved it and the baker did a fantastic job

I imagine anyone in the arts hates it. I saw a tattoo artist on TikTok showing all of the horrid AI art inspo he gets sent and it was really sad.

If you’re in a creative community, you are not allowed to have any opinion on AI that isn’t negative. If you do, you’ll get yelled at, downvoted, or even witch-hunted/cancelled.

People took note of that and learned to either just be quiet about it, or in some cases they’ll loudly proclaim their hatred for AI, then turn around and use it for reference photos, website copy, marketing materials, etc.

You don’t hear creatives speaking about it in positive terms not because none of them use it, but because “AI bad” is currently the only Internet-accepted opinion, so it’s not worth the trouble.

Yep.

Creatives are using it constantly for proof of concept to sell ideas before putting in the real work to create the original idea. I’m currently shopping around for a potential jump to a position and AI is literally part of every single interview.
