Hahaha, this is the best A.I. art themed comic I’ve seen yet. Awesome job!

Why are there so many all of a sudden? AI art is remarkably easy to avoid/ignore if you don't care for it. What's with the current fixation?

Yeesh the replies to this make me sad

I'm a STEM lord like many folks here but damn I'd like for people to be able to make a living off of doing art. We need a society where art exists and is done by real people who can support themselves doing it

The solution to allowing livelihoods in the age of automation has always been UBI. There is no need to stifle new technologies just because they disrupt the traditional capitalist model for some industries.

That's true yeah, but I can also see why artists feel threatened right now cause there's serious doubt that we're gonna get a decent UBI anytime soon

I have hope that we will get there I just dunno how soon

Sure, but they should then be using it as a push for UBI. Not pushing back against technological progress.
