i cant believe so many leftists on this site believe tht anyone anti ai (not pro IP laws just anti ai) is a dumb luddite scared of new tech and cant at all be people concerned abt how automation is stripping away the minimal ability artists had to survive under capitalism

hell im worried abt the fact tht like every AI art program designer has like also been used to better face recognition software and explicitly started at a time in which the state realized its face rec software was lacking when it came to stuff like masks

like? why is it controversial tht those programs and their creators are vile pieces of shit? yeah if we lived in a post capitalist society ai art could be a fun new way of doing things but rn its actively costing artists their jobs and increasing the reach of the security state
