Always instructional how eager a lot of people are to not pay artists. I'm guessing the mood will be less celebratory when we can stop paying most programmers.

- alright2565 3y agoThis article is about replacing programmers with AI. I, personally, will celebrate, since it'll allow me to explore opportunities I would not have time for on my own. And I'm not worried for my career, since 99% of people will still be unable to think and write coherently enough to use the AI tools. And I think the reality here is not so much being unwilling to pay artists as the budget being extremely low. If I've got an art budget of $10 for a quick experiment like this, I'm not going to hire an artist, I'm just going to use the circle tool in GIMP.

- somsak2 3y agoIt's interesting how most don't consider programmers artists, even though coding requires quite a bit of creativity.
- vunderba 3y agoDid you read the actual post? They use generative AI to replace both programmers AND artists. And if anything programmers have been at risk of replacement FAR longer than traditional artists. Low code solutions in the form of Squarespace for web programming, AirTable for CRUD, Unity for making games, the list goes ON AND ON.
