Cameras have not replaced paintings, assuming this is the inference.
You wouldn't have known that, going by all the bellyaching and whining from the artists of the day.
Guess what, they got over it. You will too.
- kranner 9mo ago> Guess what, they got over it. You will too. Prediction is difficult, especially of the future.
- CamperBob2 9mo agoIt ain't over 'til it's over. And when you come to a fork in the road, take it.

You conveniently omitted my next sentence, which contradicts your position and reads thusly: Instead, they serve only to be an additional medium for the same concerns quoted ... > You will too. This statement is assumptive and gratuitous.
- CamperBob2 9mo agoUsername checks out, at least.
- salawat 9mo agoLogic needs to be shown the door on occasion. Sometimes via the help of an ole Irish bar toss.
- CamperBob2 9mo agoThere are other sites. Other doors, on other bars.

- lkey 9mo agoWhat stole the joy you must have felt, fleetingly, as a child that beheld the world with fresh eyes, full of wonder? Did you imagine yourself then, as your are now, hunched over a glowing rectangle. Demanding imperiously that the world share your contempt for the sublime. Share your jaundiced view of those that pour the whole of themselves into the act of creation, so that everyone might once again be graced with wonder anew. I hope you can find a work of art that breaks you free of your resentment.

- exodust 9mo agoPlot twist. The comment you love is the cynical one, responding to someone who clearly embraces the new by rising above caution and concern. Your GPT addition has missed the context, but at least you've provided a nice little paradox.
- CamperBob2 9mo agoWhat I especially enjoy is seeing those people accuse AI of being a "parrot" or a "mindless next-token predictor." Inevitably, these accusations are levied in comments whose every thought and token could have been lifted verbatim from any of a thousand such comments over the past few years, accompanied by the rusty squeak of goalpost wheels.
- balamatom 9mo agoThank you for the AI warning, so I didn't have to read that.
- kuerbel 9mo agoAh well, I'm neurodivergent and it’s challenging for me to write a comment while remembering that others don’t have access to my thoughts and might interpret things differently. And it's too late to edit it now What I wanted to show is that, clearly different from a camera or other devices, AI can copy originality. OPs comment was pretty original in it's wording, and gpt came pretty close imo. It really wasn't meant as a low effort comment
