AI doesn't stop creative people from creating. it gives creative people an additional tool with which to create
- overgard 3mo ago> "starving artist" is not a new concept Exactly, so why make it worse? Why try to automate an industry when the money you make off killing it wouldn't even cover the cost of your research? > AI doesn't stop creative people from creating. it gives creative people an additional tool with which to create I can't emphasize enough how much actual creative people hate this shit. Here's a relatively balanced take, although the headline spoils it (How AI Poisons Creativity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeCSzEtZcUw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeCSzEtZcUw ). Long story short, the struggle is where creative ideas come from. If you automate away the process you automate away the result.

- FridgeSeal 3mo agoThis is repeatedly the argument rolled out by people desperate to get us to accept it at all costs. Ai doesn’t technically stop me writing code. But it’s sucked so much joy and interest out of it, that I can’t scrape together the motivation to work on side projects anymore. It has a “chilling effect” the effects of which are notoriously indirect to observe.
