Imo it seems this is what generative AI currently optimises for — cutting the humans out of the creative/similar processes. It’s depressing, and I fully understand why artists of all sorts get upset about it. Especially because many te

Meta: What is it about this post that attracted so many flippant comments? Non-meta: Why does the US have so few of these ships? Were more just not produced? I didn’t see an answer in the article but it’s possible I missed it.
