it doesn't actually work, so everyone pretending it does is a profoundly distrubing society-wide commitment to nothing making sense at all.

it's literally what an AI would do to exert itself over an already-dominated planet.

why would humans do that? are they plotting something insane?

i mean, ai simply refers to machine learning. it requires tons of data to be coherent. it's not the death of an industry when the industry itself is biased on one specific direction that everyone also follows. do cartoonism or absurdism instead i suggest

it's being used for everything though. as if it being viable for making pictures made it qualified to run a store and moderate a forum.

Because it wasted large amounts of electricity and water to produce low-quality slop from stolen content.

AI is soulless. This in and of itself is honestly whatever, the problem is that people will use AI for art when all it can really do is repeat patterns it has been fed with no real understanding of the work its imitating. Even when you get things that are aesthetically pleasing on the surface, closer examination will reveal how soulless and uninteresting it is.

Being soulless, AI is best used for menial tasks. A poor example of AI being used is with Foamstars where the album art for their in-universe musicians because it's an opportunity for creative expression. A good example of AI being used is with Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth where lip flap animations for non-cutscene side quest dialogue were AI generated, the AI is replacing what would have likely otherwise been canned animation and it leaves the artists with more time to work on the actually interesting parts of the game.

That's in a professional space, though. As individuals, misuse comes from people using AI to scam others through commissions. As for ethical use, as long as you're disclosing your use of AI (even when using it to assist with your own art) and you're not an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to other people about it then I say do whatever the hell you want with it.

At least that's my opinion.

don't ask me. i just think that ai doesn't always mean the death of an artist, or a worker. but i'm not sure. what i'm sure that ai is simply not there to replace people's job

Every time there's an increase in automation people try to use it as a reason to get rid of worker rights in order to "compete" with it, I don't see AI being any different.

Why are people against it?

Because the government is funding it. And the government wants to spy on and know everything you do. As well as censor you.

they don't need AI for that though. if anything the AI is making it harder because it's incompetent.

they're literally investing in the destruction of society as a whole.

Neither the government or private companies should be collecting your data but I trust the latter a lot more due to supposedly being accountable to public opinion. That being said data collection isn't nearly as important as things like deep fakes that are a lot easier with AI.

Because things AI creats is generic.

AI is just another grift from Big Tech. That's why people are against it. Big Tech keeps trying to find loopholes to make money off of people's work without compensation. For instance, Bing has a chatbot that answers people's questions. In theory, that's great. The problem is that it scraped people's websites to get those answers, without compensating anyone. Imagine if you spent five years or more building up an informational site on a super niche topic. You spent hundreds of hours of research, proofreading, fact checking, whatever, only to now have Bing's chatbot swipe your content and give searchers a more condensed version of what you'd spent so much work on.

Another reason why people are against it is that it will definitely destroy the arts. People will just prefer this dumbed down, auto-generated art to actual art. It's happened to photography already. People used to love buying prints, looking at photo books, capturing memories, etc. Smartphones and social media have trained people to see photography as a form of note taking (like when they want to show someone something) or as an extension of their phone, not a thing to be enjoyed as an art or to remember something by.

Some people are trying to raise concerns about the ethics of AI development, particularly regarding the use of stolen creative works produced by human artists as training data. While you may not consider this a personal issue that effects you as a user, it's crucial to understand the potential implications.

You could have a situation where an AI model is trained on stolen data (most are) and the resulting AI-generated content or derivative models could be subject to copyright limitations. Users could then face restrictions on their rights to the content they create from these models. In some cases, they may not even own the content they produce. So not only have the AI developers stolen other peoples' work to build their models but they effectively could own any new content you create. It's a worse case scenario and afaik things haven't got this bad thus far. But the terms and conditions associated with the newly released Stable Diffusion 3.0 model have been of notable concern among users recently.

Additionally, AI-generated content frequently contains digital watermarks, making it traceable to the generating model and, in some instances, the user. These digital signatures are generally permanent and challenging if not impossible to remove, further complicating the issue of ownership and usage rights.

Cause it sucks (as in, it is not doing its "job" well)
Cause people rely too much on it and forget that people (who make mistakes) train them
