AI tech bros seem to think they can just use a program to make what artists & writers can 'make things easily.'
I blame movies & TV. As much as I love movies & TV, they have a history of painting artists & writers as not only being able to MAKE things but also having SPARE TIME.
Folks who are not actively working in creative industries only have the experience of watching/reading/looking at something to go on. When they try to do it themselves they get frustrated it takes so long & is hard.
TV told them writers & artists have time to have adventures!
I don't have any suggestions on how to fix this other than grab people by the face individually and show them how long it takes to make a comic, or an animated show, or write a novel.
That also would take a lot of time. lol
Anyway, trying to make an AI thing to get around actually writing or drawing seems super annoying to me. Especially when I've seen some of those same AI bros getting frustrated their images don't look how they wanted.
The problem isn't the material itself, but how it's consumed. Consumers have low standards and get fooled by A.I. Whereas professionals who genuinely care about their industries can tell the difference. You can see similar scenarios with other industries.
Mass-produced material lacks organic touch which has authentic micro-discrepencies that act as fingerprints.
Tldr; the solution isn't to get rid of A.I. production- but actually tell the differences.
@lucifargundam Similar to my suggestion of "go door to door to explain things to people so they know how hard it is to make art and why the AI stuff is hollow/bad." lol
