Hmm, does fit the bill, thanks!
I remember seeing somewhere that there was Malcolm X like figure in India along with Gandhi, am I tripping?
I see you are one of the downvoted posters in that thread, is that why you are so dismissive of artists? Is it socialist to call people “petit-bourgeois” just because you disagree with them? Looking through that thread, they had some great points.
It seems like your view of artists is some kind of high art gallery artist who splashes paint on a board and then gets 5$ million from it. Or you somehow think the profits at marvel is given to the artists instead of the shareholders. 95% of artists are working class just like you and me.
Also, we are not in a communist utopia, so cheering for technological advances like this is basically cheering for mass poverty.
Ai does not just affect Americans.
Here’s a petition from Latin American artists.
A summit for Latin American artists, EU, Japan, SE Asia.
And anecdotally, I’ve heard from artists in other countries too. How it’s affecting them and their workplace/livelihoods. So it’s not just Americans complaining, AI will probably screw over the global south more than the global north.
Didn’t realize a lot of yall hated artists so much, so much for workers solidarity.
Does a person know how to create a new dish or know how to better the flavour if all they do is microwave frozen food? I feel the creation of such a shortcut will destroy fundamental skills in the next generation (same with writing currently, as students are getting AI to write/cheat essays).
However, I want to bring up the counterpoint that under capitalism, art is already being maximally removed from public life and either reduced to marketable commodities, or confined to private spaces as a hobby, and this has nothing to do with any influence on behalf of AI.
I fail so see how artists can get better at art without dedicating most of their time to it (ie; creating bad art sometimes for their job). Sorry if this comes off as dick-ish.
Is it just me or do so called “leftist” or “progressive” spaces in the west do not give a shit about Asian american people or their issues?
