Translation: we saw the money we were losing with everyone boycotting and our shareholders lost their shit so now we’re backpedaling as fast as we can. That said, we will continue to make similar terrible decisions going forward as long as it doesn’t affect our bottom line. See ya real soon!

No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck.

I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this;
most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue!
well, we do. so fuck off.

I can't remember the last time I had a day off. It feels like a distant dream.
Tomorrow, I intend to be this pig for at least several hours—lying down in the sun, staring at nothing, listening to an audiobook about volcanoes.

“With AI you never have to draw, paint or write again!” Why does that prospect excite you? We were put on this earth to think and create. Some people are so eager to be liberated from joy.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.
The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.
History is repeating. Pay attention.

Yes AI art is ugly, but that isn't the problem with AI art. AI art will get better and it will still be unacceptable.
AI art is built on stolen art. AI music is built on stolen music. AI videos are built on stolen videos. AI text is built on stolen text.
Across all mediums, fuck AI.

I'm so serious, if you stop using your creativity, imagination and thinking abilities you will lose them. Millions of people willingly giving up their intellects, the very thing that makes them human, is a nightmare straight out of our darkest science-fictions.
