Mr. Pattinson, I have the role of a lifetime for you in a few years. Oscar layup.
Happy birthday to the Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov who casually deciphered the Mayan script in 1952 and got pissed when editors removed his cat as co-author on papers or cropped her out of his author headshot (the only picture of himself he even liked)

An image is sacred to these people if it has market value, even if that value exists only within a fictional economic system.
But if it requires a human artist with their flesh and bone hands to take dozens of labor hours to produce it, then AI slop works just fine as a replacement.

the reality is that they have already won & they do not want to change anything. they want a strong republican party, as they say often. the only time they put any work in is to sabotage candidates running to the left of them, otherwise they just sit around doing insider trading

As a society, do we really want to consider skilled artists using their time to sell people Coca-Cola to be the peak of personal achievement? C'mon, man.
