@JamesAllenMaxey For me it’s frustrating because some of my favorite writers are pumping out work twice as fast. At 1/10th the quality.

The main reason I'm hardening my opinions against AI in writing is because every single argument I've seen made for using it boils down to "I'm lazy," and "resistance is futile."

@Nicky_Bonez @VallerieMomo But you have to realize when you say “creative fields” ai chuds hear “sissy liberal arts” not “mega smart cool coders” like they would say that architects are not artists for example, because that’s a “stem field”

@VallerieMomo All the anti-AI artists I know oppose AI in all creative fields. These people just love to lie.

This perfectly encapsulates the issue I have with people defending generative AI. They fail to realize that “artist” includes everything listed here. Drawing is not the only art form

@NemeHexOffical @VallerieMomo Bro what are you talking about. Disliking lead paint or asbestos aren’t “virtue signaling” hell even most vegans have legitimate reasons for their beliefs. Virtue signaling is when you are grifting. It’s when you say something you don’t actually believe.

@VallerieMomo @JTentako itself as proof of moral failure. So disagreement = not virtue signaling by default. Performative moral posturing for image, approval, or social points = virtue signaling... So in this case it pretty much is because that is how you guys treat it while pretending its opinionated

Being against genAI is virtue signaling now? What happened?

@NemeHexOffical @VallerieMomo Name 1 way generative AI is Positive for cultural advancement. We are pushing against something that’s harmful to the environment, the economy, art and literature, education, and sanity. It’s not irrational to dislike something that is harmful.

@VallerieMomo @JTentako Not a good technology to accept according to whom? The unhinged people, with skynet syndrome? When you push against something you have to be, rational and not emotional when you push against something.. AI is pushed for people to use.. but you don't have to use it its that simple

@OhItsTeddy @EZE3D It’s not a tantrum. Multiple billion dollar companies illegally stole data from individual consumers, and used to to create a product they are selling. If you stole lemons from someone’s tree and started a lemonade business you’d be a THIEF.

@EZE3D @JTentako Alright, let’s loop back in 3 years and see where we’re at. Not talking down, I just think most ai tantrum throwers think too highly of themselves and don’t really have the work to back up the attitude

People getting mad at those criticizing gen AI need to stfu. Nothing's stopping you from using it. There are plenty of valid reasons for people to oppose the tech. People don't owe you their support. Nor do they owe a new technology blind trust, adoption or social validation.

@MysterySolvents A homeless Palestineian man who gives foreigners and disabled people handouts? Theyd shoot him dead.

What would happen if Jesus came back and told the Magas that Trump is evil?

@GekOverlord @EZE3D Well except for everything product adding ai features with no opt out options and the government fast tracking data centers being built everywhere bypassing votes against it. We are being forced to interact with AI unwillingly on a daily basis.

@EZE3D People getting mad at those using gen AI need to stfu. Nothing's making you use it. There are plenty of valid reasons for people to use the tech. People don't owe you an explanation. Nor do they owe your opinion blind trust, adoption or social validation.

@OhItsTeddy @EZE3D It’s bad for the environment and was created by thieves. Why would you use it?

@EZE3D Lolllll People getting mad at those using gen ai need to stfu…… Why don’t you all just stfu and get better at your craft?

@EZE3D It’s really crazy because people who we skeptical of the internet or smartphones were pretty quickly given examples of how it would benefit their lives. AI skeptics are told to shut up and embrace it “or else” and never given any reason to like the tech

@34R0CKETS @NBinted Honestly I didn’t use twitter for like a year or more after they implemented ai. I would not be on twitter at all if ai companies didn’t literally sabotage every social platform that didn’t implement ai.

@NBinted You use twitter. It runs on AI

How am I virtue signalling??? If I know a game has GenAI, I’m not playing. I pay actual artists for commissions. My partner and a shit ton of my closest friends are artists. I draw in my free time. Just because THEY don’t act on any positive beliefs, doesn’t mean nobody does.

@Kougeru @NBinted If you have no virtue every virtuous action looks like a scam.

@NBinted Lately it feels like speaking out AT ALL about things might be their definition of "virtue signalling". They don't understand that some people truly care about things and want to make the world better.

@NBinted People without morals assume everyone is like them. They think only an idiot would not be insanely selfish for shortsighted gain

@gabrielcastrovo @Merrydawg Also the point is so dumb in a world where the switch over to cars killed our environment and lobbying from car companies destroyed our infrastructure. THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENING WITH AI

@Merrydawg "Oh, so you'd advocate against cars to preserve horses?" is such a dumb argument because we CAN advocate for cars while also preserving horses. Horses are living creatures. Cars are not. People are people ffs and have spent there lives growing there talents. AI literally cannot.

Some people have called me "performative" for being against the use of AI art and animation. I'm the CEO of an art studio, and I'd stand to save a lot of money if I just replaced every artist with AI. And yet, I don't. Because it's the wrong thing to do. I believe it's healthier for the industry and for our company to preserve the sanctity of human labour and creativity in lieu of cheap shortcuts. Some say, "Oh, so you'd advocate against cars to preserve horses?" That's a false equivalency. I'd advocate against replacing horses if your alternative to a horse was an AI horse that was faster, but hallucinated roads that don't exist and needed thrice the food. We should seek to preserve human labour in every way we can. Maybe AI has uses in some fields to reduce workloads for professionals, but I do not believe that field should be the world of entertainment and the arts. The purpose of automation should be to lessen the workload for the jobs we do not want to do, to give us all time and resources to focus on pursuing the passions that we love. We shouldn't automate art so we have more time for labour. It is backwards and will lead to a worse world.

@CaptainCabinetz @MASKurouka It’s so interesting how people without strong morals have decided that any strong moral stance is “performative” or “woke” like nah man you just stand for nothing.

I think when push comes to shove, people WILL care more about AI issues that directly affect their own lives over everything else.. Ironmouse is a VTuber that LOVES art… So of course she’s going to care about art and generative AI affecting creatives. The same way that If someone works in a restaurant, they’re probably going to care more about automation, self-checkouts, AI robots replacing service jobs etc . We are HUMAN and we can’t give equal emotional energy to every issue every minute of the day!!! I’m seeing so many ppl say Ironmouse is entitled and thinks “she’s above everyone else” because she cares about gen AI..? Like no shit she’s allowed to feel strongly about something directly affecting her industry You would too mf 🫵

@V_S0u7 @emimhok Like jp members don’t interact with holostars often and there’s been controversy about them refusing to be in events with male streamers. And i think one of them graduated because of having a boyfriend? I don’t know all the specifics but i know that’s one of the culture differenc

@JTentako @emimhok Gender segregation? What?

한국 방송인도 아니고 EN지부에 안건 처맡겨놓고 한국맥락으로 해석을 왜해야하는지 나 진짜 한국언데도 이해가안되네 ^ㅅ^;; 영어로 가볍게 쓰이는 문제 없는 발언이란건 게임 방송 몇번만 봐도 알겠다 아 정말 내가 다 창피해 죽을거같아 니네는 타겟층이 애초에 아니세요

@ZeroFakers @emimhok I know she wasn’t actually criticizing anything. But the KR tweets I’ve seen seem to imply that criticism would be justification to fire her. So even playing devils advocate for their interpretation of what she said i don’t understand their logic

@JTentako @emimhok Yes but this was not the case what she said was a pun (a not really funny pun since the execution was a bit weak to me) It started after she got into a fight with a boar and made a boar pun then while killing the boar she said the boar was boaring as she went for the kill.

@V_S0u7 @emimhok I watch translated clips occasionally. I don’t watch them enough to notice a lack of criticism. I’m aware there’s some sticking point cultural differences (like gender segregation) but I would have thought they would be able to criticize whatever they want

@JTentako @emimhok Have you never watched any of the JPs before?

@ulsaeng131398 @meta_2212 @FreeSouluz This is interesting but is so contradictory to the point of paid advertising in the west. i don’t understand how there could be such an extreme cultural difference.

@JTentako @meta_2212 @FreeSouluz 한국인들도 다 그 말장난은 알아들었음. 근데 한국 문화에서는 돈을 받고 광고하는 입장에서 말장난일지라도 부정적인 의견을 피력하는걸 예의없다고 생각해.

Feel like I should share my two cents for this ER drama so if this reaches out into KR this is who I am: I was a top player IN NA ER for around 5-6 years reaching who did educational content to help newer players learn and improve on the game (more recently)

@NemeHexOffical @VallerieMomo The thing is it’s not really a personal choice though. The technology was built on theft and shoveled down everyone’s throats by force. It’s more like if vegans stole the veggies out of your garden and then made everything you buy have tofu in it made of the stolen veggies.

@JTentako @VallerieMomo What became woke was the fact.. that its like veganism.. its a personal choice, but the anti ai people feel the need to shove that personal choice to others besides themselves. Notice if you left people alone people would say nothing.. but since you don't then push back exists.

@IvanatorDaGreat @emimhok I think pokemon is the ultimate example of good game turned lazy cashgrab. But yeah fans across the world have been giving them WAY too much credit. At this rate gen 10 is gonna have micro transactions as an evolution gimmick

@JTentako @emimhok That's probably 80% Bandai Namco though if you're thinking of Anime IPs turned into cash grab games, the other 20% is gachas which include this A staple example is Nintendo particularly the Pokemon IP, the thing is though both overseas and Japan consumers are bootlickers lol
