In much the same way, we (currently) value artists because they achieve artistically in ways that are (currently!) regarded as incompatible with the most bare-bones uses of AI trotted out as paradigmatic human ersatz

Consider marathon runners; their achievement consists in *running* a specified distance - of course they could use other means, like a car or bike! but they wouldn't be praised for running a marathon in such cases. The achievement is predicated on fulfilling specific conditions

One month anniversary since Red more red came out on @DISPLAYseries . I try and explore some of the intentions behind the beginning of the project, returning to playing instruments, and this work's relationship to painting. displayseries.bandcamp.com/album/red-more… Link to read below

a riddle - should aesthetic appreciation diminish if literary writers "finish the last 3rd of their works" with aid from LLMs even if the LLM results are indiscernible from unaided efforts? if yes, should aesthetic appreciation still diminish even if LLM aided results are better?

I don't know whether GPT 5.2 can generate a lyrical essay publishable in a top literary magazine from scratch, but it can definitely finish the last 3rd of one for you. This is (if I'm right) both a fact about GPT 5.2 and about the state of the lyrical-essay genre

In short, with or without audiences: - Artistic practices are legit because they are embedded in broader social practices - Art is meaningful and can be part of living a good life - Artists need not pursue audiences I welcome any feedback - enjoy: ubinas.substack.com/p/alienated-ar…

Many of us experience doubt about the issue of "lack-of-audience" at some point, which, if left unchecked, can really demotivate and prevent us from engaging in one of the potentially most meaningful pursuits available. That need not be the case!

I don't think it is pointless to make art without an audience - even though it might sometimes feel that way! Too often these discussions are dominated by attention economy paradigms and I think artists have better conceptual resources available to them ubinas.substack.com/p/alienated-ar…

for some works/practices effort will play a more or less meaningful role in interpretation. criticism‘s role is to determine in which areas and to which extent an analysis of effort, however that is understood, is relevant.

a return to "craft" might be a response to exactly this phenomena. by actively signaling "effort", some artists differentiate their work from "low-effort-seeming" work - actual effort involved notwithstanding. however, effort need not be viewed as art-legitimizing factor
𒐪@SHL0MS

i think the increasingly pervasive idea that effort is what legitimizes art breaks down when you consider that the best conceptual artists often actively aim to obfuscate how much effort goes into producing theirs

@MikePepi assuming his claims are true, wouldn't his success be predicated on the lack of media literacy of his audience? He is a parasite of the hapless contemporary media consumer, who is flourishing in a socio-economic environment with no incentive to raise the standards of the public

Not ten years ago you would see this person thrown in jail. Now he’s just the mean opinion of people on here. LLMs really broke some of you. Who wants this? Who enabled this?
