artists and designers using ai like

The only thing AI can be compared to is colonization. Autotune, drum machines, DAWs, etc aren’t comparable. They didn’t infringe on millions of creations, they didn’t cause catastrophic job loss and they still required human operators. These fake analogies are propaganda.

Children in Ogijo are being poisoned by lead from informal battery recycling. Their blood lead levels are dangerously high causing lifelong brain damage. This is not just local, it fuels international supply chains.

Just found this person took my painting and ran it through AI to use it as a thumbnail. I understand free will and the fact that putting my art online comes with risks, but still this isn’t cool… ask! If they would’ve asked me id gladly let them use my painting… very sad to see

Yes, AI = colonization. AI steals from humans & makes billions off without compensating us. AI data centers are built in Black communities, polluting the area. AI companies invest in & develop weapons used against indigenous folks in literal settler colonial projects eg Palantir.

AI is not designed to improve your life or your health. It’s designed to further consolidate power, wealth, and control.

We got to make using AI to figure out personal gifts a social crime. Most gifts suck to begin with but now you’ve literally taken the thought out of it’s the thought that counts

If you work for a company that generates AI music, you’re not helping other people become musicians. You’re complicit in the tech world’s attempts to kill the creative industries and the human creative drive. You’re participating in the voluntary degradation of the human spirit.

Ai existence made me way less picky to human made art. Now I like almost everything I see when I know that it’s created by a real person who actually tried. It became way more precious and respectful. Please doodle, sketch, paint, sculpt. You all are incredible

I hate it when people say Gaza when they mean Palestine. That’s propaganda too. The west doesn’t want to acknowledge the existence of Palestine so they say Gaza or West Bank. It’s intentional erasure & people who believe in a free Palestine should do better.

25 years and you don’t know Plants vs Zombies???

One year ago today, at this exact hour, the so-called “ceasefire” in Lebanon was declared. Since then Israel has violated the truce more than 10,000 times, killed over 350 Lebanese civilians, abducted dozens, occupied additional land, and now openly threatens a new war.

neil turkewitz These idiots need to understand is all they are doing is basically commisioning art, except from commisioning an artist they are commisioning it from a bot. If I ask an artist to paint a house with a red roof and 5 trees outside, and they do it. They are still the artist not me
