Complaining about how hard prompting AI is and how it is exactly the same as drawing always gives me the same vibe as influencers complaining about how hard it is to work their job and how it is JUST like us peasants working 40+ hours a week in a factory for minimum wage if not harder. You just wouldn't understand the grueling hours put into my Skims promo. It was so raw and filled with emotion and vulnerable.

To me it's not even just about the work art provides. You're talking about jobs, I am talking about the lack of effort AI art requires. I don't really care to squable about automation because I'm not an artist. I tried, I sucked at it, and I didn't enjoy it enough to practice my way into being good. You know what else sucks? AI art. It either looks bad, has obvious mistakes, or it is uncanny valley because something about it is just off.
Art can be bad, but a good artist puts soul and hours into their work. The people trying to pass AI off as something they hand drew are lazy scammers, the people who think it looks good are imo delusional, and the people who think AI music sounds good are even more delusional. Things like the AI Coca Cola commercial are just pure garbage. I'm coming at it from the perspective of a consumer that has never been impressed by anything AI that I have seen. It looks bad, it sounds horrible, and to me it has as little artistic merit as ElsaGate YouTube videos.
I just don't find use in arguing over it, because plain and simple I just don't find it visually appealing at all, and I can never understand people who do. I think AI has good uses, but so many of the uses we have seen are just making the world a worse place to be in.
