AI art advocates are like "well this new deadly poison is here to stay, who am I to stop people from filling the water supply with poison?"
"all you need is a cool idea, an internet connection, and about a cup with the blood of an artist"
anyway it's not a great analogy so don't read into it too much <3

actually just gonna, limit replies to this one, before my own cup of artist blood starts to boil
I have at least five (5) anxieties about this whole development, as you might be able to tell

"but what if an AI can get the same result" well fuck your hollow, soulless, ghostly husk of a result
