It doesn’t even make sense. Conservatives love, love, love AI.
Hey, does anyone remember that 500 billion dollar infrastructure package Trump wants to give AI companies? You should, it was two weeks ago.

It’s more complicated then that, convervatives generally want to control anything that is new and gives them power, owning the most advanced AI developments is a pro to them, regardless of if they like it or not.
It’s also a bit of a handout of course to Trumps buddies who got him elected in some fashion.

At its core, conservatism is about “conserving the way things are”, or, in another way, being “against change”. Anti ai people are against the changes they’re seeing. I don’t know how else to describe this.
Art is art, if someone has a fun idea and uses ai as the tool to express their idea, then it’s art. It may require less effort at the time of creation than other art forms, but this was at the expense of many people spending many hours developing the tools to make that happen.
Just like every era of change, there are people out there pissed off because it’s different. People were upset that the printing press was created, because they felt it cheapened knowledge.
