Comment on 'An Insult To Life Itself': Hayao Miyazaki’s AI Criticism Resurfaces As OpenAI’s Ghibli-Style Image Trend Takes Over Social Media

I don’t see mathematicians pitching a fit that lesser skilled people can use calculators to produce their results. I don’t understand the artists’ complaining that AI allows the lesser skilled people to produce an image of their ideas.

As always, the problem isn’t the tech. The problem is capitalism forcing people into competing with the tech.

I don’t think you have a good handle on what mathematicians do.

Dumbest analogy I’ve seen in a minute.

But art is also one of the most fundamental things everyone learns to do. Literal children learn to do art, and doodling is something everyone knows how to do.

Although I do think that the issue is exacerbated by the enthusiast-types who will tune a model on someone’s work as a form of vengeance, and smugly brag about how they can have the computer crunch out something approximating their work.

  They’re not replicating children’s art. It’s complex art that takes more study to produce. Children learn math, too. Calculators still help.
