  While AI is just tool like anything else, the fact it is being used to replace talented artists just to save a quick buck is why it is understandably being called evil. Context matters.

    Except in this case it wasn't used to replace talented artists.

    AI is precisely for this kind of work, the uninspired, "someone's gotta do it" kind of boilerplate bullshit. No artist is enthusiastic about having to make brick pattern number 3591. But someone's gotta make it. At that point, it might be just one artist generating all required 8000 patterns via AI, knocking it out in one day, then getting back to working on things that do require their talent.

      People who are not artists love saying things like this.

    AI has not replaced any jobs to any significant degree

        LOL who? The layoffs from over hiring during covid, high interest rates and the boneheaded tariffs this past half year?

  Generative forms as we now know them have been around for 2 years.

      Holy shit, I haven’t felt whiplash like that from a comment in years.

      I’m not even mad, I feel alive.

      But to be serious for moment, in the future when you’re about to make a similar comment out of nowhere, please pause and reflect on why you chose to say such a thing to a stranger on internet in the first place?

      Our time to converse genuinely with others online may be finite and coming to an end sooner than any of us expected. Is that how you want to conduct yourself in these fleeting moments?
