      99% of art is selling it. You can’t sell AI cos it doesn’t have a story.

      As long as your work has a story, it’ll sell itself.

        I’m sorry, but plenty of companies resort to gen-AI to make their adverts now, and that’s a net loss for creatives/designers/etc. Yes the generated visuals are shit, but they blend into the landscape, and not everybody happens to care

        This is so far from the truth. You don’t need a story, just a marketing budget. It’s like you guys just forget Hollywood exists.

        Idealistic to the point of absurdity.

        Your heart’s in the right place, but your mind isn’t.

    Many of these same issues of creativity vs crafting vs the meaning of how things are made were covered in Diamond Age. It’s a wild, classic Stephenson novel, but it’s themes are being explored in the real world today.

    I agree, I think that at this point the economics and ecological problems of running AI overshadow the actual use of it

    It’s a powerful tool with a ton of potential for slop, but isn’t inherently creative. But in the hands of people that ARE creative and intentional with it, there are good use cases
