my issue with the argument that “disliking ai art is inherently reactionary” is that it acts like pro-ai art people are somehow less reactionary on their views on art, when like the majority of defense’s of ai art as like a higher form art are indistinguishable from the arguments people use to defend the art of like. hitler
i do think we need to use the term “technospiritualism” more when discussing ai, because while i’ve some loads of discourse around the term “soul” in regards to anti-ai arguments, i haven’t seen enough people talk about how alot of pro-ai people talk about ai like. it’s god????? like it’s some connection to a high spiritual objective truth devoid of human biases, when like it’s still very much affected by human biases just ones that favor like. the elon musks of the world.
i can’t help but notice that every slightly popular ml communist blog on here has the same aesthetics and general attitude as your average 2012 “sorry to trigger you” anti-sjw tumblr blog upto generally being more focused on “triggering the libs/tenderqueers/whatever” than like. any actual activism and i dunno it doesn’t feel far off from what ever shoeonhead was doing

this feels like a bit. i know it’s not but this is so absurd that it feels like it’s right out of arrested development
i feel like game piracy is sometimes viewed as this massive disruption to the game industry and not just “a small group of people who weren’t going to buy a game anyways now have it on their computer.” when companies report “losses” due to piracy that’s fake. that’s a fake number because no money was actually ever exchanged and companies cannot possibly know how many people actually pirated their game. piracy does not work like this
