"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

MODERATORS
They definitely seem to have real art on their site like the article says. I wonder if they had a mixture of things and rather than remove their AI generated stuff they fought with the management. Or they were just flat out asked to leave instead of given opportunity to fix it. I know a lot of traditional artists using AI now for posing and composition layout but they still do the panting etc. But it does look stifled sometimes. Like you can tell it’s been influenced by AI. It makes me sad. Especially since one of the artists used to be super fluid and expressive and now everything feels like they’re painting vectors :( which their merch distributor loves and encourages because it’s easier to print but I think it’s literally killed their business. I don’t think it’s “competitive” I think it’s convenient for a select few and killed their creativity. Fuck AI art.
