Yawn. Goodbye dude.

You pretty much said some of the greatest and most influential artists in the last 50 years are not actually artists.

No, I didn’t say that at all- oooohhh… wait, hold on… . Before this gets out-of-hand:

You think that because I specifically said “guitar” that I meant to say that if it’s not written on a guitar, it’s not music. Yeah. No. It’s implied that by “guitar” I meant ANY instrument of choice that isn’t someone hitting the spacebar to start the digital track that their AI computer created for them.

Give it a rest man. You’re not an artist in my mind. But don’t worry! I’m sure you have a lot of other people fooled. Why should one person that called you out matter?

Go have fun somewhere.

It takes zero art school knowledge to create art using AI. So no, despite your best efforts to villainize me and twist the argument in your favor…

What I’m doing is taking a huge shit on people who pretend to be artists by using AI. Actual artists won’t need to use AI because they have actual skill.

Same with music. If you’re too fucking lazy to pick up a guitar and play- you’re not a musician.

Man. If coming up with apples to oranges comparisons was a skill, somehow I have a feeling you’d have AI do it for you.

Do you honestly think a farmer’s knowledge of crops, seasonal growth rates, harvesting times and techniques, using the right tools to promote growth, nitrogen/PH content of soil, and how to properly avoid blight is somehow the same thing as some kid knuckling a few adjectives into a computer and creating a pretty picture?

Fuck man. You are ALL the way out of gas here.

However, I’ll add that having punched up that ridiculous response, you’re now a world class comedian. Congrats!

Oh, and if they work on an assembly line, then no, they’re not a manufacturer- they’re what’s called a “laborer”. That’s how shit works. The company in your scenario would be the manufacturer. They would have done the R&D, designed and financed the machinery and produced the product.

Man, your school sucked.

Are you okay?

If I run this through AI, do I get to be an “artist” like you?

Congratulations! You’re now a journalist for having typed that paragraph. Man, you’re really racking up the careers here!

(Do you see the point here? Using a tool that does all the work for you, doesn’t make you comparable to those that spent their lives doing it without cheating. Just like typing something out using auto-correct doesn’t make you a journalist).

Congratulations! You’re now a poet for having typed that sentence!

Cool. You’re now a novelist because of That paragraph. Congratulations!

So, you’re now allowed to be called a novelist because of that reply. Congratulations! Enjoy your new career!

According to anyone in the Stable Diffusion communities, yes. And as a matter of fact, because I responded to you, I am now a novelist.

No, it doesn’t.

I think it does. Thanks.

I don’t follow. You’ve referred to yourself as “I” several times recently. I’m not trying to antagonize; but rather understand. Is a plural pronoun something you can set aside when necessary? Are all pronouns interchangeable at will?

I am genuinely curious as I know very little of how it all works aside from the basics.

If you need to use X as an example of free speech, you’re on the wrong side of the argument bud.

Care to elaborate?

My thoughts exactly.
