    My dude. I don’t think you’re fully aware of the scope here.

    To give context, decades ago, people were saying the same shit about Photoshop.

    Before that, it was digital printing in general. Decades before that, photography. Same for other media. Special effects in TV and Movies. Hell, motion pictures. Go even further back, you’ve got the Luddites. If you’re not familiar with those poor bastards, give the subject a read.

    There’s no real fight against this tide you see coming. This “AI infection.” Technology progresses regardless. Like every complexity in life, there are good and bad effects, and whether we like it is irrelevant in the grander scheme. The Luddites got absolutely fucked, and the industrial revolution kept churning.

    But let’s table that discussion of “if I can do something”, and get to “why”.

    a lot of people Do NOT like the AI bullshit

    That’s fair. I am often one of them. But why should I value these opinions more than those of others? We already have a system for people to express those opinions. It’s the voting system. And unless something violates our very, very tiny ruleset, I have no reason to intervene. If enough people want to change that rule set, then we’ll discuss it and make the changes.

    But until then, let’s let people post their shit. Some might like it.
