it's not "whataboutism". An image maker, has to take it into consideration.
marginally few artists use natural materials. If pollution is the corcern, then there will be no movies, no touring groups, no streaming, no paintings, no prints, no this… no that.
paint is poison. I don't see people making anti-print posts. Not to diss on your antiAI zealotry ( i am your asshole, you see; i love antiAI.) I just would like to see more antiPrint posts, if the environment is your concern.
When it comes to intellectual property… are you mouthing the corporations that profit from it? Is intellectual property the solution to keep creative people alive in an exploitive economy?
The Reign of Terror (French: La Terreur, lit. 'The Terror') was a period of the French Revolution when, following the creation of the First Republic, a series of massacres and numerous public executions took place in response to the Federalist revolts, revolutionary fervour, anticlerical sentiment, and accusations of treason by the Committee of Public Safety. While terror was never formally instituted as a legal policy by the Convention, it was more often employed as a concept.
:) thanks for "triggering me".
i ask for coherence. If you take it as whataboutism 🤷
Harmfulness of paint doesn't discredit environmental questions around certain uses of AI.
