if factories didn't get set on fire with the owner inside people would still be breaking their backs working 16h a day in conditions that shorten their lives by a year every month spent working, every day going deeper in dept to the company store. Oh and they asked for better conditions, they protested, they demanded, they went on strikes, but there was no way out.
violance isn't the answer - violance is what happens when you take away someon's hope. And this is not a new relevation:
Sun Tzu said 'When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard'
because a desperate, hopeless foe will fight to the death
when non-US folks share things that are supposed to he funny and/or relatable, we usually convert our currencies to dollars as most people know how much that's worth roughly
never mind a canvas, if the guy cared in the slightest about the "art" AI made he'd at least print it on poster paper
this experiment shows how even the "artists" just do not care about those images, and why would they? why would any of us care?
this shows exactly the core of the issue - every piece of art made by a human, no matter how good or bad (whatever that means), is a reflection of the artist. Sometimes they pour their entire soul into a piece, sometimes just a small part of them, but it's always a reflection of them. So the artist will care about what they've made because it's their own self, in a way. And others will care about it too, because we crave to get to know others, understand them, see the world how they see it - and art allows us to glimpse just that.
AI slop elicits none of those emotions, there is no artist to care about, no reflection of the self, no worldview to glimpse, no way of caring about it, nothing – even if it was you who wrote the prompt, you just can't bring yourself to give a shit
not really! the wikipedia page is a good source information about what we know about it, for the unknowns looking around online for like "how does anesthesia work exactly" leads you to experts just going "idk, but it does work so"
it could've been "like" it could've been for real! we actually have no idea how exactly anesthesia works, we just found a substance that knocks us out and probably makes it so we can't feel anything, and we mastered using it, but nobody really knows the exact mechanism of how it works :)
i just gave up on that. i cook guided by vibes alone
and i must say, i mastered this skill to such a degree i can make perfect soft boiled eggs every single time. my inner clock is broken aside from when i make food, then it's better than an actual time keeping device
i have adhd so i'm allowed to cheat here
my hobby shelf (fully stocked up), and a laptop.
for the 18+ version instead of a laptop there's a set of BDSM gear
