In a post-scarcity solarpunk future, I could imagine some reasonable uses, but that’s not the world we’re living in yet.

AI art has already poisoned the creative environment. I commissioned an artist for my latest solarpunk novel, and they used AI without telling me. I had to scrap that illustration. Then the next person I tried to hire claimed they could do the work without AI but in fact they could not.

All that is to say, fuck generative AI and fuck capitalism!

    I really hope more people start believing this. Our current copyright system has been abused and bought by the rich and screws over both consumers and small artists, but “copyright of any form is terrible” is harmful to artists too.

      I don’t care if it’s harmful to artists. “Artist” is not a real job, it’s something you nepo-babies can do in your free time outside of cooking McRibs or mining Lithium like the rest of working class folks.

      I’ve never paid for digital content and I ain’t about to start.
