That was exactly my first thought too

Depends on the brand. If it was secretly manufactured by any particular nation’s secret military service, then Maybe.
While your points about the patronage system and its weaknesses are valid, you’re writing off several centuries worth of legitimate human endeavor because the systems that enabled it were dodgy. Guess what though? That’s literally all of history, dodgy AF, featuring an intrepid cast of characters more awful the deeper you look. That doesn’t make the art or music worth writing off though.
But honestly:
What is interesting though is the fact that AI art, and the LAION-5B dataset used to train the models is a true and earnest reflection of sorts of what images today really are
“Earnest” is definitely not the word you’re looking for. Derivative, maybe, because you said it yourself, they’re reflections; and as such, they’re going to reflect what images of today are; like you said. That makes them derivative, and I feel a vast artificiality that makes my heart sink when I look at the vast majority of them.
Choosing machine-created art over historical art is choosing a passing fad over centuries of culture. It’s your right; but to write off history with a wave of the hand means you’re missing out on truly expanding your horizons.
Expanding ones horizons absolutely does and should include art history, which is a part of human history.
Love the name and shame. Everyone needs to know about this guy
I’ve heard of Ohio, so I can confirm that others have witnessed this
Anyone who buys into Will.I.Am’s hype is automatically the wrong person to run anything more than a lemonade stand
Also, gave a platform to “John of God”. She’s sketchy AF
Nope, I had lots this year. It’s been lovely
Microplastics
Whoops, guess I’m now the enemy of a hundred million Americans
My bad
Aww, thanks! Consider me slightly more educated than when I awoke this morning :)
I still don’t know what ich_iel is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask
Awwws, thanks!
…I’ve only been playing the flute for 10 months though, so it’s not very impressive. I’ll send a link in a other 6 months after I learn how to vibrato so that my tone improves dramatically
Hey now, me playing my flute with myself in an edited duet isn’t “forgettable slop”! I’ll have you know, my 15 views and 1 Like that I liked myself are the pinnacle of my music career.
If you have kids it’s probably worth knowing about. If not, it might be better to avoid increasing your outrage
The idea of “robot dreams” is no longer the exclusive domain of fiction.
No, LLMs are not AGI. They don’t dream, and hallucinations don’t count.
Thanks! I was intending for it to be more of a shitpost, but I guess I’m not very good at those, it turns out
Lol whoops, I meant to give a wrong answer, my bad
But then when the bogs get flooded for harvest, the wolf spiders have nowhere to go that’s not water, so the people who are harvesting cranberries are like tall islands of refuge, so they swarm to the humans for safety, so the humans are covered in friendly happy relieved wolf spiders <3
