in earnest, i’m pro–ai art for the same reason i’m pro–sample/remix/mashup—namely, art maximalism. it’s all good, throw it all in the soup. the gripes aren’t unique to ai, nor to art, and they aren’t going to be addressed by relitigating “is it art? is it bad?” over and over.

i think it's cool that people will steal art, badly paint over it, and put it in their portfolio but it's cool when they do it because the original artist used midjourney. class. with rhetorical enemies like this who needs friends to help prove your points?

I’ve said in other places… it’s a massive amplification of the ‘choosing not to show how you got there’ that some creative people do. Which… okay (I guess?) at that the scale that the people and companies training these models are doing it, it just seems really… not cool.
