with the rise of ai and people using it to generate texts and art is there any point of making art anymore? my one goal in life is to write a book but seeing ai infiltrate creative spaces is really disheartening and idk i dunno if i'll ever be able to compete with a computer haha,, im obviously still going to try bc it is something i enjoy but i was wondering if other people on here were concerned with it or whether i am worrying to much.

thoughts on ai and writing?

seeing ai slop be so abundant esp without being tagged is so annoying like i cant even trust my own senses anymore. anyways i think ai could help with inspiration or something something but telling it to write stuff for you and passing it off as your own is a bigger theft than what even a romanian could come up with (im romanian i can make this joke)
i know its actually crazy,, the ai cat videos become more lifelike every day arg. and i wish ppl would actually try- also i was not aware that was a Romanian stereotype T_T

I feel it's mostly used by lazy fucks who want the praise and validation of making art, but don't want to put in the large amount of time, effort or trial and error to do any of it.
Because who the hell actually likes to read or write books? Every person who's doing it is obviously in it for the money and the fame!
Or it's used by the average person who thinks that their not smart enough to solve a common problem (Like writing an email, or leaving a sentimental comment on a post) so they just ask ChatGPT to make something for them.
Because why would anyone have a sloppy attempt at something when you can get soulless slop trying to replicate a sincere thought?
That or it's big corporations who want to save a few hundred bucks from just using an AI site.
Because who would actually enjoy looking at a cool piece of art for the preview of a page or a movie poster and not just awful generated art?
Yeah, fuck AI and fuck everyone who uses it.
exactly exactly and it sucks how everything comes down to money at the end of the day, like there isn't more to life,, and with anything arty, skill comes with practice regardless of your first attempts being shitty T_T

The thing about AI is that mean, ignorant people will always call you stupid for believing AI can replace the true artists, those who create amazing stuff even as beginners. We're not stupid for believing we can be replaced
️
I've heard of Art schools teaching AI stuff, basically paying to be taught nothing.
Of artists being replaced by machines, because it's cheaper
People don't want AI because it makes masterpieces, no, they want it because it's cheaper, they're greedy rich people, what did you expect?
I believe AI will die soon enough if we have hope. Let's all keep creating
Write your book, write a lot. People will like it, even if it's a small audience
thank you,, it's really sad how everything comes down too money at the end of the day like our art isn't what makes us the most humane :,( but i'll keep on trying regardless of what happens !

nothing compares to writing that comes from the human soul. ai can try to replicate "meaningful" writing, but no one would enjoy it. because it's not real. there's no substance in writing that comes from a soulless source.
true true !! half of it is the effort of trying to portray a human experience in a way that is most authentic to you,, i deffo feel like ai strips that away :,)

AI is scary and has been since the dawn of it's creation. I do want to say that AI hasn't gotten so advanced to the point where you can't tell between what's real and what's AI. I feel that as AI continues to progress, humans still will be able to tell the difference between what's real and what's AI. So if it means anything, I implore you to right that book because I know it will reach the right people and those people will enjoy it.
ahh thank you so much, and i will do my best to continue to write it despite my worries :D ! hopefully it will reach the people i need it to once it is finished ^^

The human mind will adapt in real time over the next few years to be able to recognize what is and isn't machine-written. We've already seen something similar happen with the ability to recognize images that are AI generated - the only people who still get fooled nowadays are the elderly. I wouldn't worry about it.
ahh i hope so but thats something good at least! :D

We need humans more than ever to fight ai and create. You can't control others but you can control yourself and your voice. The point isn't to compete, its to make your vision heard.
I am always concerned about future creatives due to the emerging culture but that's means more reason to create.
ahh that is definitely a much better way of looking at things, thank you! i think i'll try my best to keep that in mind when i write and stuff,, as long as im portraying my vision/message at least i have something :D
