we could have a social system to reduce or even eliminate the human suffering it causes, but i guess the powerful prefer to repeat the 19th century process of steam engines basically eliminating the previous middle class of artisans into poverty. It is also getting hard to preview what is not going to be automated in the middle or beginning of a career...

PS: Not to mention, Gizmodo also cut ORIGINAL spanish language journalism, when at least this part still would add value alongside the translated articles. Maybe they really don't care about the spanish speakers.

I say this to all the artists who attack the very existence of AI. The cat's out of the bag already, we're either going to move with the times or they will keep moving without us, as they always have.

Why should AI artists be content with having their work stolen from them? It would be one thing if they simply got out-competed; but AI necessarily involves stealing their labour to get there!

Some “AI artists” even specify the name of a real life artist in their prompts.
