          That’s circular reasoning. Why is it bad to use AI to make this image? Would spending time in photoshop make it less good?

            Spending time in photoshop instead of asking the misinformation machine to make this would make it good, yes.

              Why? You just say it would be good, without explaining why. How is this image contributing to misinformation?

                It’s not the image itself, it’s the tool. Using it normalises the use of AI generation and thus indirectly promotes misinformation.

                  So there isn’t anything wrong with using AI to generate this image, except the possibility that others can use it for misinformation? How is that different from photoshop? Surely the misinformation is the problem, and not the tool at a universal level?

              I hate to break it to you but even Photoshop is an AI slop generation tool now. Hell, most flagship phones don’t take pictures anymore. What you get is an AI generated composite of a number of frames it took. Everything is fucked. Reality is done for.

            It bad because it’s AI. There’s no circular reasoning there. It’s just bad on it’s own because it’s been trained on stolen work.

              IP itself should be abolished, and again, this is a neo-Luddite position attacking the tool rather than the capitalist system that abuses it. It’s entirely circular reasoning to say that AI is bad because it’s AI.

    I can only assume that their third cell mate was named Vlad, but that he already got the chair when this picture was generated taken.
