Setting aside the usual arguments on the anti- and pro-AI art debate and the nature of creativity itself, perhaps the negative reaction that the Redditor encountered is part of a sea change in opinion among many people that think corporate AI platforms are exploitive and extractive in nature because their datasets rely on copyrighted material without the original artists’ permission. And that’s without getting into AI’s negative drag on the environment.
Sorry, I’ve got to ask though, can you give me an example of “bougie shit”?
(I’m not the one you replied to)
That banksy getting shredded at the art auction. It was beautiful. A gazillion bougie fucks smelling their own farts about the artistic value of getting shown a middle finger, thereby devaluing the finger. A truly bougie understanding of art and banksy called it, made the bougie shit his medium.
