      AI will most likely decimate commercial art and put millions out of work

      Artists already struggle to make ends meet with their art alone (because capitalism as always), yet they continue to make art because it’s in their blood.

      AI will make life harder for us to be sure, but artists can’t help ourselves but be creative.

      The idea of killing oneself over a lack of art rather than simply producing art is weak.

      Yeah, I honestly think orange is slop material as well. Orange is as much a consoomer treatler as the AI bros, the only difference being the AI bros fully embrace guzzling slop while orange has pretensions over being a morally superior consoomer.

      “I’ll kill myself if I can only find AI art.” How about just grabbing a pencil and begin sketching a bunch of shapes or writing a bunch of words on paper or tapping the pencil in a semi-rhythmic fashion? There, now you have found non-AI art, and with enough practice and discipline, this non-AI art can be good enough that you can share it with other people, some who might be inspired enough to create their own non-AI art.
