I think it's the beginning of what will be a common response to AI. The issue isn't the AI, the issue is ethics... there is nothing to keep someone honest. The artists that I see taking issue with AI art is that its being used to literally steal another artists style. Why do I need to pay this artist when I can get nearly the same results from an AI.

It's robots for your brain, so it's going to take work from people.

It's been many years, more than 5, maybe 10 but I'm not terribly active in this sub.

I joined because I've always been fascinated by this possible sci-fi future and I wanted to see a perspective on humanity's future that isn't based on politics and environmentalism, both offering a very bleak future.

I've been on long enough to feel like nothing is happening fast enough (to my liking) and the 2 previous viewpoints I mentioned have tainted what I think will happen. eg. Every time I hear of something that will prolong life or give a new state of consciousness I have the cynical thought that it will be for the rich and unattainable by the common man.
