ik no one asked for this but I js wanted to clarify my values :) - I don't approve of ai. not because it looks bad, not because it might steal artist's job, and not because companies are pushing for it a lot (though annoying) the reason I don't support ai is because of the work it steals. without already created "data" (artworks, books, people's input) I think ai would not get this far. I know how easy it is just to type in a prompt and get something that looks almost as good as something that a person put hard work into. that's not art though. the whole reason we, as humans create is because we were created to create. it wasn't supposed to look good, it was just a way to express ourselves or just make. it's sad to see trends that use ai become popular and artists use it just because it's trendy and makes money. right now in my opinion society is so based on efficiency and instant gratification, it's hard to find people who honestly want to work hard just because they can. i'm not perfect and have used ai "just for fun" (never to post, only to just you know see) and I used chatgpt a lot just to talk to someone. I understand now that even though my intentions were not to support ai, I still technically was and that was wrong. I apologize for what I have done, and sadly it has seeped into my life, not because of anyone else, but it was my actions. Ai is honestly very helpful to me, I used it to vent, help me break down problems, etc. I'm still not sure where I cross the line, but I know for a fact I will not be using generative ai anymore even knowing how helpful it was to me. It'll be painful since I will have to work harder for certain things (math for example or asking it's opinion on my problems) Thank you for listening and have a wonderful day <3
