Comics Community (OC) AI 'art' and the future

Could be controversial but I'm just gonna say it... I don't like AI... and for me it was never about it not looking good. There are obviously more factors to this whole thing, like about people losing jobs, about how the whole thing is just stealing, and everything like that but I'm just focusing on one fundamental aspect that I think about a lot... I just wanted to draw what I feel...! πŸ₯²πŸ₯² Sorry about the cringe but I actually live for cringe πŸ’–

I don't think they're gonna drop the game before I get the last achievement I need. That'd be quite rude of them.

But that's the thing, even if you do, did you REALLY get it?

That's kinda assuming your conclusion, isn't it?

Like, the comic is interesting because it's asking "suppose AI art really was as good as the human version, you can enjoy an endless supply of any media forever, is there still some sense in which something is missing?" If the AI art is just straight up worse then it's not an interesting question.

Like, if you think AI art looks shitty then that's something that can be fixed with R&D. If you think human art is better because you admire the human story that led to its creation, then that's something that can't.

If we can't get team cherry to make the masterpiece known as silksong, then we will have to make do with some AI knockoff
