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...! 🥲🥲 Sorry about the cringe but I actually live for cringe 💖

One fundamental issue with the algorithm showing and reinforcing things you already know and like is that it's limiting. How small would your world and tastes be if you never tried something new, something outside your comfort zone, something that you didn't already know you'd like?

We're all much more diverse and interesting people because we've taken "risks" and experienced new things. Not all of them work for us, but that at least shows you're trying and open to growth.

Imagine if your parents said "Oh, you like Mac and Cheese? Okay!" and then only ever fed you Mac and Cheese your whole life.

There is a guy on r/cheese listing every cheese once a day and is in the 1300's I think. So. If you made me Mac and cheese with different cheeses every day, I might be happy. There are 2 other meals in the day.

Damn. Yeah I figured I was going to be off but not that far off.
