Elon Musk delusionally believes Trump support is not affecting Tesla, claims sales are at 'all-time highs' - Lemmy.World

I, for one, definitely won’t be buying another Tesla as long as Naziboy Musk has anything to do with the company.

Ai art finally getting some proper use here

Off topic, but…

“AI art” isn’t a thing anymore than “motorsport” is: it’s not sport when you’re not the motor.

Okay fuck ai “art” but why you gotta do motorsport dirty, that shit requires skill, physical fitness, shitloads of practice, and raw talent

Oh, no question. It takes skills to drive a car well - particularly a race car. It probably requires you to be fit too. But you’re not doing the work: the car does.

I choose to draw the line of “sport” at physical performance, because if you start including fine motor skills and intelligence, then you have to include poker-playing, model-making and mathematics and then it becomes ridiculous. And I say that as a semi-professional pool player: whatever I’m doing when I’m shooting pool, it sure ain’t sport, despite my having to train and keep fit.

Similarly, I choose to draw the line of “art” as you doing the art. Asking an AI to come up with a picture, however skillful the prompt, clearly isn’t you making the art.

That’s my take. Feel free to disagree 🙂

I think saying “it takes skill” and “probably requires you to be fit” are contradictory to your point. I would also argue that billiards is technically a sport. Golf is technically a sport.
