I think people talking about how "AI will make making art accessible" is the best argument for gatekeeping I've ever heard.

@poorpossum here's another one: what if you are literally Picasso but you've never made a movie. Is using ai bad, too?
Wow I just made art accessible to Picasso
@azzale Art was already accessible to Picasso. You just eliminated the possibility for the collab of the century.
@azzale You are confusing art for a product, when it is a process.
@poorpossum not at all. Art is a process. A process which often requires tools. Tools like a pen, a pencil, a brush, a camera, or an ai. And in all cases, a brain to think it through
@azzale I turned on the donut machine! A donut machine that I rent time from another company that stole all the ingredients and recipes from another donut shop! Look at me, creatively making donuts with this fabulous tool!
@poorpossum enjoy your donuts. If you're too proud to admit it's the machine making them, that's on you. Not on the machine
@azzale I think you think you just dunked on me, when all you've done is stated my thesis. Clearly the AI brain-rot has already set in hard with you.
