I’ve seen a lot of articles and posts about AI that use the term “like it or not” as in “like it or not, AI is here, and we might as well get used to it” and that is such bullshit.

Like it or not, ableism is here… like it or not, racism is here… like it or not, fascism is here.

No, fuck that, I will resist. I will speak out. I will fight back.

You do not have to roll over and accept the shit corporations and the existing power structure try to force upon you.

We can build a better world.

Ah, I see your problem. You think the point of creating art is external validation of your creation.

Haha, no.

The point of art is you created some art. Expressed something in a way unique to you. If you did that, your art is a success, even if no one likes it.

Even if you don't.

Don't worry, it won't be that long before you make something *you* appreciate, and maybe not even as long as that before you make something someone else appreciates.
