#AI is not #intelligent and #AIArt is no #art at all.

You're burning loads of #energy by toying with these tools, watch one of @thomasfricke 's talks

Or listen to @tante & just learn to make art instead of faking it

You're making it harder for #artists , even prominent ones like #sarahandersen

You are making people richer & more #powerful that should not be in #power in the first place

You are accepting that #mods have to watch most horrible stuff

But you don't have to:
Grab a pen & draw

i think a bunch about how edsger dijkstra didn't set written exams for his students, the final was an oral exam, he'd sit and ask them questions

written exams aren't used because they're better at evaluating students, but because they're way easier to scale up, marking and grading can be pushed onto other students

with things like chatgpt destroying most of academica it's nice to think that dijkstra would be "have you tried actually examining the students" heh
