They were more concerned with padding their wallets than they were bothered by being complicit in racism. Some people only have morals and principles until you are offer them a paycheck.

Sessler, just own up to the obvious racism and work better. it’s not that hard dude. 

As someone who was an adult in 2006 I can assure you that saying stuff like this was gross back then too.

And side note: who the FUCK is digging up 2006 game reviews to get angry about them!?

Oh man. That video was tough to watch. All the obvious problems aside, Sagi doesn’t even rhyme with sake, damn it!

People aren't identifying the issues with systemic poverty because that's not what this article is about. I know for s fact that many of these commenters have spoke out against systemic injustices in other threads. You seem to be creating a strawman of people that only care about holding technology back.

Whoever insisted commercial art isn't art is an asshole that doesn't respect labor or craft.

Well, ok. So leave.

Do us all a favour, follow up on that urge and just leave. Just do it, waddle off into your AI future and leave the actual humans alone. 

“When did everyone suddenly go from insisting commercial art isn’t art”

That... is a fundamentally stupid argument, especially in this context. 

It’s literally the exact same people pushing this. And of course they’re recycling the same tired arguments. If they were creative enough to come up with new arguments, why would they need AI?

That’s fine but we don’t have UBI and if fiscal conservatives have their way the next pandemic will kill every worker in existence, assuming they haven’t been ground up by the robot that replaced them. It’s all well and good to push for a utopian existence when capitalist psychos aren’t trying to bankrupt everyone who…

Oh my God. If you’re going to parrot leftist rhetoric, at least try and understand it.

Indeed, if anything it’s the same people. I am aware enough of a person or company’s true intentions - as actions are the biggest purveyors of truth, hence why they’re forcing narratives through a corporate-speak filter, while hiding their actions. They want to steal from artists through this tech.

It’s the same exact narrative that crypto bros were using to hype NFTs.  Anyone who was against NFTS were old or part of the elite and trying to keep “everyone” from making money.  The stuff for AI sounds similarly the same.

At least you acknowledge that it will make artists obsolete.  Why you think it’s a good thing is beyond me.

Oh, did I say that? I meant “steal from passionate creators who built their own skills and call it your own work”, hence the “War on Artists - because they’re ‘privileged’”.

Told you that these corporate/tech bro shills are trying to turn creative human labor obsolete through AI. There’s a reason they’re trying to criminalize artists in general - they’re forcing an ‘easy’ and ‘ethical’ narrative that benefits only them. For instance, they call artist “privileged” because they built their…
