Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Art is already accessible. Plenty of artists that sells their art dirt cheap, or you can buy pen and papers at the dollar store.
What people want when they say "AI is making art accessible" is they want high quality professional art for dirt cheap.
...and what their opposition means when they oppose it is "this line of work was supposed to be totally immune to automation, and I'm mad that it turns out not to be."
There is already a lot of automation out there, and more is better, when used correctly. And that's not talking about the outright theft of the material from these artists it is trying to replace so badly.
...and this opposition means that our disagreements can only be perceived through the lens of personal faults.
I think they also want recognition/credit for spending 5 minutes (or less) typing some words at an image generator as if that were comparable to people who develop technical skills and then create effortful meaningful work just because the outputs are (superficially) similar.
