This is truly the worst timeline.
It's self-inflicted.
Did you make computer generated art easily accessible? If not, how did you self-inflict it on yourself? đŸ¤”
I don't self-inflict it on myself, because when I see a piece of art that looks really neat I go "ooh, that looks really neat" rather than "wait, I need to dig around to find out whether I'm supposed to like this or not."
People have to actively choose to make themselves miserable in the way this comic depicts. That's what I mean when I say it's self-inflicted.
Usually the AI art looks neat just on first impression. Makes sense that someone that appreciate any kind of art take his time to check the details and what it makes it good (or not). Also there are good reasons both to learn to recognize AI production and to crictize it.
If the art doesn't look good by whatever standards you have, then it doesn't look good. Whether it's not-good AI-generated or not-good human-generated doesn't matter.
Just look at the picture, and if you like it then like it. This moral panic about Abominable Intelligence's supposedly soulless touch is pointless.
...especially because over time you'll see an increasing number of artists incorporate AI tools into their workflows.
But like everything else, new tech always scares a significant subset of people, especially tech that can automate things that previously required more human effort or might cost some folks jobs/income - especially if they thought their work was immune to that sort of thing.
