When you learn of a situation that a lot of people care about and feel very strongly about, it would be wiser and more respectable to not immediately dismiss it. Since you admit to only finding out about the situation five minutes ago, you might not have a firm enough understanding of the nuance to reduce everyone involved to haters without valid concerns. If you dig into the subject a little more, the answer to your question will become apparent, even if you disagree it.
I don’t agree or disagree with it. It’s the constant outrage. I don’t understand how people can be constantly unhappy
You don’t know if anyone upset about this is a generally and constantly unhappy person, they are upset about this. Are there no topics in this world that you have a very strong opinion on, that you would express given the situation? Could you not be a generally happy person and express those opinions, at the same time?
Also, I mean, I know a lot of people don’t care about the whole “A.I. vs. artists” thing, but it should absolutely not be difficult to understand why many do. We are talking about a fast-growing technology and industry that will perhaps decimate jobs and entire professions, that will definitely reduce the value of certain things to zero, and while that will be good for some things, it is concerning for many that one of the first things being seriously threatened is art—something generally thought to be a deeply human ability, and a profession already notoriously difficult to earn a living at. For a lot of people this is existential. This guy’s little coloring book project is not the problem, but it‘s still a small facet of the larger issue, and being concerned about that issue is very valid, and anyone with perspective and a modicum of empathy should be able to understand it.
