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.
