I thought this was America!? I can't enjoy a fine succulent AI meal?

Alaska Art Alumni Arrested for Absorbing Another Adherent AI Appeared Art in Argument*

Fixed it, it was so close!!

He was intaking it for training data! Surely an AI artist can appreciate the deep importance of that?

The caption is wrong. Nick Dwyer isn't an artist. He's a clank-fucker.

Also … doesn't he just look exactly like you'd expect a clank-fucker saying "NO REALLY, THIS IS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!" to look? Empty, soulless eyes. A way too serious expression for someone who typed "ANIME GIRL BIG BEWBS" and called the output art.

It was obviously a statement about how large image models gobble up other people's art and spit it back out.

Nah, it definitely goes all the way through and comes out the other end.

Actually they were arrested for potentially hurting a professional fulltime investor's feelings.

They're guilty of conspiracy against shareholder value. Seeing such heinous crimes makes me wish burning at the stake was still a valid form of punishment.

In a way, implying the bulimic nature of AI is a more powerful statement than consuming it for sustenance.

Seems these days, the news articles with the word "Protest" and an American place name in the headline, all gravitate towards the same thing.

People protest lots of different things across the political spectrum.

AI

Trump

Musk

Datacenters

Abortion

Transexuals

Fossil Fuels

Windmills

And I bet to some degree, it's different sides of the same coin we're protesting here.

I personally have nothing in common with dumbasses who protest against transexuals and windmills. I side squarely with the trans and the windmills.

Wait. I'm unaware of windmills. What are they protesting?

Also, where do windmills still exist?

The new giant windmills that generate electricity. Mostly they’re protested by people who don’t want to see them, or possibly hear them (I’m not sure that they are actually loud enough to be louder than whatever wind is blowing them unless you’re right next to them), or people upset about the number of birds they kill (although most of the people I’ve seen complaining about the bird deaths seem to be supporters of fossil fuels so their sincerity seems a bit dubious).

Oh well. I'll listen to them if they simultaneously show up at the protests against all the subsidies that go towards big oil, all the crude oil that leaks into the ocean, nuclear power plant nextdoors etc.

Hey. We have more than protesting we can do. We can go to the grocery store and cry. We can scroll through social media feeds filled with Nazi propaganda. We can go into medical debt because we twisted our ankle at work. We can gamble on stock. We can gamble on sports. We can gamble on whether or not a streamer wear shorts. Really, most of what we can do is gamble and hope we win enough to get the fuck out of here.

America. It's all going to shit and we're apparently taking you all with us.

Well, I support the police since it is wrong to eat garbage in public. 🙃

Should I post this in "Eat AI"?

Well, he certainly didn't fuck it, or is "eat" a euphemism here?

He put them in his mouth and chewed on them. So not entirely euphemistic.
