It is now "purist" to protest against the usage of tools that by and large steal from the work of countless unpaid, uncredited, unconsenting artists, writers, and programmers. It is virtue signaling to say I don't support OpenAI or their shitty capital chasing pig-brethren. It's fucking "organic labelling" to want to support like-minded people instead of big tech.
Y'all are ridiculous. The more of this I see, the more radicalized I get. Cool tech, yes, I admit! But wow, you just want to sweep all those pesky little ethical issues aside because... it makes you more productive? Shit, it's like you're competing with Altman on the unlikeability ranking.
These same discussion happened with photoshop and “brush tools” why are those acceptable to make it less labor intensive, but this isn’t?
It’s more hypocrisy over purism, as you’ve so nicely pointed out.
You're missing the point. "This makes things easier" isn't the problem, it's more along the lines of "this is only possible by stealing the works of countless people, it will attempt to obviate their jobs, and make billionaires even richer." People aren't mad you want to work less, they're mad you'll make things worse, and won't even bother to grasp how.
Comparing GenAI to brush tools is extremely disingenuous, talk about hypocrisy.
