@alessandro@cosocial.ca Sure, lots of people will be very happy with art that you or I think is crap. Margaret Keane sells like hotcakes for some reason, and you mentioned the "Live, Laugh, Love" things. But that doesn't mean the average person "doesn't care" if their art is produced by "AI" or not. The large and growing backlash against it is ample evidence that most people want their art, even their shitty or trite art, to be the creations of actual human beings. 2/4

@alessandro@cosocial.ca And someone buying, or looking at, art used to be able to take it as a given that what they were seeing was in fact what it claimed to be. And being on guard, now, that takes away a little of our enjoyment of art. Even worse, someone who doesn't know when a particular piece was created could assume it was slop. What was previously, "Oh, what a pretty picture" (or whatever) turns into "Oh, I bet that's slop." It has literally been devalued. 3/4 @leeloo@c.im @astronomerritt@hachyderm.io
