Reproduction Isn’t Creativity, and AI Isn’t Art

The most effusive boosters of AI culture fundamentally mistake reproduction for creation and incorrectly see realism and artistic expression as synonymous. In this conception, creativity is ultimately a mechanistic endeavor, art of every kind — paintings, films, music, poetry — being nothing more than the aggregation of granular data points; quite literally, the sum of its component parts.

Accelerated by corporate monopolism, mass entertainment has increasingly become a wasteland of derivative and algorithmically generated “content,” very little of it meaningfully new. Aided by technology, corporate conglomerates have already honed a zombified mode of cultural production in which existing intellectual property (IP) is endlessly recycled and churned out in the form of sequels, prequels, reboots, and schlock pastiche. Insofar as AI represents a revolution, it will therefore mainly be one that refines this process further, which is not really much of a revolution at all.

Art, music, and virtually the whole of human life and thought beyond the basic business of sleeping and eating, exudes an essence or Geist that is not reducible to mechanistic processes.

 

Absolutely wild.

 

To be fair, he's going to do the exact same bullshit, this is just an easy way to set him apart from another candidate

 

He’s doing what he always does which is just tell lie after lie. He’s not running close to the center he’s running as a perpetual liar why do they try to frame it as if he’s got a side. His political side/identity is Donald Trump and that’s it.

 

all it'll do is drive more republicans to DeSantis

 

Ew, a weirdo colleague was just laughing about the “illegal aliens” that were sent to Martha’s Vineyard a few months ago.

Yesterday he was complaining about a “16 year old black boy” that did something he thought was rude (I didn’t hear the rest of the story).

I cannot wait for this guy to get fired.

 

Prepare for 3 days of Biden falling memes online lol

lmfao

 

I'm cool with this as long as they just keep attacking their operators

 

Fucking Skynet

 

WHAT the hell? Fuck the senate and fuck whoever wrote that headline

 

Manchin, Sinema, and Tester can all get absolutely fucked to highest level of fucked. Pieces of absolute filth all three of them.

 

That bill is even worse than that fucking headline. Ghouls all of them.

 

i mean its good thing biden will veto it

but like at the same time... canceled means canceled. being like "oh this thing that got canceled years ago you actually owe" feels super illegal and the fact that it feels possible seems super scary
