    STEM types or AI defenders will point to you talking about the “human touch” and dismiss you because of it.

    Really the whole “luddite” take against those who aren’t in favor of AI overlook how a machine doing art or writing isn’t exactly helping anyone or making things easier. For starters the AI tends to be very derivative and functionally steals other people’s works in a way an industrial machine didn’t when the loom was replaced.

    Also since when are artists bougie? Almost every artist I know is dirt poor or barely middle class, working a menial job on the side as they continue to pursue art.

    AI has its functions and benefits but these LLM machines labeled as “AI” aren’t it. And that’s probably what the artist is focusing on more.
