The reason I am a writer and you are not is not because I can and you can't, it's because I do and you don't.

Morality is precisely what's at stake here.

Now just imagine how much more meaningful those moments would have been if it had been a story that you actually wrote rather than something cobbled together from the works of previous writers and artists by an algorithm.

It assumes nothing about OP. It’s about what they made, not who they are.

So just because things are going to get worse we should accept each new horrible thing with open arms?

Nope, let’s keep fighting against the things which cheapen our world and support those who enrich our lives.

Absolutely agree. This might be a fun personal project. But things like this only hasten the decline towards a dead internet where human-created things with heart and intent are impossible to locate among the dregs of paper-thin AI drivel which only approximates human invention.

Just because we can does not mean we should.

They can do so anytime they pick up an instrument. But plugging things into AI is not making music.

This is a baseless argument. A human being and a machine are fundamentally different. A human being synthesizes things from the world and it becomes a part of them. The art they produce is filtered through their unique brain and life experience and natural talents. All a machine does is spit out recycled versions of things that actual human beings have done.

Nothing was stopping them from making music before other than laziness.

I’m so sick of hearing this excuse. “I can’t draw so I use AI,” as if the people who can draw were born that way.

No, they spent countless hours practicing and that’s what makes it art. Because it’s the product of hours of decision making and learning. You can not skip ahead in line. Full stop.

You just have to ride the wave with social media sites. Same as dating apps. Use them before they rot.

Infowars is a supplements business. It’s grifts all the way down.

This article is kind of hilariously like almost every conversation you have at the disc golf course, but it’s always something different. The reach back position, the power pocket, the elbow angle, the follow through, pouring the coffee, turning the key, etc etc etc.

If _only_ it were as simple as one thing. But the truth is that distance can be achieved through a multitude of athletic motions which vary drastically player to player.

I really hope you’re wrong. I suspect that the future is technology which blends further into the background rather than being shoved closer to our faces.
