Glad to see that you lack an understanding of scale, that explains a lot.

Should the single parent who had a dream to make art who is getting crushed by capitalism, works 3 jobs to make ends meet and literally doesnt have time to learn there passion without starving not also deserve to be able to express themselves?

They're not expressing themselves if all they're doing is the equivalent of a boss telling a worker to do something. This is also called "commissioning an artist"

Oh no poor people might be able to make money off of art instead of only massive corporations that effectively already killed the human spirit in art already. Oh no someone who may have gone to school for art so they can express themselves may no longer be able to get a job at an ad company where their love for art gets extinguished as they have to constantly make soulless logos for mega corps based on advise from advertising psychologist who define what will tingle peoples brain more to make them want to consume more.

This whole paragraph is such a display of bad faith that I can't even figure what's your position. My best guess: a lot of words to dodge the problem.

The problem your scared about already happens but is dressed up as human expression today by pr departments because people do it. If anything AI art would counter that because now more people will be producing things for the sole reason of expressing themselves instead of needing to take a soul crushing job eroding the expression of their craft for a corporation to make up for the years of debt they incurred by going to school to follow their passion only to find out the field they went into is a farce.

Yeah, nothing like getting a soul crushing job that doesn't involve art, so that my artistic spirit can remain unfulfilled forever while I pretend to boss around a prompt and think I did something. Refer back to my first point of this reply.

People believe anything already, people believed random hearsay in the past. The only counter for any type of manipulation like this whether being based in deep fakes or just someone spewing nonsense on a pod cast is critical thinking skills. AI doesnt change that one bit, if someone doesnt want to think critically about something they wont, they don’t need AI today to practice cognitive dissonance and blocking AI wont stop that behavior only focusing on education and critical thinking skills will.

It's a matter of scale. That you failed to grasp something so simple says a lot.

Not capitalism exclusive, but expected in any system that has strict hierarchy and needs lots of bodies in the lower levels - capitalism needs truckloads of poor people just like petty aristocrats needs serfs. The moment the population of those lower levels start to diminish, they call out for everyone to have more kids.

Shhh, quiet! Otherwise they might get kidnapped by trump's goons and put on an executive seat!

But there is more human crap out there made each day than there is great works

And now, thanks to AI, we can expect 100x more shit to wade through! Great success!

Not everyone can draw, or play music, or make movies. Not everyone has the time or money to put everything together thats needed to make something like a good song or a good movie.

If the author does not want to spend time learning and doing, then I don't want to spend time checking whatever they asked an AI to do.

So what exactly is the problem with people using AI generate something?

Lower barrier of entry for profit-seeking bullshitters. A significant usage of AI is done by people wanting to profit off it somehow. SEO optimized garbage sites, videos that get lots of views on yt/ttk/insta, playing spotify on repeat forever.

Oh, there's also the problem of all the deepfakes that people WILL believe, whatever the intent was: revenge porn, political manipulation, trolling.

They probably won't repent and will simply continue to use bullshit rhetoric for when they get out of jail. I recall watching a documentary about one of these cults, don't remember the name, but it got some pretty rich women in it and the cult leader was abusing all of them.

After being jailed and everything being exposed, a small handful of people who were into it still wanted to defend the leader

I suspect that piece of the bible is carefully ignored in the greediest churches. It's not like the faithful read the fucking thing anyway

The market, well known for its thoughtfulness and discipline, is sure to remain so.

Yeah, nothing says "this person will repay their loans" like looking at their face and nothing fucking else.

I love how you can just call it capetalismo in portuguese, capeta = devil

I'll never cease to be amazed by how easily we can create impromptu chemical weapons just by trying to clean our homes with bleach
