Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

literally fuck anyone who doesn’t see at this point that it’s an organized nationwide effort to make trans people unemployable.
every trans person they push out of public life is a win for them & a whole hell of a lot of cis people need to start stepping up and saying fuck off to freaks like this.

It's only 'effective' if the goal is a legislative strategy for banning pornography.

the enthusiasm for generative AI would not have been possible without prior decades of capitalist conditioning to view works of art as products, rather than acts of culture and shared human life
I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

If you're like me & only make a few hundred off itch sales per year you may wanna withdraw funds & disable your payoneer account as they're gonna be charging an annual fee of $30 to people who make less than $6k a year.
Or you could drop them because of their AI bullshit. That's a valid reason too.

I honestly can't think of an issue where my mind has been more thoroughly changed by listening to people on social media. While MAiD is something that in principle I'd support, it's not possible to have it as a truly consensual option under current systems- something I learned from disabled folks.
A woman in Saskatchewan needs surgery for a parathyroid issue and is being offered MAiD instead.
There’s no one in the province who can perform the procedure and the government won’t pay to send her elsewhere.
This is why disability advocates warn about assisted dying
