Are we allowed to like AI art?

I look forward to ai-generated posts complaining about the proliferation of ai-generated content. Actually I'm sure they already exist aplenty.

this shit's dope for tech support though, Gemini is spoon feeding me through installing Ubuntu in WSL, has been faster to just copy paste errors into a chatbot than actually googling and finding some forum posts somewhere.

I am definitely amazed at how r*tarded we've become (so much so I have to put a star in that word).

we're allowed to say retarded again, Shane Gillis did a down syndrome joke on SNL last year.

even has 3k upvotes on echoChamber.com
https://www.reddit.com/r/funnyvideos...down_syndrome/

edit: wrong clip

Gillis’s opening monologue used terminology that could have gotten him in trouble based on the new anti-speech activists in the media — he says “gay” and “retarded,” for example. But the “gay” joke is about how little boys grow up as their moms’ “gay best friend,” and his extended riff on members of his family who have Down syndrome concludes with a punchline about a bully calling his niece “retarded.”

Yeah I don't think AI will ever make anyhting good on its own for at least XX years.

But, an artist should use it to make a symphony in their bedroom that they put together by hand that sounds unlike anything anyone has ever heard before.

I swear to god the worst thing about living on a spec of dust in the gigantic cosmos is knowing that out there are entire histories and planets full of video games and music and entertainment but we cant watch, listen, and play them.

Shane can say it, but WE cant.

I got shushed for saying that to a girl while we were at a comic book shop (that she wanted to go to) and I basically asked if we could go to the gun store so i could blow my head off, then I realized that there's a waiting period now.

Shushed by a woman at a comic book store.

I felt like it was 1960 all over again and we started letting them into bars.

and after they failed to cancel Chapelle, only about 50% as much effort went into trying to cancel shane, again.

was just a bunch of articles telling people to feel bad about laughing at jokes that came of it.
