hate hate HATE ai!!!! many others have said it in much more intelligent ways but i truly think it’s just horrible and soulless. even if you ignore the fact that it’s blatant stealing from actual artists and terrible for the environment, ai art is just plain bad.

the act of creation is a deeply personal and distinctly human thing and it can never never be replicated by a machine, no matter how impressive the ai-generated-thing appears! my little brother’s crayon-scribbled pokémon drawings will always be more intimate and beautiful than even the most photorealistic piece of ai.

I’ve officially started my French learning journey & it’s been going well so far! I’m lucky to live with a native speaker so I can practice with him (and be judged for my bad pronunciation lol. Oh well, c'est la vie)
