really hate that the whole ai discussion has brought "art isn't a talent, it's a skill and if you can't do it you're lazy" back into vogue
#like yes it is a skill#but also if you wouldn't call someone lazy for not being able to do calculus#maybe reconsider the rhetoric that hard! work! is all that stands between people and art#(also 'just do bad art' is not the encouraging statement that people who have been doing good art for years seem to think)#('just create and dont worry about the end goal' is...better but still naive imo)#this is largely born of my increasing frustration at trying to learn to draw#with a visual system that can't reliably parse a pie chart without actively converting each section into a number#while seeing pithy tweets and tumblr posts about how lazy all those tech bros must be if they can't just draw the thing themselves#to be clear: my issue is not with criticisms of ai#it's with the false dichotomy of talent and skill#and with the idea that art is this magical thing that transcends any kind of cognitive limitations#and an inability to do it is just laziness or whatever
