#anyways the actual key issues with AI are people vastly overestimating the accuracy and competence of LLMs

While I do agree on some level with the new wave of arguments that a "problem" with AI art is that you're skipping all the long and difficult steps of honing a skill and training yourself to improve, I do think it's important to point out that

1. This is basically just a more grounded articulation of the whole "it has no soul" thing that isn't really solid enough to be useful for anything beyond saying why you think some people are cringe (i.e. this isn't grounds to start engaging legislation or break out the Bad Person lables) and

2. Last I checked when people used this exact same argument as to why games like dark souls don't need to compromise their artistic integrity to add easy modes, a lot of you got Big Mad. Including the same people using this argument against AI art. I guess devoting effort to develop a skill is only necessary when it's your own hobby? Strange.
