I agree 100% with this. Often arguments "against" AI summarize to "it is my suffering what gave my art value, so yours has none."

Bro, that's what capitalism told you. Your issue is not the "value" of AI it is the system that assigns and controls said value.

I see it more as: "AI is being used to increase suffering and kneecap labor, especially forms of labor which are considered pleasant. In the process, nearly every cent surrounding LLMs replacing workers is getting redirected to the already wealthy."

So you mean AI is being used by Capitalism, the same way it uses everything else?
