Yeah it's definitely testosterone :/ just pure monkey brain neuron activated, there's not really any thoughts besides "I am so unbelievably in love with them" until you're snapped back to reality...

Unless you're generating actual random noise with an AI image generator, it's almost like buying a fence's stolen goods, since it is mainly just copying and merging rather than creating. It's the same thing as piracy, if you do it and then support the crestor no one should mind, but the creator for AI art is everyone it stole from. If I pay for the generation it's also saying to them "please steal more artwork, it is profitable."

The bigger issue is someone who might have commissioned an artist instead uses an AI version of their art because it's close enough to the exact style they wanted, so now their artwork was stolen, and the AIs only source for actual good art is less likely to be in the art business. The photographer or artist whose art they would've used or gotten flak for not sourcing is still stolen in the case of AI generation, but now it's stolen from 200 people so there's no obvious thing to point to besides maybe a style or a palette. If you tell it to replicate an artist's style, it's very obvious that it is recreating parte of images it stole, it just becomes less obvious which parts are stolen as you change the prompt.

I think its just a "this was in there before so it must go back in after im done using it," since it's only when it's fully empty that changes.

I'm always surprised to see people defending that kind of language, I've generally got a positive response explaining why it's hurtful, but why try to divide us? I hate that women have to deal with these weirdos too, why am I being grouped with them when I'm only trying to help?

All it takes is hearing stories or knowing someone personally who just gets flooded with creeps and you realize this isn't an overreaction. One of my not super close friends changed their name on Facebook because of weirdos trying to do """"light"""" stalking constantly. It seems super weird and antisocial of women until you get the full story.

I think even if it's not one of these situations, being approached is uncomfortable unless you are interested in the person. People are way more isolated now and less socially aware, which means half the people who do approach will not understand when the other person isn't interested, and end up making it a bad interaction for both people rather than just a short uncomfortable one.

Being isolated also makes people act stupid, which makes them ask out their server cashier etc even if they know they shouldn't. They just need someone to be with, and they see a positive interaction and go for it. It's like someone who's starving stealing a lot of your food, it's still their "fault" but it's not really surprising they would do that.

I guess I'm just not reading the literal exact words they wrote, but interpreting what they likely meant was "no one (in the large pool of people I have tried dating) is looking for a meaningful relationship." It's like psychoanalzying someone after they got dumped for saying "women are evil" and saying "omg this guy is an incel!" He's venting about a negative experience, not debating that women are all trash humans. Making generalizations because you're upset doesn't make you a bad person or an incel or...

E: also sounds like you're assuming the worst of some random dude on the internet rather than just seeing him as someone who's upset or in a bad situation.

If you've never run into the situation of living somewhere that everyone seems to only care about themselves I'm glad for you, but that absolutely does happen. I'm a pretty sociable person and moving from 1 city/neighborhood to another, I want nothing to do with "many, many" women around here because they are exactly as he described, there are some cool women too definitely, but the place I used to live had a majority really cool interesting and unique people. If I wasn't lucky enough to see personally that there are a lot of women who aren't surface level, I probably would've said the same thing as he did. Which is why I said the response I would have is "man that sucks sorry you have to deal with that."

Just reminding people this handy button exists!

Yeah I think it's rather women have the same problem dating men, but are much less superficial with other girls

Brutal, yeah I usually skip over people who have those weird qualifiers just out of principle, like yeah maybe this is a negative to you but you're gonna write off a whole person for that? There are so many amazing people that they'll never meet just because of some random "dealbreaker."

"My experience as a man dating has been many many girls are superficial" is in fact bashing many many girls... the ones who are superficial? If a woman said "many many men are superficial" I would say "correct. Sorry you had to deal with people like that." Not "stop bashing men" when the men they're talking about are the same people I would complain about!!!
