I think I'm cursed to be haunted the rest of my life by artists, especially photographers, mostly photographers honestly, embrace of Generative AI. I'm blessed to have at least done my photography studies years prior. What a curse on us all. And I will always have some hate in my heart for those who smiled and nodded along saying they were contributing to art with it (before these things go bankrupt and use up all the water and become surveillance and mass detention centers).  'What fun! Possibilities! Freedom! The great equalizer!' Asserting they are making important creative work with it, whining you should respect it on par with...No. 

One of the worst things is that likely I am at some point going to be forced to hold this knife and contribute to cutting through the fabric of humanity if I want to eat. Why are humans their own worse enemy? How do people hate other humans so much to have invented such evil? Why do so little see it with such education and supposed enlightenment or sensitivity? These elite freaks and the people they have coerced and brainwashed are going to destroy all our fucking beautiful land and resources, peoples' psyches, societal stability, all for the opportunity for people to view and create the stupidest, mediocre and evil shit you can imagine. And you're fucking applauding it proudly.

I feel like one of a few out here unfortunately who rail against this, have actual fear and rage and yes even some grief over it in the photo world. The cultural gatekeepers and such, and teachers and such, they don't care. They don't at all. They can't see it for what it actually is ironically for being translators, teachers, philosophers of a visual medium. You can't make this stuff up, willing accepting the sci-fi dystopia because they want a gadget to decipher.
