Seeing people go gaga over all this AI trash kind of makes me convinced that most people just… do not see? Not that something is physically wrong with their vision but it’s like most of it doesn’t even register, even more so than what I thought was the normal baseline of inattention to details.

Are people just constantly distracted and not really engaging with media? Only watching or looking at things on small screens? The result of decades of cuts and devaluation of art education? Literally just being happy with whatever garbage is in front of them? It’s a mystery to me.

The ooohs is mostly about how fucking far it has come so quickly. You must see how this technology is a pretty fucking big deal

They don’t see and don’t really want to see. Typical technophobe responses rooted in fear and insecurities.

I’d rather be a technophobe than a Philistine. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, if you reread what I wrote you might notice I said absolutely nothing about the technical side of it.

I see how far it’s come and I fucking hate it. It creates nothing, it wholly brings down the quality of art in the world and destroys countless people’s lives. There are no benefits

A very childish take
