the use of generative ai in books and movies is so disappointing. and this being lauded as some form of great feat and pursuit of artistry is even worse. there is no space for ai in art. there should be no space for efficiency in a medium that should inspire feeling. our need for authenticity shouldn’t come at the expense of sanitizing human artistry. to refine your craft takes time and it is precisely this time that helps you understand yourself better as an artist and the work you want to put into this world.
