Whenever I stop by and read comments in Anti AI subs, I always try to understand the other party's perspective on things. But usually just leave more confused and with a weird knot in my balls, as I read comments after comments seeing them bash people for using AI. But that's not why I walk away feeling weird and dazed.

It's the comments centered around harassment, and not the ones Anti's do to pro AI people, but... The comments they make saying that WE harass artists...

And that's the problem there, and why I feel weird and confused when leaving Anti spaces. They all agree on mass that we hate and down vote, and harass artists on the daily because...

They refuse to use AI. And as you can see here, this post from this sub, isn't being met with mass down votes or anger. But getting decent views and good reception. Not to mention I mod for a sub that allows both AI and non-AI work to be uploaded there, and many of the pro AI users could give a shit if the art is AI or not.

Again, I just... Don't get it? They lie so easily about stuff that's not true all just to create some... Imaginary divide. When many pro AI users don't care if the art is AI or not. Sadly when you view yourself as victim... You need a villain to justify your oppression...

What happens when you have an abundance of gold and distribute on mass? Simple, it starts to lose its value...

I've been in a lot of Anti AI spaces and I gotta tell ya. It's too damn easy, man... Like, I'm seeing posts, comments, saying that we send death threats to artist in bulk! Harass people for not using AI. Posts where mother fuckers are inventing slurs for people who use AI, saying we're ignorant and can't communicate with people outside of our own pro AI ideology... Just, wow.

And theirs just SOOOOOOOOOO much content there for me to farm, but... After awhile... It's just starts to lose its value. Sure, I can do it, and if I'm lucky make a career out if it and even make money from it, but...

I just don't wanna spam up the feed here, or in other subs, with stupid shit Anti's say. Which is why I normally space it out so it's at least still somewhat entertaining and not the same old same old.

This can also apply to AI artist too. But the problem I usually see with artist rather that be trads or AI artist is just a lack of marketing.

Like not having multiple social media accounts... Like in different social media apps, commenting on alot of posts... Stuff like that, and being active. Cause you won't build a name for yourself, so easily, just by typing out:

"Big tiddy waifu girl 4k"

And expect the follows and views to roll in. Not to mention people can... Kinda make the same thing you made with AI.

To me it doesn't really matter who threw the first stone or not, but instead... Why was the first stone thrown, and why now it's completely 1 sided?

To make this post as short as possible, I enjoy humor that pokes fun of marginalized groups, now before anyone starts throwing verbal stones at me, I also enjoy humor mocking white people and the like.

So what's my point? My point here is that I can take jokes that mock me along with dishing out offensive humor so it's never 1 sided to where only 1 group gets to make fun of the other... Enter... Like, most Anti AI groups or subs.

The first image out of the 3 was taken from an Anti AI sub where the poster and commenters were making light about the clear and obvious death threats to people who use Gen AI. And the messed up part here, is that I can take dark humor or edgy jokes as the comments in that sub are saying when it comes to online humor. However.

It's pretty much 1 sided so taking this seriously is next to impossible, hell you can even see it in the comments in that Anti AI sub/post. They can't hide behind edgy humor online, and then when mud is flung back at them, NOW it's harassment NOW it's no longer funny and NOW is that whole group of people dangerous.

But when they do it pfft, just edgy internet humor bruh, what are you some kinda pussy?

And this person dm'd me for some reason... Not sure what I did but... Ok?

So let's get into this. Some Anti's do kinda bring up good point regarding Pro AI advocates over looking or outright dismissing issues concerning AI and its effect on things and people and that is an issue that we should all address...

However.

There are some Pro AI folks who are also willing to debate and even admit to some of these issues that most, not some, Pro AI advocates don't wanna discuss. But sadly like the last 2 images in the post portray...

We gotta talk about the OTHER elephant in the room.

Anti's while having no investment in Gen AI can usually offer an unbiased take and can easily point out flaws in Gen AI. Especially if you're pro and just don't see them, however being unbiased doesn't mean you don't have flaws of your own.

The problem here, is Anti's kinda nit pick and also take things out of context as well. Infact I'm in a debate with an Anti on a pro AI music sub, and one of the many things I've noticed from Anti AI advocates...

Is that once they know your pro AI they open up with insults or hurling curse words at you out the gate. Not to mention some of them associate AI with retardation, homophobia, sexism, racism, capitalism, and even pedophilia all off the rip.

Now not all of them do that but it is safe to say it's not condemned in those spaces either.

My problem here is when Anti's make a very specific claim against AI or site something that's wrong. They rarely or ever look into those sources linked by the opposition or reply back. Often times bragging about blocking people who are pro AI cause we're all liars who engage in bad faith arguments.

So again, the first 10 image in this post that I downloaded from an Anti AI sub. Isn't really addressing the problems with Gen AI or the people who grossly missuse it, but instead just makes it seem like Anti's are the logical ones, while pro AI advocates are just ignoring issues and calling anyone that brings them up losers.

Creating realistic game animations has traditionally required hours of manual work, motion capture or carefully crafted animation systems.

NVIDIA's new AI research project, MotionBricks, explores a different approach. Instead of hand authoring every movement, developers can describe an action in natural language such as "pick up the sword like a zombie" and the system generates the corresponding animation in real time.

According to NVIDIA, MotionBricks is capable of producing animations at extremely high speeds with very low latency, making it suitable for interactive applications like games and simulations. While it's still an emerging technology, it hints at a future where developers can prototype or generate complex character behaviors much faster than traditional workflows.

If systems like this continue to improve, they could become powerful tools for game developers accelerating animation pipelines rather than replacing creativity. Will AI become a standard part of game animation or will handcrafted animation remain the gold standard??

For those of you in the know when it comes to gaming Valve released a new custom build gaming PC, however... It's priced well into the 1k's like, ain't no body gonna drop 1k or more on a custom gaming PC, at least no one on mass will, but I'm here to throw my 2 cents into the wind on this.

So the steam machine "allegedly" was gonna be priced at 760$ before AI came into the scene jacking up prices on mid to high tier PCs and gaming consoles, due to AI data centers needing a fuck ton of ram to help run those data centers... Or something I haven't been following closely into that

But the steam machine has tiers where the lowest is 1,050k and the highest being at 1.3k. But let's roll this bitch up.

Allegedly the original price for the steam machine was gonna be 760$ BUT we don't know if that 760$ was for the base. OR the high tier, most likely the 760$ was the cheapest. While the high tier one. Would've probably be in the mid to high end range of 950-999$ or probably 1,010k.

Alot of people are blaming AI for this price hike, and while there might? Be some truth there, at the end of the day this thing was always gonna hover, or cost around 1k to buy with or without AI...

Alrighty for those of you not into gaming, that's reading this, I'll make it short. Ram, which is used in PC and consoles has seen a price hike, due to AI data centers or whatever buying up a shit ton of ram to help run AI data centers and due to this.

The price for ram has gone up... Sufficiently, and increasing the price for some mid to high tier PC, and consoles, and recently... The steam machine which is basically... A fairly powerful custom PC made by Valve, which is a company that like... Made a platform were indie game devs and popular well knownn gaming companies, can host their games on their platform. But they recently got into making gaming PC or something.

Anyways, The steam machine before the AI explosion was priced to be at like... 750$ but currently now it's sitting at 1,050$... So, let's talk about that.

At the moment The steam machine-

(God that name sounds so stupid sounds like a fucking sauna)

Has a few tiers. The base system which only has like... 556 GB of space, is 1,050$ while the higher tier ones, which has 2TB of space, is sitting at 1.3k...

Obviously alot of people who like Valve, and have been waiting for something like this for... Shit, about 25 years more or less are rightfully pissed, however.

Burning down data centers that run AI won't pop the AI bubble, and magically drop the over 1k price for a custom build PC back to 760$ again. It's just not feasible to me.
