Something that doesn't get talked about enough is the creativity process. The 'humanness' of what we create isn't just in the end result, it's in the struggle, the iteration, the moment something clicks that you didn't expect..that's where creativity actually lives! And if we hand all of that to a machine, what are we left with?

We built the Rooverse app partly because of this but more so as a response to AI content constantly flooding social media. But the more we thought about it, the more we realised it was really about protecting something deeper. A space where the process still belongs to the person. Interested to hear what people here think. Do you think AI will gradually erode our creativity, or do you think human creativity is more resilient than we give it credit for?

For context I was browsing for a new webcomic to read and I found one called "Awakening the Purple Thunder at the Beginning" (it's a generic solo leveling copy but that's not important) but I come to find out they use AI for a lot of the art so naturally I passed and said as much in the comments. This AI bro replied to my comment with a decent sized paragraph saying "I haven’t read the story yet, but my God people who are against AI need to understand sooner or later AI will dominate our world. Of course we should have restriction in some cases against AI like AI soldiers or robot soldiers, but AI will significantly increase our human development. We will be able to solve a lot of the problems that we haven’t been able to for several years increase the lifespan of human race in in general. It will help out the human race and I’m not against the AI art some of the AI art is actually good. Why because if you can remove some of the smallest thing for an example drawing a table and chair in the background of the character, you can literally have the AI do it for you so the real artist don’t have to spend several hours drawing that chair and table. This is my opinion if you don’t like it, you can shove it in your ass, but you guys need to fucking understand that AI will help out in every company and everything around the world is going to adopt AI sooner or later if you are against AI, you won’t have a job in a couple of years and if you don’t like AI, you won’t be able to read any stories or play any video games or go online because it will be moderated by AI everything will be used by AI so you have to get used to it and we have to evolve as a human race and a society just like like, however, predecessor who used to live in the village, move to the cities and work in the factories for a better life same thing with like machineries working in the field to produce a lot of food so we don’t have to use manual laborers, meaning people and this is the same situation we have with the AI if the AI can do the work of hundred people to improve medicine or something else is much better because those hundred people could be doing something else"

This is so stupid ngl it feels like the dude is just regergitating the same AI bro stance of "AI is the future so therefore it's good and you should shut up and deal with it" it seems like this guy has done little to no research on this topic and is again repeating what other AI bros have said probably on Twitter.

Basically I wanna tell this guy how ignorant they are but I need advice on how to do it without being really mean and sounding ignorant myself lol

Also I can provide a screenshot of that's needed lol

I’m not trying to ragebait or do anything annoying seriously, I am officially diagnosed with a mental disorder (extreme OCD) and I’ve been driving myself insane drying to avoid anything that’s AI during my works of art or writing. I understand that using generative AI to generate a story and just pasting it onto a page or using an image generator is obviously a mockery of art, but at what point is it not wrong? Sometimes I use AI to find sources of information, like animal facts or websites relevant to the kind of thing I’m drawing, but I get scared that counts as using AI for art.

Please, I’ve been constantly starting over and I literally can’t start and it’s been months. Every-time I write or draw anything, I get an intrusive fear that something was borrowed from AI and I delete it all. AI is everywhere, in search engines, in algorithms, everything is tainted. My own mind isn’t safe. I shut off all my electronics and just focus yet even then there’s the fear that my mind subconsciously borrowed a trope, idea, or visualization from something that was AI generated.

Please, tell me what is okay!!
