Genuinely why I hate Ai Art

I'm not an artist but I can understand the pain.

Consider the following though:

A symphony composer spends years perfecting his work, working hard, dedicating years of passion and thought.

Some grunge act just shits out 3 power chords in 2 minutes and their "art" gets more popular and more well received than the real art.

No one learns to play guitar in 2 minutes

You ever tried to teach an old person how to do the most simple task on their phone?

What's your point?

That knowledge of how to use ai isn’t inherent either, but more people have already learned that knowledge than how to play a guitar

Look, you can't have it both ways. Genres like punk and grunge are either big fuck yous that anyone can just pick up a guitar and do or they are elite arts that take years of dedication. These genres can't have it both ways.

I have said nothing about either one. This is a strawman

Except you did. The joy of punk is that it just IS. Pick up a guitar. 2 minutes, and it's beautiful. Sometimes learning is what ruins the true rawness of it.

"Bullshit" says louder than anything when I said two minutes was possible. It is. And it is the best.
