Ai is shit. It makes shit. It's powered by precious fresh water and it wastes monumental amounts of electricity. And y'know, the massive amounts of theft.

All to what? Generate some soulless bullshit?

If you're making art to defy the rich, maybe actually make the fucking art yourself? Instead of making empty, lifeless facsimilies of resistance art?

Unless it's run on a local machine, the billionaires are still getting money

How?

User Numbers = Venture Capitalists. They don't need to see immediate profit to invest. They just need to see a user base and a feasible plan to make profit. See Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, InstaCart and most infamously MoviePass.

The billionaires are winning that battle, but losing the war. (Hopefully.)

Edit: If you can do $0.25 in billionaire economic damage with $0.10 in AI credits, you have won. I think this is entirely feasible, and simply needs scale.
