How do you keep from being depressed about AI? (lemmy.world)

A pretty daily thought for me now is "there's no point to this, AI can do it in 1 second, and no one cares" when thinking about doing anything art or programming related. Pretty much anything we do that is on a computer is totally useless now, and companies will probably be firing us all in 10 years or less if you aren't a manual laborer.

The worst part is, I could be tricked by AI even now. The thought of hearing a song i like, and then finding that it's AI, makes me physically sick. But 99% of the population wont care one bit.

I pretty much try to ignore it all, and I figure I'll shut off the internet and enjoy my collection of physical art that I know was made by humans. It just really sucks that we are going down this path and it's going to utterly destroy us. And no one seems to realize how bad it's going to get.

I had it happen that an artist I never heard of on Spotify came up and I kinda liked the music so I wanted to see what they were doing because it was sub 10k listents.

Literally all people pointing out how obvious the ai was an I felt like such an idiot. If I'm looking out for it I can spot it but I can't just be vigilant 24/7 it's exhausting.

Yeah like I like ambient, drone, instrumental, and simple melodic musics (among others). Literally two chords, stretched out over a minute will do it for me. The sonic equivalent of Piet Mondrian type simple/abstract colour blocking.

It's so incredibly easy for me to get fooled.

It still feels bad, but it's not your fault. You don't owe it to anyone to cultivate difficult taste. It's the fault of the person who set up the computer to generate slop based on the work of thousands of well-meaning artists.
