@lucydev It's also condescending, insulting, to disabled people to suggest that if some of them, IDK, struggle with a paint brush what is needed is for the computer to draw it for them rather than for all of us to look and listen with more care to the work that they create.1/

@lucydev I heard a guy say AI could "make art more diverse" and he had all these images of black elves and dwarfs. As if "lacking diversity" were just a surface issue not one built into who gets to participate, who has the time for creative expression. As if just pasting in a different colored face were the same thing as having an artist who wanted to draw that diversity and whose work would be informed and improved by the culture and experience that inform it. 2/

@lucydev These AI as equity arguments aren't coming from people who have ever said anything about "equity" before this moment, and they will never say anything about equity after this moment. They don't really care about equity. They just want to have something to say that might people pause in their criticism. "What if it really could help people?" Let that go. If it could help people you'd see people using AI effectively to help people. They are using it as cover. 3/3
