       My unmitigated contempt for tech companies that do this has no bounds. It’s a “yes or no” question. If you lack the integrity to permit people to actually say “no” you’re failing as a company and as human beings. Sorry, but it’s true. Grow up.

       ngl whenever you do this with your popup you’re reminding me of a lot of dudes in a lot of bars who really did not grasp the concept of “consent”

       One of the many little frustrations I have, as a generative artist who writes all her own code and whose art doesn’t implicitly rely on large databases of training data lifted without permission from other artists, is that in the wider world outside a narrow tech community, people don’t draw any distinction between my artistic process and “feeding keywords into DALL-E”. I’m seriously considering abandoning the term “generative art” entirely.

       @mjg59 having been sexually assaulted at a conference I’m just going to straight up say no. 2 is considerably worse than 3

       This seems exactly correct. I make computational art, and I write about the same technical topics that LLMs aren’t terrible at. But I genuinely don’t think I’m losing my audience to the latest gpt model. It’s not my skill as a coder or an artist that makes people care about my work, it’s the connection between the author and the audience that makes it work. I’m not stackoverflow, I’m a human being who shows herself in her work
