This is one of the most infuriating arguments AI proponents make. It is absolutely ridiculous on its face if you think about it for more than a second.

Yesterday someone quoted Elon at me, which go fuck yourself but I digress, saying “we’ll have universal basic abundance”. Who? Not me and you, that’s for fucking sure because we literally have enough RIGHT NOW. So where is it? Rhetorical question of course because the same dickhead making these absurd claims about a tech utopia is also actively fighting against systems that would make it harder for people like him to hoard so much wealth.

Goddamn it.

They can do both, you know. They love nothing more than cringe content and “righteous” violence.

Or someone trying to eek out a living with their music can get paid to do so. There’s no shortage of music to suit people’s tastes, the problem is discovering it because Spotify sucks at recommendations, and actively promotes AI slop to pad their profit margins while stiffing real musicians. So many mixes use AI instead of recommending actual artists specifically so they don’t have to pay royalties.

There might be a market for talentless trash music generators, but it actively harms real people creating real music with their real talent, and I refuse to participate. Fuck AI music. Just because there’s a market for something, doesn’t automatically mean it’s good, or the right thing to do.

Fuck Oracle. They charge absolutely insane prices for their licenses and you may as well just send them a blank check because no matter what, they’re getting their slice of the pie. Larry Ellison is a disgusting MAGA cuck too. I hope he burns in hell.
