A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Probably to find the small joys in life.
You can get a free library card and use their computers to access plenty of free AI image generators. So they do not have to pay for anything if they don't want to.
Is your alternative that they should shun AI art and either go without it all together or work more to afford a commission?
At our library we teach people how to do art, including crochet. If the person is able to go to the library then they aren't being gatekeeped from learning art.
My alternative? AI art isn't even art so at this point we're just debating what is a better skill: crafting or prompting.
