I honestly do not think “AI will never be as good as human creativity” is a good argument at this point. Like yes, it is true right now, but they’re just going to keep trying to prove it wrong. To me the line is, “Modern AI is built off of PLAGIARISM, UNPAID and UNDERPAID labor.” AI is a labor rights issue, not just for the people who’s labor it would replace, but for the people whose labor was STOLEN for the AI to “create” anything.

All of this. Plus, they aren't TRYING to be as good as human creativity. They're trying to be FASTER than human creativity. One of the tech bros working on AI came right out and said that AIs will never write better than people. What it CAN do is write FASTER. And eventually, real writers will get drowned in the flood and be almost impossible to find. THAT is their goal. Not to replace us, but simply to ERRADICATE us. And they're using our own stolen words to do it. They are trying to kill the very CONCEPT of creativity.

I am begging, begging y’all to understand the difference between gore and body horror please.

Body horror is transformation/monstrous sort of things like a mouth where you shouldn’t have one or like, the shifting bones and whatnot in werewolf transformations. It is where something horrific is happening within the body itself.

It is not a bloody nose, cuts, wounds, injuries ect. That is gore. It is not scars, limb differences, or visual disabilities either.

For fuck’s sake please learn this stuff because the next time I see someone tagging a scarred or disabled character as “body horror” I am gonna lose it.

[Image ID: a section from doesthedogdie, a site that allows users to put common triggers on movies. The question is "Is there body horror?". There are 4 votes for Yes, and 0 votes for No. The text below, which elaborates where and what the trigger is, says "bloody head/nose and some cuts on a childs arm from her mum. also an infected rabbit bite on the protagonist".]

Unless that infected rabbit bite is infected in the werewolf way, i dont want to see body horror tagged as it

Hey, hot take, but if a company decides they no longer want to distribute a piece of media they own the rights to, then they should be legally required to sign the rights back over to the creator.

They shouldn't be allowed to just sit on the IP for the rest of time, especially if they have no intention of ever releasing it again.

#i thought this was gonna say “then they shouldn't be allowed to punish piracy of it”

You know what, that's also a valid take, let's add that to the post

In computer gaming there's a concept called Abandonware that runs on this premise. That if the company isn't making it and selling it anymore, it's acceptable to copy/download/pirate it.

Applied in a wider sense, if there's no way for you to access it legally, then illegally is fuckin' fine.

But yes, if the owner isn't using it they ought to be obligated to make it available to someone who will.
