@hipsterelectron@fasterandworse I'm literally in pain all the time and I'm in worse pain when I paint, or draw, or write, or type, and not even that can stop me from wanting to make things
@hipsterelectron@fasterandworse artists despite having been shat on for literally thousands of years nevertheless continue to bring beautiful art into our world. No technology magnate is going to succeed at stopping artists from making their arts where so many teachers and parents who would have preferred a lawyer or perhaps a doctor instead had failed.
@hipsterelectron@fasterandworse the real reason why making art is never going to be obsolete is because it's a deep human impulse to try to make things that feel alive, to play with our senses, and to try to communicate the things we can't with words. For the most part children have to be trained to stop making art, we have a whole industry set up for that.
@hipsterelectron@fasterandworse I've noticed "ai" generated images being used a lot in advertising these days, and I think most of what they're getting out of it right now is that it is something ordinary people can recognize as being "high tech" and that can give it a cool factor, but only up until the point where it peaks and the shit starts sliding down the hill. The "ai" image generation artifacts will inevitably look dated to ordinary people.

I found my fountain pen from high school! A Parker, made in France :) Smoother feel but wider and paradoxically thinner (i.e. grayer) line.
