Weed cat Picks on Nostr: "I want AI to do the dishes so I can make art, not make art so I can do the dishes" ...

"I want AI to do the dishes so I can make art, not make art so I can do the dishes" (paraphrasing one making the rounds)

So do we all, but ... the rich and powerful want AI to make art so they don't have to waste money on artists and writers. Right?

Is there more?

Art is where rebellion begins. Art brings joy and hope, art tells truth.

Are they trying to kill art altogether?
