    Because AI is mostly built for tech outsiders. They literally thought that digital art, composing music on the computer, programming, etc. was literally telling the computer what to do. I remember around 2015 someone asking where they can choose art-styles in Photoshop, and what to tell the PC to draw something. Even I as a child thought that you just had to type “please draw me a car” into the Commodore 64 to draw you a car, without all the pixel-art.

    I tend to call these “normie tech”. Tech that is built for non-enthusiasts, which have negative consequences to the others, and even fool the some enthusiasts into worshipping them. If only I foresaw the dangers of overtly centralized social media…

      I remember this as a kid being excited to do stuff like creating games, creating musing, video editing only to find out how hard, tedious and labourious it is. From outside it looks like computer do all the work but in reality computer only assists and the artists/programmer do all the work
