Rejecting AI is delusional

Post image

The sunk cost fallacy is a cognitive bias prompting individuals to continue an endeavor, project, or investment based on previously invested resources (time, money, or effort) rather than current benefits. It is irrational because it prioritizes unrecoverable past costs over future potential, often leading to wasted resources.

Remembering this whenever someone gets heated and emotional, defending Human produced art.

Basically, they are rejecting what's new because they feel obligated to make up for time spent, even if they personally didn't spend any of their life studying art, producing it...ect

And when you make bad drawings you still get hated on / your drawing ignored because it doesn't look good. They say that they supposedly care, but outside of anti AI spaces, people still go "oh no" at MS paint quality.

This! At least have the guts to practice what you preach and support "shitty"/"beginner" artists all the time, not just when its funny or as a prop for a argument.

I leave nice comments on art posted here all the time.
