    I’m not nearly as passionate in my attitude toward generative AI, because I think it CAN in theory be used in productive ways, but I ultimately agree with him more than I disagree.

    I think if we were not living under such comodified circumstances, it wouldn’t be much of a problem, But since we do, I think he’s completely correct that it’s a corrosive development in a world in which art has always been in a tug of war between people who enjoy making and consuming it and people who see it purely as a means of enriching themselves.
