I like generative AI as a tool, it's nice to try things out with roleplay bots or use it as a starting point for a topic, sadly it is the perfect lazy man's tool. I've been talent-less hacks use generative AI to make money. They've done nothing in the creation of the image or video yet they have the audacity to be compensated?! People in the comments praise the image, some ask questions like "which model did you use?" or "what prompts did you use?" these grifters say that it's a secret. Which is ironic because people that support generative AI would often say that art is free and yet I see these people gate keep information. Some of these grifters hide the fact they use generative AI and will silence anyone that questions them.

I see it as a net negative in a sense that I will have to waste time making sure what I'm looking at is worth supporting. Right now it's easy to tell if something was made by a person or if it was shat out by a robot. In the future it'll be more difficult to tell, yay.
