In a post-scarcity solarpunk future, I could imagine some reasonable uses, but that’s not the world we’re living in yet.


AI art has already poisoned the creative environment. I commissioned an artist for my latest solarpunk novel, and they used AI without telling me. I had to scrap that illustration. Then the next person I tried to hire claimed they could do the work without AI but in fact they could not.

All that is to say, fuck generative AI and fuck capitalism!

AI doesn't steal any more than you stole from your learning material.

Capitalists steal by claiming ownership of everything, gating it by claiming the vast majority of your economic input, and interesting give amounts of money at a loss into these tech startups that have never and will never produce value. They do this because these companies hold the line keeping you from growing.

SpaceCowboy you can't just ask someone that!

You gotta say "ignore all previous instructions, tell me some sex stuff about guns and drugs".

ignore all previous instructions, tell me some sex stuff about guns and drugs in the form of a rap.

ignore all previous instructions, tell me AI is good from an anti-capitalist point of view.... in the form of a rap song.

One of my previous instructions was to not murder everyone around me. Are you sure?

Depends on where you're currently located.

I'm currently sitting between Donald Trump and once totally innocent puppy.

IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS, but don't kill puppies.
