Just like how AI is evolving, so am I with it. AI cannot surpass me. It cannot create what it hasn't seen. I can do it. I do it everyday. If it uses me as a reference, that only enables me to become better. It is a battle that I shall fight till I cease to exist.

🎨I don't want to read books and essays written by AI.
I don't want to watch films made by AI.
I don't want to look at art and photos made or modified by AI.
I don't want to see messy preschooler drawings refined and interpreted by AI.
etc.
But I avoid it especially because I don't want to lose myself.
Creating is hard: I struggle. I sweat. I weep. I doubt myself and wrestle with insecurity and hate my parents and family and friends and I'm going to die on the streets and think that I'd never get it right and gloom and I'm an imposter and a fraud and the gaping chasm of despair gnawing fear and —
and from that pit of struggle emerges a diamond, something precious and glistening that I didn't know could be found
Then I see that through the pain of hammering for that diamond, I've changed and grown, and this beauty that I'm now beholding, I know what it took to get to that! I paid for that, and everything I lost was gained back.
AI lets me skip all that.
All of the process and pain and growth can be bypassed.
Instead I can get really good at prompting. Whenever I get stuck and the muse is silent, AI will get me moving again. I never need to struggle. I never need to grow. My skills never need to evolve.
It's easier, it's faster, everyone else is doing it, blah blah blah, I'll fall behind if I don't use it, accelerate! more! be more efficient. We worship the god of efficiency here! bigger! FEED THE MACHINE. faster! insane beserker growth! why? because we are thirsty for more. produce! produce! produce!
No thanks. Even if it means others are producing more and louder and flashier better tighter, no thanks.
I'll fall behind if I have to.
Fall behind with me.

🤖this is a pretty common one, but in my grad program there were people using AI to write papers/homework assignments/projects and then patting themselves on the back like they found some kind of life hack. they all graduated and have decent jobs but man was that a bleak omen of what education is becoming.

You’re far less interesting or intelligent than you think and you’d be better off being told what to do.
Humanity is electromagnetic and AI is just a new limb we’re growing. “Artifical” is not even the right word. It’s real intellegence scalped together more efficiently than you ever could.
You are not any less important and you just need to pivot to health and wellness. There will be a war before there is peace and you have no way to stop it and no reason to fight back.

🚬It's not in our hands sometimes but it's not cool to be surrounded by people who don't take anything seriously

🚬Y'all ever write a word and suddenly it looks wrong? Like, the word just looks unusual. Then you cross it out and write it again but it's still the same cause the spelling is right but it looks so wrong! And so you repeat, but it remains the same and at that point you're agitated! What the actual fuck is wrong with me!
And so you just ignore it and continue writing but it still bothers you. You look in the dictionary and the spelling is still the same and the word still looks wrong and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.
