not simply the pleasure neurotransmitter. this clicked so hard for me when i realized that my favorite part of smoking weed every single nite was setting up my desk and tray, grinding the weed, rolling the joint, packing the joint, and lighting the joint––not the high itself. realizing that helped me to build alternative habits that had a similar rhythm to them.
this is why those tiktok videos go on forever before getting to the actual point. they're sucking the dopamine from you second by second because you are anticipating the point.
also important: your dopamine cravings get reset overnight meaning the morning is a great time to build good habits and the night time is when you have to either fight the hardest against bad habits OR just give into it because a lotta nites you probly deserve it :D

you can do whatever you want, but if you really want to hear my opinion on it... at best, ai-art is demoralizing to actual human beings and creates novelty slop that vaugely looks like an art piece, while not harboring any skill in using it. and theres nothing wrong with not wanting to make art fir the skill of it, though. but at worst, it's an environmental and economic disaster, a predatory business model to consumers and customers of AI, and a great way for businessmen to try and take creativity away from us to turn us into cogs in the machine. it's built off of the stolen work of artists who already struggled to make a living, now forced out by a tool that's turned on them with their own work. it can help make propaganda that is virtually unidentifiable, turn victims into deepfakes, and generally evil we have yet to see. and that's just the image side of things, but the cons of all types of ai models overlap.
I've had to watch people throw away their lifelong dreams because of this garbage. it's no coincidence elonely muskrat and every ceo you can think of are obsessed with it - it's a perverse business tool.
I wouldn't mind coexisting with it if it wasn't out to get me. but it is.
I also feel like it's the reason nobody makes fun photobashes or random photoshops anymore. it will never fully phase out human art but I think it's starting to take over the photography world, especially commercially. I'm sick of looking up real places and animals and sorting through fake slop im being told is real.
