Why should AI generation not be used to reduce workload?

I’m asking for the crowd here: why… would it do that?

If you got time to lean, you got time to clean. As your manager, we have 105 AI pipelines generating content we’d like to get into the next build. I’d like you to evaluate and process all the output by tomorrow. K thanks~

That, by definition, is not slop.

You have a profoundly different definition of that word, then. As always, it is purely aesthetics with you people.

I’m not even sure you can call it cheap

You know that factories, those things that make your doritos and your mcdonalds soda straws, are really expensive buidlings, right? By gosh, how can a single bag of chips ahoy cost $3.49, then? We’ll never know.

But to fault a tool for being attractive to those which use it nefariously

Cigarettes are a tool. Maybe your grandpa shouldn’t have smoked so many—he might still be alive.

AI is either slop that can never live up to the creative intricacies …

AI is a dangerous technology that serves to completely eclipse and replace artists …

This is not a contradiction.

AI is better at specifically one thing: volume. And, cheap garbage you can convince some schmuck to pay for is a pretty attractive offer to suits who care more about the lines on their graph paper than the things their employees are making.

People have long complained about modern Hollywood being plagued by shitty, formulaic, half-baked sequels to movies that came out 40 years ago: AI, as a technology, represents more of this, but with even fewer people who give a shit.
