¶ If I use an “AI” to generate an illustration instead of asking a designer I am saying that while my skills and labor has value, that of the designer has not. This implicitly cuts my ability to form connections of solidarity with designers whose work and livelihood I have implicitly declared irrelevant. It makes me put myself over my fellow workers, workers who are facing the same struggles as me, who are my comrades. But no more. ( https://tante.cc/2026/04/21/ai-as-a-fascist-artifact/ by @tante ) This is why I don't fucking trust writers who generate and use slop images — the complete disregard of artists and lack of solidarity. Also if they use genslop “art,” who’s to say they don't do the same with their so-called #writing? #AI #NoAI
