  • It’s impossible to be “convinced” by this utter narrow-minded, degrading, obliterating, permanently damaging sorrow…

    At some point, you just get tired of stating on public over and over… over and over… that absolutely no AI must ever exist in human art - never ever at all…

    Art has a meaning, a weight, precious priceless value, the purpose… only when it’s of a human work…
    Art is also a timeless universal conversation between people passing experience, ideas, love…
    Regardless, whether it’s an asset, texture, shape, shader…
    This is all what is to be preserved in the history…
    Of the history of us the miracles, human…

    A hand-made work has a Human’s name on it… Who lived, learned, experienced… and expressed their unique view in a work to pass further…
    The artist’s name may not be advertised, but it would exist and always possible to find to glorify…
    Since isn’t it one of the main purposes of Art? To achieve, experience, to express and learn from each other…
    This is an achievement that also supports you in long-term, as an Artist, who managed, who achieved, who learned and did it…

    Now, someone used AI in their work, and now the output has no name on it. It’s empty. It’s noise.
    AI in art is always an unbearable noise… built on stolen and meatground effort of actual artists…
    It radiates with screams and cries in painful sorrow… of unknown effort and love now decimated and passed through an algorithm of shallow hopelessness at vacuumed void…

    There’s nothing in AI for art, and there’s no achievement deserved to be inscribed into our human history… to learn from… to be proud of…

    If I ever see anything related to AI in any art-related subjects, I don’t even consider it but skip it - it’s a disgusting empty noise that does not deserve any human time nor effort.

    All these “AI” infestations are pure awful disrespect to our ancestors, the Human history… and our dear future…

    And I will never consider it. It would mean death to me, since there’s no hope nor purpose in it to live for.

    Miyamoto explained that there is a difference between creating and “executing” an idea, which has changed over time as technology has changed, and AI is at risk of replacing the execution element of many jobs.

    “The tricky part is that the execution phase is actually quite enjoyable, and it provides a real sense of satisfaction,” Miyamoto said via Japanese outlet 4Gamer. “The greatest danger is becoming so content with the execution that you mistakenly believe you’ve created something truly great.”…

    “I urge you to move away from the approach of taking an existing, enjoyable game and simply modifying it to make it ‘even better’,” he said. “It is far more rewarding, and I believe, much more fun to start from scratch, building upon an original idea that stems from the thought: ‘wouldn’t it be interesting to try something like this?'”

    This, Shigeru Miyamoto’s, is authentic… truthful… that gives hope, will power to keep moving forward… to believe…
    This is the genuine… These are hands, mind, heart, experience, love…
    This will always be invaluably precious and significant…
    This a true Artist attitude.

  • When first read “class”, I imagined you annotate classes in programming with comments as “@see https://redd.it/...”, which is what I do for any related crucial enough context, including StackExchange, repository sources etc.

    Yet, in your case, you meant classes in schools/Universes/etc. which is a marvel…

    Children learn from examples mostly, and your examples are crucial…

    Thank you… Thank you heartfelt… for teaching children, people accountabilty and respect towards others’ effort and the history…







  • Holy gracious smokes…
    I rarely comment on such cases, but… but sometimes it’s so challenging to… to realize how “AI” is getting used nowadays even if you try closing eyes on it already just to keep moving forward… and not stagnate in sorrow…

    I’ve just noticed the following video-game posted, and which was blurred by an anti-AI extension installed: “AI Warning For Steam”.

    I would skip it entirely if not a recent conversation regarding it noticed on certain IRC channel, and myself having experience in crystal manufactories…
    Then, I opened the Steam store page, and read:

    # AI Generated Content Disclosure…

    Some of the artwork used on this store page, including the capsule art, was created using generative AI tools.

    Source: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5095670/Chip_Builder

    Attached the “capsule art” mentioned.
    Dear ruby smokes… The Authors, Artists, Developers of such projects, please do consider taking a photo of an actual motherboard with the logo engraved or applied in Photoshop… and remove this sorrowful disclosure…

    Otherwise, your project may get missed, unnoticed, and not get a significant attention from those who actually search for it…

  • This does not look like a counterpoint to me, but a yet another example that experience, knowledge, the history must not be forgotten, otherwise it may be rewritten by those who have time and power, and filled with lies, backed by propaganda, and damaged someone’s life.

    Information vacuum… - A situation where a lack of reliable information leads to speculation or the spread of rumors. It often occurs during crises or fast-moving events when official communication is absent or delayed.

    Please do consider mentioning your evidence in the Wikipedia pages or a blog post, so that other people would learn from it, and make less mistakes in the future…


  • Every single LLM/AI vendor works hard and dreams for humans to depend on them… When you have a dependency, you outsource certain task on it, and in case of AI, it means agentic, generative, plagiaristic, inhumane…
    Results of these tasks may not be correct, desired, valuable, and degrade cognitive attitude and damage accumulated knowledge…

    Eventually, AI-Users may not know any other way than using an AI-for their task, paying for it, and atrophying their life even further…
    In the end, such people may become manipulatable and controllable with their environments monitored and limited on-demand by authorities…

    When Chrome 147 launches against an eligible profile, the omnibox - the address bar at the top of the window, the most visible piece of real estate in the entire browser - renders an “AI Mode” pill to the right of the URL field. A reasonable user, seeing “AI Mode” sitting in their browser’s most prominent UI element in 2026, with the well-publicised existence of on-device LLMs in Chrome and a 4 GB Gemini Nano binary already silently installed on their disk, is going to draw what feels like an obvious inference - that the visible AI Mode is using the on-device model, that their queries stay on the device, that the local model is what powers the local-looking surface.

    Every part of that inference is wrong. The AI Mode pill in the Chrome 147 omnibox is a cloud-backed Search Generative Experience surface - every query the user types into it is sent over the network to Google’s servers for processing by Google’s hosted models. The on-device Nano model is not invoked by the AI Mode UI flow at all. They are entirely separate code paths - the most visible AI affordance in the browser does not use the local model the user has been silently given

  • There’s a similar fear indeed I feel regarding it, too…
    I do also recall the following blog read:

    There is a darker, conspiratorial interpretation of today’s hardware trends…
    That’s paranoia… or is it? If you think that dystopian…
    The reason I’m writing all of this isn’t to create panic, but to help put things into perspective…

    Meanwhile, we should be careful, since there’s fear and anxiety, yes… yet rants, politics, and some scopes of information flow are either unintentionally spread (e.g. by someone who is deep into trends flow) or intentionally/specially designed to be used for manipulative effect to de-focus you/us from our viewpoints, create fractures in dreams, hopes, and derail us from chosen, genuine, always important actual paths for actually meaningful and magnificent miracles… our duties, beliefs…

    When you’re watching television, you’re watching the news, you’re being pumped full of fear, there’s floods, there’s aids, there’s murder, cut to commercial, buy the Acura, buy the Colgate…
    Keep everyone afraid, and they’ll consume…

    When someone was willing to drown with me, I really didn’t want to drown anymore…

    Therefore, it’s always important to keep the peace in mind, and keep the infinitely marvelous light closer to the heart flowing within brilliant Jazz of steady notes of fathom…

    Come and go, please…
    And watch it swallow me…
    I bleed…

  • Thank you, @destructdisc@lemmy.world ! ^^

    I read it yesterday, but did’t publish here considering someone else did already. Yet, apparently… you just did!


    This is all… such a… dear… sorrow… no words may express it…

    I’ve been in Linux for around 20 years now…
    And this is freaking f… awful to see…

    The thing is that these projects, as Linux, Aircrack, cryptography, exploits I’ve been into for many years… created by actual developers who learned, who managed… who achieved… had been inspiring me to also learn, to discover, to achieve…

    Now? It starts to mean nothing.
    Now, there’s someone lazy who “achieved” something being lucky enough for their stupid prompt for a model to generate a desired output.

    It’s worth nothing. It’s worthless.

    The fact that once hackers/effortful/artists/people, now don’t learn, don’t discover, don’t communicate, don’t share, don’t publish, don’t think for fudge sake… with their head/mind on their shoulders atrophying… don’t achieve, don’t deserve their name mentioned since they didn’t write it but their/vendor’s models did…

    This AI infestation? This ruins all of it, it overwrites the Git/human history with actual ingenious people leaving behind…
    Devaluing everything…

    Such a sorrowful time to live… and see/feel of this… with so many indifferent and careless people… who just need a result without any understanding and realization how it actually works or was derived…

    I cannot still wrap that around my mind properly…
    I try to think less about the history being obliterated, people getting forgotten, ingenious ideas devalued…

    Also note that the python visualizer tool has been basically written by vibe-coding. I know more about analog filters – and that’s not saying much…

    Source: https://github.com/torvalds/AudioNoise

    Yet, there’s also “copyright”:
    - https://github.com/torvalds/AudioNoise/blob/main/LICENSE

    How is that a copyright if this project was created by a machine/algorithm, not him?
    How is that inhuman output worth a copyright that is supposed to be for humans only?

    Just to clarify, I appreciate Linux and the Community for the ineffably magnificent history… the operating system, the freaking marvelous effort and love within all it… I’ve been literally living in Linux for decades or so, I adore working with Linux… being a developer in security and finance systems…

    It’s just… it’s just… so much gets devalued and ruined… and faster, faster, faster!
    Where the heck are we all so hurry at? Hello?! Anyone?!

    You don’t even get time to live this life already, and now with the history getting rewritten on our eyes, code written with no names on it, music slopped, “slop-articles” published, “artworks” set in video-games… everything with no soul no effort in it, nameless…

    In the end, we do we. I’ve been making my life with the beliefs in the precious value of achievements of human lives, be it code, algorithm, music, artwork, art, human experience…

    Creating exploits, findings holes, adjusting security, break unbreakable etc. these are all achievements and you live with them.
    You then could remember, after 10 years or more, that You achieved it. It would give you strength to continue living, a purpose.

    It’s been giving me the purpose to continue living, too…

    Artists as the following video author though still give warmth to the heart… the dear hope… which is heartfelt, dear Soulfelt appreciated…

  • Roger that. Thank you for the clarification that you meant the actual term, and not just the fact of no mandatory payment and it having an the source available for public.

    I get what you mean, yet frankly, I do not believe such projects may be always free that are supposed to always be up-to-date for another system they have no official relation to, and keep it as a responsible hobby other people depend on.
