    As much as i hate AI generated art, this is a shit argument. You can run an AI on your phone (which you would have anyway) without a subscription. You can also doodle on your phone for free.

      Yeah I feel it would be better if they they have shown the sheer cost of making these models and their upkeep instead.

      It’s perfectly fine price to use in cancer treatment. But when they mention AI girlfriends I want to scream.

        It’s not even the cost of training the AI. A better argument is that using AI for art is pure fucking laziness in 99.9% of cases.

        Also, why have an AI waifu when you can have a real one and touch grass at the same time?

        My friend, phones can be very cheap and accessable and most has one. Like one of the comments said below said, you can find a cheap phone for under 100 dollars.

          keep in mind that 40% of the global population doesn’t own a smartphone.

          that’s billions of people that you’re leaving out of your analysis which doesn’t sound very fair to them. you don’t understand poverty because you’re assuming your living conditions will be the same as theirs.

            Do i have to consider every person alive whenever i make a comment? of course, people in poverty will have different ways of doing things and won’t be able to afford things you and I can. I thought this is a given, no?
