It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Most art sucks. scroll through deviant art you know I am right. This is a toy that will eventually let non-artists make art that sucks. Which is fun. It would still require an artist to make AI art come out well. Where you are at emotionally is where the old animators were when flash player came out. Did skilled animators lose their position in the market? Do we get to see cool.new linds of animation and ideas now? Was the proliferation of kinds of animation we get to see worth it? Are the animators who still work miserably exploited anyway? Everything is always gonna get worse all the time. Having a thing that lets more people enjoy art seems like a better outcome than the usual enshittification we expect. I am not sure where you disagree with me. Lets look at a case study. One of the big vfx channels on YouTube, corridor, sometimes uses AI to help streamline production for their videos. Is that bad?
