Generative AI - Policy Discussion

if it's for the purposes of shitposts and more or less laughing at the generative ml algo rather than with it, i have no problem with it. any usage of it that doesn't fundamentally rest on its provenance as generative ml feels wrong to me. i can't say it has no serious artistic purpose, but it really has to look and feel more like the stuff we were seeing a couple of years ago, right? something that makes it feel only possible by the ai and its strange and alien way of analyzing and creating images or text or whatnot (and thus we can say isn't just copying a few artists)

that's about as liberal as i will get in its favor though; if there were an outright ban on generative ml material, i wouldn't miss it at all.
