(a rant after seeing more dumb comments on LinkedIn…a never-ending supply it would seem! 😂)

I wish I didn’t have to keep saying this.

No, it’s not “AI-generated music.” It’s synthetic sound data extruded from a dataset.

No, it’s not “AI-generated film.” It’s synthetic pixel frame data extruded from a dataset.

No, it’s not “AI-generated novel.” It’s synthetic text extruded from a dataset.

Music, films, novels, artwork, and various other artforms are created by human minds and can only be understood and appreciated by other human minds. The only “mind” behind extruded synthetic data is an algorithmically-regurgitated mix of what real minds have produced and—in most cases—never agreed to having their creative work regurgitated in the first place.

Real artistic tools are used by artists to help them express themselves emotionally via a combination of clever skill, inherent talent, and a willingness to try new things. Without the grounding of experience-based emotion, what you get is dead and meaningless.

GenAI “art” is nothing more than digital zombie barf. And sharing it with anyone outside your private chambers is rude!
