Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum.
Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

"The format didn't die, they’ve just found a way to shed its labor costs. This strategy seems to replace union-protected talk shows with non-union "video podcasts" that serve the exact same corporate PR playbook."
Netflix picked up a Pete Davidson "video podcast" which isn't really a podcast as it doesn't have an RSS audio portion. Hmm... This got me wondering about the deals.

Podcasts Without Union Protection — Writing and Whatnot

I have learned that there is an arcade in Chicago that features an animatronic Misfits cover band called THE BISCUITS...and one of their signature songs is "Where Beagles Dare." I'm sorry to anything else on my calendar today, but this is all I'm thinking about.

"Ethical AI" is the new "Carbon Credit". It's just a lie to obfuscate that the same nasty shit is going on right there, just one layer deeper. Throwing a progressive blanket on it. Don't fall for it
"Ethical AI" does not exist. There is no reality where you can have generative AI that's "ethically trained". There are ZERO AI models trained ethically, and there will never be any.
The term has been made up by people who want a pass on using AI. You don't get that pass, slop peddlers.
