So, I recently came to the belief that GenAI is a fraud, because think about it; GenAI's entire dataset is fraudulently obtained by plagiarism, similar to how funds are fraudulently obtained in, say, a pyramid scheme or a Ponzi scheme, and just like how pyramid schemes and Ponzi schemes collapse when they run out of marks to rope into themselves, and as a result run out of cash flow, or when everyone which a Ponzi scheme roped into itself tries to cash out all at once, so will GenAI when or if it runs out of data to steal.
Beyond that, the damage that the GenAI grift has done is worse than any Ponzi scheme or pyramid scheme could ever hope to cause as it's destroyed or weakened entire industries and market segments, and it's actively destroying the environment.
It's also very telling that nearly 18 years ago, we locked up Bernie Madoff until he died in prison for orchestrating what was at the time the largest Ponzi scheme in history, but we're letting people like Sam Altman, who if GenAI is a fraud like I think it to be, is basically the modern-day Bernie Madoff, run a

in reply to Lavali Art • •Hi! I'm Josh and I mainly like to draw cute art, mostly centered around rodents or bunnies with the occasional Pokemon or Hamtaro art.
My current fave drawing media are oil pastels, chalk, and crayons in any order, but I like traditional art in general.
This stuff is pretty good too, and here's some of my stuff as well.
The three Fediverse platforms I mainly use for art posting are Pixelfed, Mastodon, and most recently Friendica,
