Innumerable piss breaks at the comfort of your home because AI will take your job.

Hi Epic Games, you won’t be hearing from me again. I hope your games don’t sell.

Bro, wtf is this garbage!!?? 😂😂

Someone builds something. Their idea, their format, their way of presenting it, years of figuring out what works while nobody was paying attention. Then some anonymous account reuploads it, or spits out something close enough with AI, and uses it to sell dropshipping garbage. If you saw the copy first on TikTok or Instagram you’d have no way of knowing. I could find dozens of these, and a lot of them are way worse than this one.

Reuploading someone's video was already illegal, that part isn’t new. What’s new is the cost. Copying used to take effort. Now cloning someone’s look, voice or format takes minutes, and the person who actually built it gets nothing. Not money, not credit, not even a mention.

People say "justprotect your work.” With what? Glaze and Nightshade were the best tools artists had, and researchers have already published a method that detects Nightshade almost every time in their tests. I get that this is how security research works, and maybe it leads to better tools eventually. But think about what that means right now: some illustrator with a Patreon is in an arms race against companies with entire research teams and more money than God. That’s not a fight. That’s a formality.

The legal side isn't any better. Remember Bitter Sweet Symphony? The Verve licensed a sample, the company that owned the catalog said they used too much, and Richard Ashcroft lost the royalties to his own biggest song for 22 years. He only got them back in 2019 because Jagger and Richards felt like giving them back. That’s what copyright looks like when you can’t afford the fight. It protects whoever owns the catalog and has the lawyers. It always has.

So when an AI company settles for a big number and moves on, don’t tell me the system worked. Settlements go to whoever had the resources to sue. Most artists can’t file a lawsuit. They can’t pay a lawyer. They just watch their stuff show up somewhere else with someone else’s name on it, and then they keep going, or they quit.

And that's the part that actually scares me. Not one artist getting ripped off. A whole generation of kids looking at this and deciding it’s not worth even trying, because anything good they make will just get scraped and resold before they’ve paid rent with it once.

I don't want a law that makes styles or ideas ownable. That would end up hurting artists too. What I want is pretty basic, consent before your work goes into training dataactual compensation when it does a way to report copies and impersonation that doesn’t need a lawyer or six weeks of aplatform ignoring you.

That's it. That's not nti-technology. It’s asking that the people whose work made all of this possible stop being the only ones who don't get paid.

Edit: The post is only 24 minutes old and yet like 5 people are already being like those people I mentioned and one even said "I'm OnE oF tHeM."

This happened in a post about OP telling about his parents who told they overreacted due to the fact that OP respectfully asked the owner about whether the menu is AI or not and respectfully told the parents that they were not eating there.

If OP was no longer a teenager, then they should have full authority for such decisions IMO as a teen. Their stepdad even called them a crybaby which is disgusting. OP is probably old enough to make such decisions, OP never told the parents not to eat there either. Just expressed themselves.

The worst part is: there are almost 25 people in a post with not even 240 upvotes! The post just had 120 comments which means 17–21% of the commentors were defending AI in a subreddit "r/AntiAI". The commentors were **(a)** defending the parents **(b)** Saying that "This is proof that your stupid anti AI beliefs don't work outside your stupid bubble".

This is amplified by insufficient moderators in the subreddit. Not enough for hundreds of thousands of people. There are subreddits with less than 500 people with more active mods. Few of the mods here are not even active and don't use reddit anymore. A fellow redditor DMed the Mod Team about becoming a mod and got no response after weeks!

CEO got this kick for expanding our product horizons over the last few years. It’s been going pretty well. He recently hired some yes-man tech bro. He literally said “what’s up broski” this morning to me. I don’t know the details exactly, but we now have access to manufacture hardware in-house that could allow us to no longer need to purchase from a “competitor.”

He handed me AI CAD drawings that are physically impossible to create. Parts that don’t exist. The side view and front view of the part are completely incompatible.

You’d need a machinist capable of machining parts in 4D to achieve even a prototype.

Does anyone know a fab shop with a tesseract?

Edit: he makes like 3x what I do

I have been playing games for past 26 years and it blows my mind how people can have such a bad take. In past weeks Ive seen crazy messages on many subreddits and it blows my mind what kind of opinion people have.

1."AI is incredible! Now we can all make our games!"
Well no. You cant. Just because you have a shortcut now doesnt mean you will actually create something playable. 99% of those AI games are copies of something that already exists. Most people just dont have the creativity to create even when AI gives them the option.

2."Its good that big companies are using AI now. We will get games faster"
Have you seen the performance of any kind of software since vibe coding came to scene? Gosh even windows updates are having rollbacks often because its destroying hardware when its not properly written and tested. Every app went downhill in quality since like 2023.

3."Thanks to AI we can play games in browsers so they cant limit us on consoles anymore!"
What happened to copyright? Since when is it okay to just take product and publish it into public without punishment? Why theres no legal action against it? It blows my mind that not so long ago there were police raids against people who distributed illegal copies of movies. Those people ended up in jail and now we can just post games and pretend its not straight up copy. Also do people realize behind every game there are employees who are making money for families out of it? Its not just big company getting money. Its also thousands and thousands of people who might lose their income, their house, their secured life because we decided public piracy is okay now. Dont get me wrong I know piracy was always a thing but it was never public like that.

1. "Reverse engineering is incredible! Now those AAA studios cant profit on us that much and indie scene will grow"
   This is honestly the worst take of them all. Lets be honest here. The only reason why we actually have amazing games today is because big studios throw big money into production. Jimmy in basement wouldnt be able to create games of that scale and quality and AI will not help him with that. If we start to ignore copyright laws and we try to reverse engineer every product the result will be simple. Every big company will either stop making good products when its not profitable or they will sell access to cloud where they protect their files. We will not download anything anymore. Our computers will become remote machines that pay for access to different storages. And what will happen with Indie scene? They will not be able to afford such services for their products so their products will actually get stolen day one.

Honestly it hurts me to see that this might be the end of gaming industry. I feel like everyone wants everything these days but they dont even know what they are asking for. Younger generations tend to search for shortcuts in every aspect of life and sadly Im worried the golden era of creativity is gone. At some point there either needs to be some heavy regulation on products to not overflood market with absolute nonsense or simply the start of new online world cleansed out of this mess we created.

Total investment in data centers and related artificial-intelligence infrastructure is projected to total $10.3 trillion from 2025 to 2032 ( https://www.wsj.com/economy/the-ai-build-out-is-becoming-the-biggest-economic-bet-in-u-s-history-c60716dd )

2019 Green New Deal includes a proposal to move 100 percent of U.S. electricity production to renewable sources would require at least $5.7 trillion of investment in renewable energy and storage. ( https://www.americanactionforum.org/research/what-it-costs-go-100-percent-renewable/ )

They act like children who go lalallllalalalalalalalallaalla im not listening every time an actual artist calls them out.For context for those who remember a while ago the anti drew the first image then ai bros put it through ai and i still see ai bros do this.

If you are okay with all these vibe coded “mods”, decompilations, one game in another, etc stuff then you were never anti ai.

So, I went out to eat with my family, they suggested a new place that opened up nearby and we went to try it, as I was reading the menu I noticed ai images of food and it really didnt sit right with me so I just straight up asked if it was ai to the cashier who also happened to be the owner, she said yes and I just said okay, mom asked me what I wanted and I just told her I didnt really want anything since I dont agree with ai usage on businesses, they tried to force me but I didnt end up ordering, we went to sit and my step dad called me a clown and a cry baby throwing a tantrum, I got pretty mad so I just told mom I was going to go nearby and find somewhere to eat with my own money, found a fish taco stand with the shittiest pictures taken with a phone on the menu, but at least not ai, ate some of the fish tacos and they were peak, then I returned and my step dad kept calling me a crybaby, all the way home and mom agreed, I just tried my best to ignore them, that's why I ask, did I over react, was I being a crybaby? Im sorry if this post has a mistake or something, english is not my first language. Thanks in advance for any opinions and comments<3

(Also taco I ate is the third pic)

On a post about someone modding AI NPCs into a 20+ year old video game. AI users literally can't comprehend doing something without it.

It's been like, three years since its been this mainstream, how tf is everyone so dependant on it already??
