Why? Because my drawing skills suck. My computer skills, on the other hand, are excellent. And generating it is “free” (not counting stuff like 10 minutes of electricity supply). I’m not gonna pay someone to vaguely understand what I mean, waiting for who-knows-how-long until they finish it and then reiterating for who-knows-how-long again. Here I generated like 40 pictures until I was satisfied with how they looked. I spent like 10 minutes on it and am happy with the result. At the same time, a Disney-looking Nadja is not so important to me that I would actually pay someone to paint it. I literally did it only for this picture.
Typing a sentence into a search bar is not a computer skill.
No, AI is not free. They charge minimum $10 for a few credits to run an algorithm you have to run multiple times, burning through all of your credits, for a final result that looks shitty and can’t be customizable.
Human artists actually are cheaper. You’re wasting more money on the AI that you could have saved just having a human paint it for you.
Your actual motivation for using AI is to avoid other human beings. For all of your misanthropy, you certainly have no problem letting the most evil humans of all, people who run tech companies, exploit your dislike of others for their benefit, feeding the very beast you hate.

Well, I’m not typing a sentence into a search bar.
I’m not paying anyone, I run my models locally on my computer, the final result doesn’t look shitty and is extremely customizable. I already had a graphics card capable of generating AI for two reasons: I need a top quality laptop for my work (and those usually come with a good graphics card) and I like playing PC games.
As I’ve clearly demonstrated in point 2., humans are not cheaper.
Most of AI is open source and I’m running open source models. Furthermore, you’re really not making a good case for not avoiding humans, you know? Your entire negativity and shit takes on stuff you don’t understand at all were a pointless interaction that made my way a tiny bit shittier than it would have been otherwise.

So no, this is an entirely different thing.

If you don’t have the slightest clue of what you’re talking about, you can’t afford a strong opinion like that to be honest.
Everyone that spent 10 minutes on AI knows you’re talking bs
Calls AI industry abusive and harmful.
Demands to instead use artists because they are cheap and calls them assholes.
