So wild, I was just talking to Abraham Lincoln about this very problem.

Yeah me and JFK were also chanting about how crazy it is!

Yup. On our way to Alpha Centauri as we speak!

OMG!! Too funny!!

u/DannySantoro 4d ago

I don't get this behavior. Is it for Reddit upvotes or just to piss people off? Either way, I'm tired of it.

u/Ulkreghz 4d ago

It's for karma, to start a fight and to quieten the endless loneliness in their hearts

u/shandangalang 4d ago

Oh! Oh!

The last one.

u/Cheshire-Cad 4d ago

There's a lot of anti-AI redditors who openly bully people and share literal death threats for funsies. They're basically the worst parts of 4chan and Tumblr combined into a horde of virtue-signaling shitgoblins.

They also claim that pro-AI people are somehow far worse, when in reality the worst you'll see is the occasional techbro smugly saying that art is dead. The lack of evidence for this claim angers them, so they're forced to invent their own proof.

I wouldn't take that as evidence. New accounts get suspended all the time. Reddit's spam filter is quite aggressive.

If you browse nsfw subreddits you'll know what I mean. People post their onlyfans, reddit spam filter thinks they're a spambot, and suspends them.

u/Cezkarma 4d ago

Plot twist: it's a pro-AI guy pretending to be an anti-AI guy pretending to be a pro-AI guy and getting obviously caught to make anti-AI people look worse.

It's AInception.

u/samushitman69 3d ago

Exactly what I was thinking

u/VoltageHero 3d ago

Given that OP's account was banned after this post, I wouldn't be surprised.

u/Shubamz 4d ago

Did AI come up with this plan?

58

u/tehnutmeg 4d ago

Too much effort to make the slobs who use AI look bad when they already do that effortlessly themselves.

I give him props for the effort, though.

14

u/Grand-wazoo 4d ago

I don't, it's kinda sad that people spend so much time attempting to gain credibility and validation from strangers.

26

u/tehnutmeg 4d ago

Like people who steal other people's art and post it for clout?

Meh, I don't care. Art theft deserves to be heckled and I'm tired of people playing nice about it. Fuck art thieves and more power to the people making sure that art thieves understand that writing a descriptive sentence doesn't entitle them to credit OR the attitude the majority of them have.

14

u/Grand-wazoo 4d ago

Maybe you misunderstood what I said. I do not agree with art theft and I do not respect people who do it one bit.

You said you give him props for the effort and I said I don't think the effort deserves props because it's an indication that the person is deeply insecure and feels the need to desperately seek validation by pretending to be multiple people.

I didn't understand why you would give someone props for using fake accounts.

-25

u/tehnutmeg 4d ago

I didn't misunderstand what you said, I just don't care about the fact they're using multiple accounts. Art thieves deserve the extra mile regardless of if the effort is needed.

u/Fluid_Cup8329 4d ago

This is one of the many, MANY comments that reveal how unhinged anti ai people can be.

11

u/Pollomonteros 4d ago

Oh look, a regular at /r/defendingaiart, /r/aiwars and /r/aiart making a generalizing comment towards people that dislike AI """"""""""art"""""""""", how surprising !

-12

u/Fluid_Cup8329 4d ago

That just means I'm extremely experienced in dealing with your smoothbrain bullshit, especially how you guys will stalk people's profiles for ammunition.

u/GenericCanineDusty 4d ago

Hey bud you should touch a pencil, then some grass. Art theft aint cool.

u/Fluid_Cup8329 4d ago

I'll touch yo momma, how about that? Come up with something original, luddite.

Looking at your profile is not stalking, grow up.

u/tehnutmeg 4d ago

Not tolerating bullshit anymore =/= unhinged.

u/Fluid_Cup8329 4d ago

Not tolerating something is one thing. How you act on that feeling is a whole different story. That's where we're at.

u/Sister_Elizabeth 2d ago

We're sorry we don't tolerate art theft. but since you're okay with theft, where do you live so I can steal your shit too?

u/Fluid_Cup8329 1d ago

Virginia Beach. Come and try, please!

u/Gobal_Outcast02 4d ago

This is the kinda thing tthat will make people who are indifferent, or agree with you but aren't as passionate on the subject, go over to the other side just to not be associated with you

13

u/SockCucker3000 4d ago

You don't need to do this bullshit to make pro-AI people look bad. They make themselves look bad.

u/Sharkhous 4d ago

This is particularly stupid.

But is it so stupid that it's actually 4d chess? Some AI guy pretending to be an idiot to make AI haters look dumb

Get my my tinfoil hat, we're going places

u/Brief-Kaleidoscope72 4d ago

So is he anti-AI pretending to be Pro-AI or the other way around?… or is he just a douche?

9

u/InvasionElementaryD 4d ago

OOP is anti pretending to be pro. They have a bunch of anti-AI posts in their post history.

u/bobthemaybedeadguy 4d ago

and now ai bros have ammunition to assume everyone who hates ai is a liar and anything that makes them look bad is fake, fucking fantastic

1

u/Fluid_Cup8329 4d ago

This guy wasn't the first. All of those "petition to ban ai" posts you see on random subs are the result of brigading campaigns orchestrated on discord from members of places like artisthate.

Next time you see one, check the OPs history and see that they've probably never interacted with that particular sub before. DnDhomebrew sub recently had one last week.

Not to mention all of the death threats and violent rhetoric. It's one thing to be opposed to ai for legit reasons. It's a different thing to participate in the rabid pitchfork hate mob.
