Just because you didn't use a naughty word, doesn't make you correct.
You clearly have no respect for the creative, as shown by your 'skill issue' and 'get a real job' comments.
If you think you're on a moral high ground because you're pretending to engage in a grownup converstion, then, once again, gfy.
I do art myself. As I said I make videogames, which are considered art. And, by the way, my games are shitty, I do also have skill issue on that. And the fact that I like generative LLMs is because I have a big skill issue painting.
But that does not takes away the idea that not everyone can or should make money for all forms of art. And the believe that art is something that should probably not always be part of the money machine.
It's true that I value jobs that cover the firsts stages of the Maxwell hierarchy of need better than the jobs which cover higher stages (or the jobs that do not cover any stage or are detrimental for that matter)
I do stand for that position of that everyone should do the "jobs that no one wants to do" and the things that people enjoy doing should maybe be left out of the job market. And just be made and shared for the love of it.
I am strongly against the monetization of everything. I think is bad for personal mental health, and bad for society's health.
