   A few days ago @ward tooted about how it's somehow "AI art", but if it's human-made, inexplicably it's just "content":

   His toot has been living rent-free in my head ever since.

   I had ranted a few times before how "content" is a corporate-y way to devalue art. How "user-generated content" is a term designed to make it easier to deny the significance (not just monetary) of the amazing stuff people create online.

   Contrasting this with "AI art" is jarring, and spot-on. 👀

     "It's art only if it was auto-generated by a stochastic black box controlled by a multi billion dollar corporation; otherwise it's just sparkling content." 🧐

     @rysiek @ward capitalism corrupts language like this.

     To the point of some languages (not only Polish) missing "sustainability", only having "a balanced growth". Because you cannot not grow.
