      the printing press decreased the speed of publication by a larger margin (months to hours for a big book like the bible) and aguably kicked off a century of incredibly bloody warfare with luther and then the counter reformation.

      I dont see how being able to get a decent image of Marx with tits from a few mins of generating images is so much more dangerous.

          That was exactly the point the church made against the printing press, without needing scribes anyone could come up with whatever foul heresy they liked and publish it for distribution.

          The chief difference between now and then is what we consider unpermissable. Otherwise the agrument is the same, we cannot trust people to publish whatever they like or terrible things will happen.

      It’s really not a problem. We have both open source and proprietary solutions for generative AI. If you have the hardware for it, you can generate images locally for free. If you don’t, just use one of the many available services.

      It’s literally giving the power of expression to almost everyone, including artists.

      Also let’s not talk about jobs/money. Technology replacing jobs isn’t something new and that’s what humanity should strive toward.
