AI art as a whole has just become the new clipart. The fact that it’s effortless to produce just means that it has no real artistic value, and by using it all you’re signifying to people is that you’re too cheap to pay someone to create real art.

It’s quickly become the modern day equivalent of Comic Sans, WordArt, and the default clipart illustrations included in Word ‘98.

I dunno about you... but it boggles my mind how many others can't see it.

Perhaps most people are absolutely devoid of any taste of what makes art? I dont know.

Techbros, largely, never had any taste to begin with. They just also don't have the skills/will to make any art, so they could hide their lack of taste for a long time.

That said, there are still people with exceptional aesthetic sensibilities in the tech field, obviously. They're just largely not in this space.
