I get angry about AI 'art', because I feel that in the last few years ART SUSTAINED US, as we were literally trapped at home and needed a release. We've dismissed how precious that is, just so we can make a dumb, meaningless image by typing words into a machine.

Imagine going through those years without art made by humans? Without comfort movies? Without tv shows like Better Call Saul or Succession? Without songs that you played on repeat because they made you feel better? Without videogames you could get lost in for a little while?

All of these things were made by artists channelling their own lived-in, authentic human experience. That is something that AI will never be capable of. It will never break your heart and will never give you a better understanding of what it is to be alive.

Ireland's poet president, sitting at his wildy messy desk, surrounded by books, art, memorabilia, and a single tiny monitor which i bet is never turned on. 💚
The Irish president's desk is a thing of beauty. And he tidies it for no man.

One of the UK's most significant documentary photography institutions, that's been around for 45yrs, is closing this month due to critical funding cuts. Help prevent that from happening.

You'll never see AI within the pages of our magazine. Ever.

AI is going to pollute photography to a point where we won't know if an image is by the original photographer. Eg: when there are thousands of convincing Vivian Maier prompt images mixed in with her real images. Search engines wont distinguish. Curation hubs won't do research.

Expect more of this.
New York Mag used AI to illustrate their latest newsletter. Possibly took a job away from an artist / photographer.

For my own well-being, I now close twitter as soon as something in my feed annoys or pisses me off. Remarkably effective at improving my mood.
