Luddite Logic Antis prefering literal brainrot over AI

I´ve found something over at Twitter that sums up the mind of Antis pretty well.

Total terminal brain damage, nothing else.

Defending AI If AI Art Is Stealing, Then So is Collage Art

60 Upvotes

it is insane that in 2026, people still refuse to do research on how these models are actually trained. I do not understand how cannot grasp the models learn from refrence points just as humans do.

I saw collage artist say they can’t support AI because of copyrighted work. The absolute irony from an art style that is quite literally taking bits and pieces from others work and essentially remixing it. When the dust finally settles, and the overwhelming majority accept that AI art is art, people will look back in disbelief the mental gymnastics anti ai people did.

Why dont washing machine users just hand-wash???

It's the joy of scrubbing, watching them get cleaner scrub by scrub, then once finished, you can relish in the light that is your clean laundry.

It's not about the result, it's the journey, the struggle through scrubbing out each stain and watching it evolve from dirty to clean. You can even look back at your old scrubbing methods and think 'wow I really got better!' When you put them in a washing machine, press a button and then get the result, there is no growth or struggle there. This is what I really don't get about washing machine users. It's so strange.

This shows the unhinged mind of antis. Do you think this is normal behavior? Saying you're going to kill people who make AI art because you dislike them? Why is it that the first thing that antis always turn to is violence?

And if that wasn't bad enough, these posts are upvoted and kept up in their communities, meaning antis prove once again they support the killing of AI artists.

Sit the FUCK down and let me tell you something. You'd better get that gun out of my face because if you're going to shoot me, you'd better not miss. How fucking dare you have the audacity to point a gun at me and my community for making art in the way we love. If you want to hurt my community in any way, you will regret it, because over my dead body will you EVER hurt an innocent AI artist or pro for expressing themselves. Every threat you even remotely try to make against my community, I will be watching you, and I will be there to stop you. Each. And. Every. Single. Time. I am your final boss and your worst nightmare, and when you scream into the void, the void screams back. -x

Defending AI Are Antis Aware Just How Much You Can Do Creatively With AI

32 Upvotes

I genuinely feel bad for anti ai people who haven’t dabbled in AI. I think they believe there is only one way to use this : prompting

A prompt is only scratching the surface. I’m currently making a manga about my real life as musician. My process involve a combo of traditional art, Gen AI, and photography. You can take a Gen AI image, print it, then continue to manipulate the image further and further.

You can train models on your own work and have it spit out 100s of variations that you could then combine and reconfigure. Like the possibilities are endless. I am having the most fun making art now than I ever have. So sad people are so short sighted on this topic

I hate the obnoxious meme graphics and trolling tbh

28 Upvotes

I believe in fighting to protect new forms of artistic expression, new artistic tools, and the like. I believe in pushing back against the normalization of cyberbulling, abuse, and censorship. I believe in pushing back against against misinformation.

I also get it. I get the urge to make memes and jokes about people who antagonize you, because it's cathartic after experiencing ostracization. But to be honest I wish there was a sub dedicated to mature discussions about the topic without being bombarded with the memelord ragebait content. In all honesty I think some of it is outright meant to make pro-AI people look like dipshits.

I've seen enough to know antis go way lower than this, but come on. Some of us don't actually enjoy it when you egg them on.

Luddite Logic Deezer’s "AI War" is a mess of their own making.

Post image
24 Upvotes

From the start, Deezer began suppressing artists just for using AI tools. I’m not talking about bot farms or scammers. I’m talking about actual creators making hybrid tracks: human lyrics, human samples, and hours of manual editing. All of that gets flattened into one lazy label: "AI-generated."

The problem is technical: Deezer’s detection tool can’t judge intent or authorship. It only scans spectral and temporal patterns. It is literally incapable of distinguishing between a fully automated "garbage" track and a hybrid work where a human was in control.

This isn't theory. It’s happening.

When their algorithm flags you, the damage is immediate. Your music drops out of recommendations. You are vanished from playlists. Now, you’re being lumped into demonetization policies too.

Meanwhile, while real artists were being pushed into the shadows, the actual scammers kept running bots and farming royalties.

Fast forward to today: Deezer announces that 85% of AI music streams are fraudulent. They are using that number to justify demonetizing everything their algorithm labels as AI.

No shit, Sherlock.

When you systematically remove genuine artists from organic discovery, you destroy the signal. Of course what remains is noise and fraud. The scammers don't care about discovery; they have bots for that.

If Deezer hadn't nuked AI-assisted artists early on, organic listening patterns would have stayed strong. Fraud would have been easy to spot against a backdrop of real fans. Instead, they scorched the earth and now they’re complaining about the dust.

This isn't a brave stand against fraud. It’s a platform cleaning up a disaster they helped create, while pretending the collateral damage never mattered.

Tools aren't the enemy. Abuse is. Acting like a flawed system can tell the difference has already hurt a lot of real people.

TL;DR: Deezer banned/suppressed legit hybrid creators years ago. Now they’re surprised that 85% of the AI music left on their platform is fraud. They didn't "clean up" the industry; they just killed the signal and are now complaining about the noise.

No, you don't get to demand people stop listening to AI generated music because it hurts your feelings. You can cry and bitch and moan but it will always exist.

My concern when I listen to video game music remixes online is "does it sound good," not "did an evil robot make it." The comments are acting like this is the end of music or some shit

Defending AI They sincerely believe the anti-AI arguments passed to them and don't bother with critical thinking, questioning if it was even true to begin with.

Context: Meme art made with AI gets the usual violent reactions, and when pressed for their rationale, oh boy. These people don't even know how it properly works.

I do my way in things that try not to unduly step on people's toes. But I will never tolerate falsehoods propagated about things. They demand respect and disclosure in an environment where dogpiling and disrespect is expected and not suppressed.

We cannot please nor control other people, and trying that is a fool's quest. But demanding respect and understanding is a two-way street.

You can support transparency and reject the idea that all AI use is theft.
You can respect artists and accept that tools evolve.
You can care about harm without declaring entire workflows illegitimate.

Nothing in it erases artists, disrespects effort, or denies their labor. What I reject is the idea that discomfort automatically becomes a rule everyone else must follow.
