People are calling output from an inbred generative AI trained on a corpus that accidentally includes AI-generated inputs "Habsburg Art" or "Habsburg AI", and I approve.

I didn't expect this to be becoming a problem already.

@GNU Too My unscholarly observation and speculation is that I think what happens in a process like this, where you commodify a product and push the typical price below what a human laborer can live on, and only automated mass-production is possible, is that you lose a huge majority of skilled laborers, but the few that remain are able to charge a premium for their work, for those few rich that want something not mass-produced.

If you're ever in a room with a bunch of people, look at their shoes. In spite of shoes being a mass produced item, virtually everyone has different shoes on. Somebody paid a human being to design all those shoes, and even for the cheapest ones the design is constantly changing.

@sj_zero @GNU Too They paid as little as possible, and now they will pay even less to fewer humans, except for those designing thousand-dollar shoes.
