Raw LLM Responses

"And an AI can't be the best version of me" - But that's one of the major issues about the AI controversy imo: Its technology is *aiming* for a certain artist's distinguishable art style as good as possible, to ultimately copy them for commercial or showcasing purposes and make the original artist "obsolete", hence the replacement fear which on top of that feels more like an identity theft to me more and more. The thing about the pressure to constantly being forced to "adapt" is that AI will quickly turn into something, where "being fast" and "trying to adapt" won't be enough to be a serious competitor against this technology and its fast-paced productivity - and I'm being honest here, people used to tell me "to adapt" my entire life while I tried to find my way to establish myself somewhere in all the different job markets and in my eyes it led me to nowhere, especially since I have a handicap and was always judged for it. I'm glad that I eventually listened to an art senpai who advised me to try out a freelance art career for once since I always ended up returning to my passion of drawing every time when I felt so lost after a long period of a fruitless job. And it was the best decision I have done in my life, especially mentally wise since for the first time, my appearance, origin and especially my handicap don't matter (for clients) to fulfill my job. I became a freelance artist for different reasons, and one of them was, to escape the gross consumer-driven job world which primarily focus on "just to produce as fast as possible", where it was all about quantity. I think, apart from the whole hostility and arrogance emanated by a lot of AI enthusiasts towards us artists, a big reason for my intuitive opposition towards the whole "AI trend" is also because of the same aspects of the ruthless job markets I initially turned my back on - because of its very consumer-driven nature that mainly exists to serve as a maximizing fast and cheap quantity production chain for mass-consumption (+ the mentioned identity theft aspect).
