With the recent decline in the need for real art, many artists are quitting their jobs and opting for a more efficient way of making art.
Cathryn Burroughs, an art teacher at Sage Creek, expresses her need to eliminate handmade art.
“I think it’s dumb. I don’t think it’s going to fly because I think there will always be a need for humans to use their own hands and their own imaginations to create works of art that are authentic and powerful and meaningful, and AI can’t do that,” Burroughs said.
Ms. Burroughs absolutely adores AI and believes it will and should be the future of human culture. She would even prefer to give up her job in favor of the efficiency and creativity of AI art.
“No way! No way, Jose! No, I would never do that. I would prefer selling my soul,” Burroughs said.
Not only does the art teacher at Sage Creek love AI, but so do the students. Jack Spark, a student at Sage Creek and a self-proclaimed unprofessional pixel artist, comments on his desire for AI art to take over the world.
“AI art is just strictly better than human art because it’s way quicker to make and far less resource-intensive, and it lets humans do the jobs that they really should be doing that are more practical to society: Amazon sweatshop jobs,” Spark said.
Jack Spark’s “spark” for pixel art seems to sizzle out as the true dream, and his love for the mines is stronger than any human art. He rambles a lot.
“I’m waiting to work in the mines. As a child, I definitely yearned for the mines, and can finally truly live out that dream without any of this art getting in the way,” Spark said. “So we’re going to have this perfect lifeform that will hopefully fully eradicate humans, and once robots take over.”
As time goes on, the need for manmade creative outlets is running low. Overall, artists should quit their jobs in favor of artificial intelligence.
