Well, I support the police since it is wrong to eat garbage in public. π

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Wait until this dude finds out about Toy Story, etc.
Actually they were arrested for potentially hurting a professional fulltime investor's feelings.
They're guilty of conspiracy against shareholder value. Seeing such heinous crimes makes me wish burning at the stake was still a valid form of punishment.
He was intaking it for training data! Surely an AI artist can appreciate the deep importance of that?
I thought this was America!? I can't enjoy a fine succulent AI meal?
Gentlemen, this is Fine Arts manifest!
GET YOUR HAND OFF MY PENCIL! This is the bloke who got me on the pencil.
I see you know your Analytical Review well.
Alaska Art Alumni Arrested for Absorbing Another Adherent AI Appeared Art in Argument*
Fixed it, it was so close!!
Princess Carolyn, is that you?

That's what I thought at first
The caption is wrong. Nick Dwyer isn't an artist. He's a clank-fucker.
Also β¦ doesn't he just look exactly like you'd expect a clank-fucker saying "NO REALLY, THIS IS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!" to look? Empty, soulless eyes. A way too serious expression for someone who typed "ANIME GIRL BIG BEWBS" and called the output art.
must have tasted like shit
It was obviously a statement about how large image models gobble up other people's art and spit it back out.
It's a statement about how society literally consumes slop
Nah, it definitely goes all the way through and comes out the other end.
he got arrested but he got an "A-" for the performance piece
now that is what I call art
eating
WAT
He didn't eat the photos, just chewed them and spat them out. Smh. https://nypost.com/2026/01/17/us-news/student-eats-ai-artwork-in-wild-protest-at-alaska-university/
In a way, implying the bulimic nature of AI is a more powerful statement than consuming it for sustenance.
True perfomance art.
You gotta watch those macros brah, you can taste the crimes against humanity but always spit them out

Seems these days, the news articles with the word "Protest" and an American place name in the headline, all gravitate towards the same thing.
Hey. We have more than protesting we can do. We can go to the grocery store and cry. We can scroll through social media feeds filled with Nazi propaganda. We can go into medical debt because we twisted our ankle at work. We can gamble on stock. We can gamble on sports. We can gamble on whether or not a streamer wear shorts. Really, most of what we can do is gamble and hope we win enough to get the fuck out of here.
America. It's all going to shit and we're apparently taking you all with us.
People protest lots of different things across the political spectrum.
AI
Trump
Musk
Datacenters
Abortion
Transexuals
Fossil Fuels
Windmills
And I bet to some degree, it's different sides of the same coin we're protesting here.
I personally have nothing in common with dumbasses who protest against transexuals and windmills. I side squarely with the trans and the windmills.
Don Quixote has entered the chat
Wait. I'm unaware of windmills. What are they protesting?
Also, where do windmills still exist?
The new giant windmills that generate electricity. Mostly theyβre protested by people who donβt want to see them, or possibly hear them (Iβm not sure that they are actually loud enough to be louder than whatever wind is blowing them unless youβre right next to them), or people upset about the number of birds they kill (although most of the people Iβve seen complaining about the bird deaths seem to be supporters of fossil fuels so their sincerity seems a bit dubious).
The generate power, and people protest them because they're worried about marine life as well as magats because of a conspiracy that they kill large birds. One random example was in Bedford, New England last year.

Oh well. I'll listen to them if they simultaneously show up at the protests against all the subsidies that go towards big oil, all the crude oil that leaks into the ocean, nuclear power plant nextdoors etc.
For Real, the Bilgewater from transporting oil alone is horrible for marine life.
I think most people don't have a clue about energy and all the things that come along with it. It's mostly some stupid culture war. I mean sure an off-shore windfarm doesn't come without a toll on the environment when constructing it. It's just questionable whether any alternative is better than that. And having a windmill nextdoors... Well, just visit the Dutch people or northern Germany and make up your mind. I've been camping next to one and it's okay-ish. Way better than where I live which is a city next to a city with an airport. That's some proper noise nuisance. With the windmills the only really annoying thing is if you're sitting in the shades of the rotors. But there's regulations how they can't be built close to other buildings.
Should I post this in "Eat AI"?
Well, he certainly didn't fuck it, or is "eat" a euphemism here?
He put them in his mouth and chewed on them. So not entirely euphemistic.
