It's not a new means of production, it's old as fuck. They just made a bigger one. The fuck is chat gpt or AI art going to do for communism? Automating creativity and killing the creative part is only interesting as a bad thing from a left perspective. It's dismissed because it's dismissals, there's no new technology here, it's a souped up chatbot that's been marketed like something else.
As far as machines being conscious, we are so far away from that as something to even consider. They aren't and can't spontaneously gain free will. It's inputs and outputs based on pre determined programming. Computers literally cannot to anything non deterministic, there is no ghost in the machine, the machine is just really complex and you don't understand it entirely. If we get to the point where a robot could be seen as sentient we have fucking Star Trek TNG. They did the discussion and solved that shit.

I think AI art could be great but chatGPT as a concept of something that "knows everything" is very moronic
AI art has the potential to let random schmucks make their own cartoons if they input just a little bit of work. However, this will probably require a license fee or something so you're probably right
Personally I would love to see well-made cartoons about Indonesian mythology and stuff like that, which will never ever be made in the west (or Indonesia until it becomes as rich as China at least) so AI art is the best chance at that
Okay, but the only reason that ai art could help that is because Indonesian mythology doesn't have the marketability for a budget and real artists because capitalism. It doesn't subvert the commodification of art.
Yeah, and as long as we're living in that capitalistic hellworld, AI art existing allows those stories to be told instead of the same old euromedieval-hobbit-meadow thing that's the basis of every fantasy movie and game that came out for the last 60 years
Just cause a computer can make it doesn't mean anyone will see it.
A lot of Indonesian people, and other people (like me) who are interested in other cultures would see it. It would at the very least begin the process of allowing cultural diversity to even reach the rest of the world
As it stands now, poor people in poor countries don't even have the funds/leisure time to start their own animations (or other similar hobbies). AI art solves that
The reason western art/videogames/cartoons are so popular is not because the culture is inherently more watchable, but because only westerners (and Japanese) ever had the capital to fund their own animation studios. People watch media because it's well-made, or because it's already popular and other people are talking about it. AI art can't fix the latter, but it can fix the former.

Just cause a computer can make it doesn't mean anyone will see it. That's where the capitalism comes in.
