It's a rhetorical example. Suppose you need to create an avatar of your character. Why does it follow that it's not beneficial to have an AI help generate the avatar? You're responding to the specific example, not the general argument. Unless your counter is that whatever humanity is doing that AI is helping is probably stupid and shouldn't be done anyway. | |||||||||||||||||

> Unless your counter is that whatever humanity is doing that AI is helping is probably stupid and shouldn't be done anyway. No, my counter is that whatever generative AI is doing is worth doing by humans but not worth doing by machines. As the joke comic says: We thought technology was going to automate running errands so that we had time to make art, but instead it automates making art while we all have to be gig workers running errands. | |||||||||||||||||

No one needs an avatar. You can draw a stick figure or take a selfie or whatever. This is all so silly and trivial. | |||||||||||||||||
