Created an image version of my recently penned anti-AI poem "AI Trolls" using an altered version of my artwork "Angry Man".

I've gotten a lot of traction out of this art.

AI Trolls

By Richard H. Fay

Jealous of creative brains and inventive minds,
Resentful of developed virtuosities,
Untalented losers demean those with talent.
Envious of creatives with enduring souls,
Indolent morons insult the truly gifted;
Trolling louts bombard genuine artists with hate.

Re-sharing four more of my anti-AI poems (the first two are also very pro-artist):
"Keeping the Flame Alive",
"Frustrate, Aggravate, Create, Propagate!",
"AI Cultists",
and "Deluxe Edition AI".

Keeping the Flame Alive

By Richard H. Fay

Tech bro oligarchs wage their war 
To dehumanize modern society,
But undaunted human artists 
Continue to fight pencil-and-pen,
Keeping culture's heartbeat drumming
Loud-and-clear.

AI bro sycophants push their slop
To debase contemporary culture,
But undeterred human artists
Continue to generate genuine gems
Keeping culture's creative being 
Alive and well.

AI bots and trolls launch their attacks 
To devalue traditionally-made art,
But stalwart human artists
Continue to create hand-made works
Keeping culture's spirit burning
Clear-and-bright.
Frustrate, Aggravate, Create, Propagate!

By Richard H. Fay

Frustrate the wannabe demolishers
Of arts and culture.
Aggravate the pitiful producers
Of slop and garbage.
Irritate the unabashed despoilers
Of skill and talent.
Generate human-made masterpieces
Of words and pictures.
Create inspirational masterworks
Of heart and spirit.
Propagate truly organic creations
Of soul and feeling.
Infuriate the vulgar propagandists 
Of machine-made art!

Flip AI bros and bots the virtual bird —
Make art!

AI Cultists

By Richard H. Fay

Fawning over silicon idols,
Followers of the Cult of AI — 
Forswear empathy and amity,
Forsake the fellowship of mankind,
Foment fractiousness and bitterness,
Favor machines over mere mortals,
Fall for false promises of fake gods,
Forget what it means to be human.
Deluxe Edition AI

By Richard H. Fay

Step right up, get your deluxe edition AI right here!
You may abandon friends and family, have no fear!
Discard human relations, find your electronic mate.
Ignore cries of damage done, it’s merely jealous hate!
Spin the wheel, gamble on generating a fun community!
(Never mind the voices of those exploited with impunity.)
Concern yourself not with arising absurdities, if you can. 
Trust us, those inherent errors are all part of the plan. 
Leave all worries behind, enjoy our virtual realm!
Have no qualms that a greedy broligarch mans the helm
Steering society into oblivion as the real world burns — 
He cares not, so long as his Armageddon machine churns.

Re-sharing four of my recently (or fairly recently) penned anti-AI poems:
"The New Slot Machine",
"Green-Eyed AI Bros",
"Art as an Act of Defiance",
and "The Jejuneness of AI Art".
#poems #poetry #antiai #againstai

The New Slot Machine

By Richard H. Fay

Come one, come all!
Take your chances
With our image-generating 
Algorithm-driven
Slot machine!
Feed in those tokens,
Type in those prompts,
Hope for the best of luck
Against coded randomness.
Ride that dopamine loop
Wishing to grab a few
Variable rewards.
Green-Eyed AI Bros

By Richard H. Fay

Acting jealous of genuine creatives,
Treating creators in a callous fashion, 
Failing to respect the concept of consent,
Scraping artists' works out of sheer spite,
Prompting slop-producing AI systems,
Glutting the world with shabby garbage,
AI bros revel in their green-eyed resentment.

Committing invidious acts of incivility,
Exhibiting scorn toward the exploited,
Spreading hellacious hostility and hate,
Fomenting dire disquietude and distress,
Feeding abhorrent algorithmic monstrosities
Producing sundry problematic grotesqueries 
AI bros take joy in their jaundiced villainy.

Coveting the able craftsmanship of adepts,
Resenting those with imaginative ideation, 
Hoping to propagate defeat and despair,
Dreaming of a technologically-driven Rapture,
Abetting the degradation of human culture,
Propelling society deeper into the abyss,
AI bros delight in their envious evil.
Art as an Act of Defiance

By Richard H. Fay

In defiance of the diabolical tech bros
Devilishly wishing to dehumanize art,
Human creatives keep creating works
With their own hands, their own minds.

In opposition to machine-made muck,
Deficient dross devoid of true emotions,
Human creators produce precious gems
With multiple facets of genuine feelings.

In rebellion against perverse propaganda,
Insistent calls to give in and go high-tech,
Human artists retain the human in art,
With honor toward both future and past.
The Jejuneness of AI Art

By Richard H. Fay

Electronic minds lacking artistic souls,
Silicon intellects bereft true imaginations,
Produce jejune pastiches of human art.
Artificial brains lacking sparks of genius,
Algorithmic blenders of cultural creations
Generate dull slop devoid of deeper meaning.

I don’t think you’ll like living in a world without empathy or connection, but what do I know. Maybe creating dystopias has gone from literary art to performance art.

Hm. I'm #againstAI but this is a good use of it.
