Comment by deadbabe 7 days ago I have no examples. 3 comments deadbabe Reply sorcerer-mar 7 days ago Does that disprove your thesis that people cannot make great art (or become “true masters”) with commercial incentives?What does this imply for your broader thesis that nothing is lost if AI destroys commercial incentive for humans to master and develop art further? deadbabe 7 days ago No, because commercially motivated artists are inherently more well known than people who master an art but don’t need to promote it. Ultimately if one wants to master an art, money cannot be the incentive, it’s only a byproduct. sorcerer-mar 6 days ago Ah, I see. So just running with this theory on an article of faith, with literally zero evidence. Nice!Art: The one thing in the whole world where incentives don't matter. The stuff of fortune cookies.
