    I mean, these are the commonly-heard and/or understood things. Even autistic people are still trying to get together and figure out what they are statistically. It really is hard when the word “autism” is used as a euphemism for general intellectual disabilities, or when tons of people keep claiming they have it only so they can feel special.

    People like me have all these symptoms and more. Trichotillomania is a life-ruiner for me, and I know a lot of other autistic people deal with that and other sensory issues too; but people just don’t know about those symptoms yet.










  • You almost had a good argument until you started trying to tell us that it’s not just a parrot. It absolutely is a parrot. In order to have creativity, it needs to have knowledge. Not sapience, not consciousness, not even “intelligence” as we know it— just knowledge. But it doesn’t know anything. If it did, it wouldn’t put 7 fingers on a damn character. It doesn’t know that it’s looking at and creating fingers, they’re just fucking pixels to it. It saw pixel patterns, it created pixel patterns. It doesn’t know context to know when the patterns don’t add up. You have to understand this.

    So in the end, it turns out that if you draw something unique and purposeful, with unique context and meaning— and that is preeeetty easy— then you’ll still have a drawing job. If you’re drawing the same thing everyone else already did a million times, AI may be able to do that. If it can figure out how to not add 7 fingers and three feet.
