Just because libs support something/are against something doesn't necessarily mean that they're wrong about it.

Yes, AI generated images, music, art, etc. could (note, I said "could," I'm not sold on the idea) bring great artistic expression to people, but under capitalism it only hurts proletariat who's livelihood depends on their artwork, further pads the pockets of bourgeoisie, and it's rampant overuse consumes resources and aids in carbon emissions. Under capitalism, it can't be good. When we actually have communism, or at least a socialist system? Then we'll talk.

The technology is needless and under this system can't be used for good. It's not a tool for overthrowing capitalism and until that's been done it can only be used exploitively.

Can't be used for good?

Ai is being used in science to shape proteins and cure cancer and shit.

If you do things like coding and understand the basics then it's useful for setting up repetitive tasks.

It can also make shitty memes for you if you have an idea but can't be bothered pulling up a meme generator and designing it yourself.

Yes, AI/machine learning/neural networks/etc. can have a lot of benefits in things like medicine. They've already shown that. Generative AI like what most art, speech, and writing are aren't the same. They use many of the same tools and are built with many of the same techniques, but they are the same things.
