If that were true, there would be no reason for advanced tools like ComfyUI to exist.

I paint digitally and with acrylic and oil, which isn’t that different from the methods Da Vinci would have utilized. If you wanted to paint the Mona Lisa in photoshop the expertise required is the same minus only color mixing and physical preparation and finishing.

So, you’re really saying the expertise required is not the same, then?

Regardless of method, saying “paint this picture for me” isn’t making art. The claim is on its face absurd.

Who is claiming that? Not me. Anyone who has used a generative AI tool for more than 10 seconds knows this isn’t true.

If I go to the hospital and say “heal this person” am I now a doctor?

This is a bad analogy. If in some far off future we had some magical “auto-doc” device that could heal injuries, etc., but still required someone with sufficient knowledge to operate the device, I would call them a doctor, or perhaps a medical engineer. Yes.

Weird how all it takes to turn an ostensible leftist into a sneering lib condescending to an entire classification of worker is to insult their little toy.

What did you mean by this? The only one sneering and condescending here is you lol.

Somehow I doubt da Vinci and a modern digital artist toiling away in Photoshop would be able to agree on the definition of, or criteria for, what it means to be an artist…

huh? at least on windows, firefox just uses its background maintenance service to take care of updates. no admin needed. I don’t even notice when it happens, except for the occasional “what’s new” page that opens along with firefox.

Don’t worry about it too much, this meme is just garbage and basically everything it asserts is wrong or inaccurate. The other person who replied to you was just being a condescending smuglord because you asked reasonable questions instead of participating in the “Windows Bad” circlejerk.

Well, that is at least a start. Now could we agree to switch “Israel as a nation” with “The right-extremist government of Israel, it´s military and the ultra-nationalist settler movement” please?

Israel “as a nation” has been doing this since its inception in 1948. It has never been anything besides an ultra-nationalist settler movement. I suspect you either greatly lack historical context or are arguing in bad faith tbh.
