Another AI Fatality: Tech Bro’s Art Gets Rejected By Copyright Culture

Oh, isn’t this just delectable? Matthew Allen, a tragically hopeful dweeb bloke, recently had his AI art win first prize at the Colorado State Fair. Quite an achievement, eh? Don’t hold your breath. The US government, the all-knowing almighty, has declared it couldn’t be copyrighted. You know why? ‘Cause it was too bloody machine-y and not human enough to leave a meaningful contribution. Can’t make this crap up.

Suck it, Silicon Valley: Machines aren’t Artists

I can hear the collective sniffling from all the tech bros, scrambling to save face. What ever will they do now? The ruling could be a proverbial slap to the ‘innovative and creative’ world of AI. This sets a precedent that if your work’s just artificial intelligence spitball, it ain’t worth squat in the eyes of Uncle Sam. So they better drop the arrogant notion that their mechanical contraptions can match the human spirit.

Further Proof that Machines are just Oversized Toasters

Now what, my oh-so-smart friends? The US government has effectively reiterated what we all knew, machines can’t replace us! Your magical rotating LED light bulb that churns out poetry or hemorrhoids out Picasso replicas isn’t worth the cheap Chinese materials it’s made of. And as for you, Allen, maybe stick to graphs and code. So remember, no matter how convincing your “masterpiece” looks, you’ll never really trick us into believing it’s human-made. Your mechanical malarkey will never epitomize creativity, it will just act as an expensive party trick. Can’t wait to see the ‘creative innovations’ you guys will fail at next.
