I agree with the figurative image of the spark to describe something gen AI-produced slop lacks.
Figuratively, because we all know you’re actually being literal and make it about that bullshit you call “soul”. Sorry Christians, this still doesn’t exist.

Frankly I’m fine with the alliance, and fine if their motivation is believing ai art is bad because it didn’t originate from a “soul”. Like fine. Believe what you want.
Now go destroy some data centers (in Minecraft ofc)
