How do you feel about the use of AI providing a voice to those who wouldn't otherwise?

A ton of good and bad obviously, a good voice or a bad voice can be amplified.

In this case, in my opinion, it's a net positive providing someone who wouldn't have been able to create on their own to spread a strong message of peace and unity, one that's able to break through the controlled media ecosystem.

AI has good uses in my opinion, those in power do not wish to use it as such though. They simply want to replace labor at any cost, including our energy, water, land, air, and lives.

How do you feel about this? What if it were made by a local model? What if it inspires human artists to take a stand and create similar art spreading a message that challenges people (arguably one of the main ideas of art, to communicate)?

Personally, I've got mixed feelings, but it makes me want to pick up my bass and/or sax and start writing a similar message in response. I haven't seen much music being made (some exceptions of course) that's pushing an anti-war or anti-regime message when we need it most. I imagine that's in large part due to the financialization of...well everything. Our culture and art has been morphing more and more to be made to please algorithms, to go viral, to make top sellers lists, to appeal to a commom denominator.

Arguably, the AI video here has more of a human message than a lot of mainstream art today.
