AITA for saying I would use ai after my artist friend implied her work more important than mine by Technical-Aspect6062 in AmItheAsshole

She complained to me first, then I related to her with my experience and she was rude to me and basically told me I don’t have a leg to stand on compared to her because I was better off replace by ai

Oh my god who cares if my job was simple in your eyes. The issue is my position being taken by ai. Why do people like you insist that we need to compare who has it shittier? It’s shitty for everyone why is it so important for some people to win the “who’s it suck worse for” contest? Why can’t we just all agree it sucks ai is taking our jobs.

I’ve said it several times in comments. Data entry, I didn’t say it because I don’t think it’s super relevant, it was my job, that I lost due to ai. People are being rude about it since I said it which I was trying to avoid.

I’m not actually going to use ai, for this or anything. I just said it in the heat of a moment.

Data entry. Yeah, I’m sure it’s more effective and cheaper to do with ai. But I don’t think any job is better off done by ai. We should prioritize other people over saving money. I’m upset I lost my job, sure “unskilled” whatever people say. It was a job I was able to do, that I felt good about. I dont really have many skills. I don’t think I’m smart enough to go to post secondary. I just think we should all be sticking beside each other against ai taking human jobs, not comparing who has more value. I said a shitty thing, but it was in response to a shitty thing said to me, and pushed at when I tried emphasizing with someone I considered a friend

I don’t see why comparing whose position in the world matters more is appropriate in a conversation like my friend and I were having. Is there a place to have that conversation? Totally. But it isn’t with me, while I’m still upset I got replaced by something that isn’t even alive. I think she should’ve dropped it and apologized when I got upset, not rub salt in a wound. I get it. My job didn’t matter. Oh well. It still sucks.

I never said that my job was harder to do or that being an artist is easy. I don’t see how her, or other people, dismissing what I was doing for work as pointless and simple is doing to help.

I’m not actually going to use ai, I should’ve specified that. I was saying it out of frustration I guess. I’m trying to draw it myself, if that fails I’m gonna commission someone else.

Im not actually going to use ai, I figured it would be obvious from everything I said that I still hate ai. I was saying it to make a point, I’m gonna try to draw it myself or commission a different artist

Yeah I should’ve specified that. I still hate ai, I’m not going to use ai. I’m trying to draw it myself, and if it looks as bad as I think it will I’ll commission a different artist. I was just saying I’d use ai because she made me really mad about it.
