>One thing is being frustrated because you still haven't polished your talent enough, or because the world still hasn't recognized it. But you still have hope.
>Another thing is knowing with perfect certainty that you will never be able to create something an AI can't create in a few seconds without even trying.
Your problem has multiple layers. The first one is that you're a terminal consoomer, so you only understand the enjoyment and creation of art only through the logic of consumerism. You're conditioned to accept the hollowness, rootlessness and inauthenticity inherent in objects produced by consoomer economies. Art is a product to you, and as such, it doesn't matter how, let alone why, it was made, so long as it gives you the shallow stimulation you crave. It's only natural, then, that when you think about producing art, you judge the process of creation as having no intrinsic value, and authentic art as having no "added value". You only know one way to judge value, and you know your efforts would be redundant and ultimately worthless under such a system of value judgment. Of course you feel demoralized.

Underneath that, there are also more personal issues at play: one is that you're oversocialized, so your sense of self-worth is dependent on external valuation. The other is that you can only ever view the creation of art as a potential surrogate activity to fill a void and cope with the meaninglessness of life under the technological system. The outcome is that you see the creation of art as a quest for some kind of "meaning", "meaning" as being dependent on the valuation of others, and others as being consumers that couldn't care less about your artistry. Ouch! Sucks to suck!

The Malthusian cult has been proven wrong about every single one of its predictions for over 200 years. Just let it go it go already. It's primitive pseudoscience. Its only function is to convince you to allow yourself to be culled by your inbred psychopath overlords.

Welcome. I hope you noticed how it solves the issue of there being no primes you can multiply to get 1: 1 is the unique product of... uh... zero primes. How's that for troll math?

"Free will" is first and foremost the intuition there's a natural distinction to be made between the way inanimate objects act and the way conscious, self-reflecting beings do. You can object to specific attempts at formalizing that intuition, but objecting to the intuition itself tells me not that you are rational (what is there to rationally object to before the intuition is crystalized into an intellectual statement?), but that you've been brainwashed into forfeiting your own agency. How belligerent people like you get in their attempts to attack a ghost of an idea really drives that point home: you are lashing out against other people's sense of agency; it angers you that others see themselves as active participants in their own fate.

"I deny it should be mentioned then, for your own benefit."

Don't read it, for his benefit.

It's bullshit based on bullshit tests. Like I care you're confused over my rhetoric at this point.

/sci/ is just /pol/ minus 30 IQ points.
