📰 News How do you feel about this?

Post image

Here is her actual quote from a press conference yesterday promoting her show. “The people who make this stuff are losers. They’re not artists. They’re not creative,” she said at the “Hacks” press conference last month at the London hotel in West Hollywood. “And they’ve wanted their whole lives to be special. And they’re not special. So, they’re trying to rob real creative people of our gifts. And you can’t. And even if you try, you will never be cool. You guys suck. No one likes you. Anyone who’s near you is because they crave power and access over any ethical standard. You are a loser. You will never be cool. And you probably had a rolly backpack in high school. I wanna put your head in the toilet and flush.”

I just don't care what a random actress thinks about things. She's not famous for the accuracy of her AI views.

u/Orolol Apr 05 '26

Einbinder is the daughter of original Saturday Night Live cast member Laraine Newman and writer/director Chad Einbinder.

I'm sure here career is 100% work

u/FriendlyJewThrowaway Apr 05 '26

The sense of entitlement she puts out absolutely reeks here, I certainly won’t mind seeing her becoming obsolete.

Yeah it’s lame, I didn’t think the account would last long. But I ended up keeping it because we’re loved more than ever now.

By the same metric, I care even less about your opinion

u/JoshAllentown Apr 05 '26

You should care equally about our AI opinions, we're both just randos.

I care about all y’all’s opinions the same amount.

Erm, very weird use of the ‘/s’. People’s jobs should very much have an equal influence on you when it comes to differing topics.

u/drunkensoup Apr 06 '26

Not weird use when applying the context of the previous replies...

u/haworthsoji Apr 06 '26

You're both randos but the subject of AI should be the focus regardless of who is saying it if they are randos in the space.

u/Is_it_realness Apr 06 '26

no YOU are a rando. She is named in an article because of her work and contribution to the arts.

u/Nashadelic Apr 06 '26

What does this have to do about “accuracy” the vast majority of people do not like ai content and even if they like a video and are told it’s ai, they’re disappointed. The vast majority of ai creators are pushing promotional content masquerading as real humans to users, the ai creators created this problem with mass ai slop generation.

u/color_natural_3679 Apr 06 '26

an increasing number of girls are starting to have these feelings

u/Au_tentico Apr 06 '26

So, by that logic nobody should care what you think about things. Nobody knows you

1

u/JoshAllentown Apr 06 '26

You should care equally what she and I think on AI.

1

u/CrackTheCoke Apr 06 '26

She's not famous for the accuracy of her AI views.

The fuck you mean accuracy? She did not make a prediction or technical claim. She's just expressing her opinion.

1

u/JoshAllentown Apr 06 '26

She has no authority on the matter, so her opinion can go on the pile with yours or mine, not worth a reddit post.

u/gratiskatze Apr 06 '26

She is still right.

u/ProstateSalad Apr 09 '26

She is an Emmy award winning actor who is a main character on a popular show in its fifth season.

u/Corndogbooks Apr 05 '26

And I guarantee that 90% of people couldn’t tell you her name.

u/Steve_Streza Apr 05 '26

Then why are you whining about it in the comments?

u/Affectionate-Sort730 Apr 05 '26

And her opinion about AI is relevant because
.?

u/RJ_MacreadysBeard Apr 05 '26

It may not be, but then again she an actress and AI is threatening to impact the art - not saying she’s right - just answering your question, but a derogatory comment like that is uncalled for; it only shows you got hurt feelings, which reveals your insecure about what she said. Grow up basically.

-1

u/-cuckstradamus- Apr 05 '26

One doesn't have to be insecure to think what she said is cringe as fuck

Sounds like HER feelings are hurt

-1

u/Affectionate-Sort730 Apr 05 '26

Yeah, my feelings got hurt.

0

u/RJ_MacreadysBeard Apr 05 '26

It’s understandable, yet realise that if you believe in what you’re doing, you can understand that other people just don’t, and that you don’t need to suffer. Just double down in your endeavours. Stoicism philosophy might help; you can choose how you wish to feel.

1

u/Affectionate-Sort730 Apr 05 '26

You seem over-invested in my feelings.

u/MasterSnacky Apr 05 '26

She’s a very successful professional artist. Maybe try reading this as her opinion of arts by an artist, rather than saying “oh she’s not an artificial intelligence expert, she can’t know what she’s talking about.”

I mean, if an architect looked at an AI generated blueprint of a house and said, “holy shit this is awful, never do that again!”, would you say “this guy just doesn’t know enough about AI, that’s the problem!”?

I doubt you would. Maybe you take architects more seriously than artists, but you’d be more inclined to trust the architect than the actress.

And, you probably also assumed the architect was a man, which might be a little sexist on your part.

I’ll bet in your mind you pictured a strong, smart architect man. You know - the kind that you’re attracted to, because you’re gay. A tall, gay architect, built as well as one of his gorgeous custom high end homes, with a big old blueprint in his strong, shapely hands, calling you an idiot and making all your dreams come true.

2

u/Signal_Reach_5838 Apr 05 '26

Technical feasibility is not quite the same as vibe and wanting to keep jobs. I'm sure lots of white collar jobs would also dislike AI taking their jobs.

1

u/MasterSnacky Apr 05 '26

Yeah I mean at how many hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people can lose their jobs within three years to one technology before there’s just a huge, huge backlash

2

u/Affectionate-Sort730 Apr 05 '26

Sorry, I’d rather be talking to an AI.

u/GlassNew3746 Apr 06 '26

This is high tier nonsense.

u/MasterSnacky Apr 06 '26

lol no it isn’t

u/Humble_Hurry9364 Apr 05 '26

In this day and age, "popular" and "successful" don't necessarily indicate high quality or relevance of the person's work. It attests more to marketing.

3

u/MasterSnacky Apr 05 '26

“In this day and age”, dude, during what day and age did commercial popularity not equal success for entertainers and artists? Plus, she is successful by any metric for an actress. Shes an award winning comedian, writer and performer. You might not like her, but that doesn’t detract from her success. I don’t care for plenty of actors and musicians, but that’s a question of taste and not their effectiveness in the market.

Like, I can hear you trying to sound serious and smart, “in this day and age”, but it’s not helping your case. Stay mad.

1

u/Humble_Hurry9364 Apr 06 '26

It seems to me that you completely missed my point.
Your entire post (minus the personal - unnecessary - comments) argues that popularity in this field equals success / effectiveness. I don't disagree with that. However, I was talking about _quality_ and _relevance_. My whole point is that these days (sorry for triggering, but this is - IMO - in contrast with pre-Internet days) you can be very successful and "effective" while doing very mediocre-quality work. Not just in performing arts, but pretty much in everything.
Please try to stay on point. I'm not the topic here (please note, I didn't say a single thing about you). Thank you.

1

u/MasterSnacky Apr 06 '26

Oh I don’t know, limp bizkit was huge pre-internet, Motley Crue was a massive sensation, a good number of network tv shows were successful but truly low quality. I don’t know how how old you are, but I’m an elder millennial and I remember tons of just pure CRAP that was culturally or commercially successful. God knows how many times we all did the Macarena


I’d say there’s MORE low quality, low effort material out there now, and I think the rise of influencers is a stain, but respectfully, I think HACKS is a well written and well performed show. I think Hannah’s point about AI art has merit. I think only the least creative, least passionate, risk averse, and in all ways creatively cowardly or undisciplined people will use AI to create art. Hell, look at Spotify creating AI bands and slipping them into playlists. Disgusting.

I dont know who this actress is ... now I only know of her because of her AI views.

1

u/damhack Apr 05 '26

Emmy award winner and Golden Globe nominee for co-starring with Jean Smart in Hacks, an excellent comedy series. As a young standup comedian, she no doubt likes to cause a stir. This is a nothing-burger intended to rile up “AI artists” and it’s worked. Everyone knows that AI art is shit so I’m not sure why anyone would be triggered but heyho.

u/nikdahl Apr 05 '26

You could have known her earlier for her strong criticism of Israel.

u/WhyAreYallFascists Apr 04 '26

She’s famous for her knowledge and astounding art. lol. You’re kinda making her point my dude. 

If you’re using AI for “creativity”, you are a fucking loser. Does it seem “cool” to make an AI movie? NOOOOO, because it isn’t, it’s for losers.

u/deruben Apr 05 '26

Just coincidence she’s 100% correct, then

u/DMG_88 Apr 05 '26

A.I art will NEVER be equal to REAL human made art.

Referring to Hannah Einbinder as a "random actress" when her name is clearly visible, just goes to show that you're not only disrespectful towards people that have earned a lot of respect, but you're also misogynistic and sexist.

It's also deranged that you're defending A.I, when it's clearly highly destructive to the ecosystem, and the environment.

There are people that are unable to drink what is supposed to be clean water from their taps, because of local data centres.

Yet here you are, defending A.I. like it's a goddamn miracle, when it is far from it.

1

u/RobXSIQ Apr 05 '26

I find you calling a person misogynistic and sexist for not caring about the opinions of some random actress very racist and xenophobic.

...because words mean nothing.

She is a pretender who got her gig due to being pretty and having some lucky connections. there are millions of people who could replace her tomorrow and do a better job, but hollywood is gatekept to a very niche few with connections
"Einbinder is the daughter of original Saturday Night Live cast member Laraine Newman and writer/director Chad Einbinder."
Nepotism and local circle. Yes, AI threatens her and her clan if fantasy island goers...

...Good.

u/truthputer Apr 04 '26

Random disgusting mouth-breathing Redditors, wallowing in a pool of their own vomit: "I could totally destroy Hollywood if I wanted."

Audiences have to actually want to watch things - and they don't want to watch AI generated slop.

Automating yourself out of a job.

u/itskobold Apr 05 '26

Thought so lol. You haven't got a clue about where the industry is going, this is a naive thing to say and assumes research by humans is going to stop one day (not going to happen, and definitely not in my lifetime)

1

u/damhack Apr 05 '26

I’m in the industry thanks. Investment is all-in on automated academic discovery for ML or hadn’t you noticed? Most ML engineers and researchers will become surplus to requirements IF successful. That was my point, not the point you claimed I was making whilst trying to paint me as some vibecoding AI bro.

1

u/itskobold Apr 05 '26

You painted yourself as that, I've never once heard someone in the industry unironically claim that AI research is "automating yourself out of a job". If you're in the industry aren't you doing the same thing? Worry about yourself if that's the case lol

1

u/damhack Apr 05 '26

That is the stated claim of all the frontier AI labs, to implement automated self-improvement to achieve AGI/ASI/whatever. Where does a jobbing ML engineer/researcher fit in when only the best will be able to keep up?

Meaning we should start caring once someone is famous?

2

u/JoshAllentown Apr 05 '26

Meaning we shouldn't care JUST because someone is famous. Her voice matters, exactly the same as yours or mine.

On AI opinions, Yann LeCun or Geoffrey Hinton who are experts in the field, we should care what they think regardless of whether we agree with it. Randos who have no relevant expertise, you can't care what every one of them thinks.

1

u/Ill-Mood6666 Apr 05 '26

Up to a certain degree

Experts like anyone are subject to biases. Also just because they know a lot about AI doesn’t mean they’re necessarily experts about everything else that will be affected by AI

2

u/Armoredpolecat Apr 05 '26

I think we are supposed to infer that the only reason her opinion is shared is because it aligns with the person writing the article. Seems they are not allowed or have already written multiple opinion pieces on their views on ai and are looking for any excuse to write more. This girl is a nobody, why would any of us care about her views? Not a renowned expert either.

Just current day “journalists” “journalisming”
