'You made this with AI?' A casual conversation captures how creative norms are shifting
sull · x · 2026-11-13
A short IRL conversation shared by @sull captures the shifting perception of AI-assisted creation: someone shows off a hobby project, admits it was made "with AI obviously," and rather than dismissing it, the other person notes it's "still really hard and takes forever" — the maker says he's never spent this much time on a side project.
The exchange highlights a growing norm: AI-built work is increasingly judged by the effort and craft behind it, not dismissed as cheating.
