Botlicker

“Botlicker” is a pejorative for individuals who participate in or are supportive of humanity’s increasing reliance on “AI” systems for even the most basic human task, especially artistic expression. It is a play on the pejorative “bootlicker”, which describes someone obsequious or deferential to authority. The replacement of “boot” for “bot” ties the structure of the word to its intended rhetorical goal of characterizing the proponents of “AI” as obsequious and willing to be oppressed by their clanker overlords.

AI artists are plagiarists and botlickers who cannot create on their own.

Clankwhore

A portmanteau of “clanker”: a pejorative for “AI” systems; and “whore”: a pejorative for a person who compromises their integrity for personal gain, “clankwhore” describes a person who is uncritical of the human cost of “AI” systems. They support “AI” generated art, replacing of humans by “AI” in the workplace, or utilize “AI” to conduct basic cognitive tasks for themselves - or otherwise selling out characteristically human behaviors and activities to “clankers”.

P1: “AI art is going to replace human artists”
P2: “…but AI plagiarizes real human artwork, harming artists and debasing human artistic expression!”
P1: “well, they just need to adapt. AI allows people like me to also be artists. Get with the times!”
