Great post! I am not sure I agree with the quoted part. I think that is more like a result of over-competitive space where the employers have exploited the common youthful desire to fit-in, conform, and prove themselves to maximum extent. It is toxic and I don't think sustainable for a career, which might be part of the…
I don't think humans do anything more than AI really, if you wanted to talk semantics of it. Monkey see, monkey do, there is no magic. Some monkeys see a little more, some do a little more, but AI has seen more than all and can do virtually infinitely. There are things a human can do like anticipate the future and solve…
So technology got us where we are. People are getting spoiled and bored out of their mind, living for instant gratification, lip-sync quotes from movies pretending to be actors, doing their stupid little dances for likes, people no longer need to remember anything because their phone is "smart", many people can´t count…
@"Michael Knubben" that is all true but it is also only the perspective of an artist, and one who is focused on bettering their craft as opposed to getting a product out the door. Many of the people using or wanting to use AI will not be. That is what I was trying to illustrate. In my case, I am a game developer first and…
If the AI could learn the way a person did, then why can't it remember what.. Shrek looks like without making hideous morphed monstrosities of him over and over after getting it right a few times. Why doesn't it just spurt out a 3d model of him since it has tons of angles, it should be able to illustrate full turn tables…
Let's for a moment assume that is the case. And court follows your argumentation and all your fantasies comes true. Stable Diffusion allows training with own material already. And has already kicked quite a few name prompts out of their weight. You cannot longer type in a name of an artist from artstation. It will not work…
@Tiles But we've already shown examples of pixel-per-pixel (more or less) copies of prominent images, in one of the other AI threads. Yes, you can make content that looks similar. The more famous an image is, the closer AI will come to it. But it is not pixel by pixel. And you can do similar images with Photoshop or Krita…
You can´t drive me crazy when you didn´t get the point (or intentionally decided to ignore it) with generating maps in Age of Empires and calling myself level designer and aimbots analogy to art hobbyists in the future. I´m not even going to use synthetic diamond and natural diamond analogy, because to you it is all the…
I am not against AI per se, but I am deeply concerned about the way it is being used. The way it is being used also sparks much bigger concerns about the future. The people creating these systems seem to have utopian views about how this will turn out. They promise us a world in which we will never have to work again and…
I don't think that i mix up things by pointing at the facts. This "AI Jerk" could have also done this with photoshop and a filter. But yet you abuse this false example to discredit AI, and furthermore to discredit all AI users as jerks. And this is how you should not discuss. I can just repeat, hate Ai, but hate it for a…
