well, if you're not going to embrace the power of gpt3 it does yeah wrt recruitment - I've not seen it yet but I'm not hiring concept artists. I imagine it's going to be a huge pain in the arse when hiring programmers in fashionable fields (javascript and it's spawn) cos the market is already flooded with awful copy&paste…
Meh ... - AI in its current form is still unethical vomit/litteral art and identity theft. So even if it can look appealing nothing justifies it. - Writer-directors can do anything they want and don't have to explain themselves if they want a character of any ethnicity and any sex-appeal. - There's a reason why "DEI" in…
Three words you will never see in the future: "Respected AI Artist". History of course will respect the great artists of the past. But in the future the respect will be reserved for the ones who created the AI, not the ones who pay a monthly fee to use it. It has basically granted everyone with super powers. And spare me…
As terrifying as all of this is, I don't think our clients will use this tech in the near future (2-3 years). It's too risky...for now. If some legislation comes out that data needs to be opt-in and be completely transparent, then our clients will have to rethink their workflows and redo a lot of work because even if they…
The core part of the problem is most AI advocates don't know how the human brain works, particularly in regards to creative matters. Thus their whole argument is being made from a faulty assumption that they understand when they don't. They're partially right in that the AI can learn what its being fed, but it can't…
The hypothesis I was working towards was that this tech or rather a more consistent perfected ethical version could become the closest to a star trek like holodeck. Anyone regardless of their race or ethnicity can portray anybody. The focus then would be on telling stories and being creative. Aleast that's what the more…
Sorry, couldn't help it :D Now for the sake of broadening the discussion and since history has been brought up many times, perhaps the following read is relevant given that it shows what happens when an utopian system (undoubtedly well intentioned, like all utopias are ... or pretend to be) puts a target on the back of…
@Tiles all the law is threat of violence, and almost exclusively it is used to protect the owning class, not the working class. So if you counter a threat of violence by pointing to the law you are just offloading your violence to somebody else. Doesn't put you above anything like you are not an angry chimp like all the…
I've seen controversies in American voice acting a few times where characters who were PoC were voiced by white people. In recent years, there's been efforts to replace those VAs with people matching the ethnicity of their characters, or at least closer than some random white person. That's not something I really agree…
Really, I've been thinking about the subject for a few days now, and I'm not sure whether to see this technology as an ally or as the nemesis of the artistic industry. What I do know is that currently, as it's presented, I only perceive it as a money-making machine for the companies behind it. I see it more as an…
