Yes, no one knows, and that too is besides the point. For instance one might believe that a country that goes full throttle into eugenics and human cloning would become populated by world-conquering super-humans within a few years, so why resist it, might as well do the same ; but that wouldn't prevent other countries to…
Pretty much this, the people at the top who push this technology are glorified idea guys who buy into the hype on how it could change everything. I have friends in other tech fields where their bosses and managers try to push this stuff because it will make things so much easier and better somehow. Then when they are…
Stable diffusion was a thing even before it came to existence in 2021 which didn't change the human factor involved with arts. Everyone is only butt hurt because Chat GPT prompt can be used with it and anyone can ask to make anything and present the results as their own by writing few prompts. My take on this entire thing…
We're definitely getting AI moderators. I'm not thrilled about that either, but I do feel that narrative applications could be a total win for AI in games if curated well enough. While watching the latest Star Citizen tech demo, I found myself thinking, "wow, I could really get lost in this world if it weren't going to be…
Well, I can't talk for MisterBannedSpammerDoe but one very relevant example of unions not being the silver bullet that many think they are is what happened after the recent writers strike, with Sag-Aftra striking a deal on AI voice acting with a tech startup without consultation or agreement with the very talent they were…
I suddenly realized that I had a bunch of articles about the sad way the industry is going, as well as intellectual contributions from people far smarter than me; and a community to share them with. This is the article by crackedotcom alum Robert Evans, but if you want to listen to it on his Behind the Bastards podcast…
Hey, at the end of the day a buch of people learned a brand new shiny word that feels smart (LUDDITES ! LUDDITES ! LUDDITES !), so that's that. @ghost-d : Thanks for sharing your thoughts, you Tablet Tip Worner you :D Even as a mere thought experiment the example of the kids is chilling because it just rings so true.…
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…
I honestly don't think most employers will care. They'll just accept whatever the AI gives and try to modify it a little, then stick with that. They'll attempt to use human hands as little as possible and for the instances they do, because less skill and work in general is needed from a person, it opens the position up for…
One thing I've noticed is these AI cultists cheer that "you have nothing to fear as long as you don't suck" Trouble is, sucking is a big part of the journey of becoming an artist. If you want to be an artist you have to accept that you will suck for many years. After you stop sucking, you start making beautiful images or…
