| I think people here are confusing everything. And Parent you dont realize that 10 years from now you might lose your job not because of some external factors but because you mindlessly got yourself out of your own job by using tools you dont understand. So let me clarify a few points. 0. Parent, every input you put in that box is an input you soon wont have to make (and that will feel great at first) until you have no input to give anymore. 0.5 By art, I mean entertainment mainly. Not constrained to fine art. 1. Of course this looks like a tool now. And tools are great. We gota make sure they stay tools though. 2. Whatever work you do now with them, the AI will learn to do it by itself without you. You are training the AI. 3. The copyright issue is not unlike music and games in the early 2000'. You would pay if you were proposed the right delivery method. 3.5 the AI isnt creative, this is sophisticated plagiarism. 4. Moore's law. Moore's law. Moore's law. There are for-profit companies behind these AI that have no limit in the amount of value they wanna grab. Their goal is that we can click on a button and voila, you have a movie. 5. Please automate my job you may think. Absolutely, I wish mine (software developer) was. But art / entertainment is different. Now I cant explain it entirely, Im not philosopher (there is something about we still gota control what we do and do not) but if you automate art, our brain becomes useless. Our soul dies. And nature tend to recycle whats useless. Turns it into food. 6. "We ll just do some new art / entertainment". Which the AI will mimic the next day. So you cant even hope to work on entertainment anymore. It's a death I cant qualify. The core of whats wrong here is ultimately, in a perfect world, an artist could choose if he wants the AI to scan its work (i.e. integrate its work in the tool) and be payed for it. That way we would choose what we like to do and automate everything else. If we cant do this, the AI will do everything even what we should be doing. So we should ban those models (or improve their practicality). |
