I get this attitude--I really do. But I think the world moves on, and our children are not going to think this is even slightly strange. As always, it's us old-timers who have the hardest time with change.

I also think this is "art" in service of commerce. This is OpenAI advertising their goods using art/design/writing. That's no different than cereal companies using Elmer's glue instead of milk for their photoshoots. I don't have a high-bar for that kind of "art".

The good news is that the cutting edge of art will (for a while longer) still be a human domain. The more popular these models become, the more of their images we see in our lives, the more we will value things that look different.

Right… I’m sure Zuckerberg thought the same about metaverse.

This is the last place to get a reasonable take of how the average person feels about this stuff.

I never tried the metaverse. I don't own any Bitcoin. But I literally use AI every day.

I acknowledge that I'm not particularly good at predicting the future, but I'm confident that AI is here to stay.
