The worst way to use AI

We were always afraid of an AI getting ahold of manufacturing or nuclear weapons, and using those to obliterate the Earth. But instead they got ahold of our entertainment. And still obliterated the Earth.

[@captainhydrodus4616]

[@Voltaic_Fire]

When it comes to entertainment I am not as opposed to it as I would be if it was subsistence level employment, AI makes very poor quality disjointed entertainment but it is not doing a worse job than the barely human cretins currently striking in Hollywood, we are getting insufferable crap either way.

[@Kwauhn.]

Now I don't think AI in its current state is necessarily good for humanity, but everything is still here dude. Where is this AI apocalypse you're freaking out about? We still have plenty of time to fix what's currently wrong with our use of AI. Once all the boomers are out of office we can finally begin to write proper laws for AI, and there are real efforts to get our shit together right now, so no time to wait.

​@@Violet_Knight"Art" is fine as a descriptor, but putting it in the same place / on the same level as human art is wrong.

I can't see twitter feeds because I don't have an account and it only let's me see the specifically linked tweets. It's like twitter is filtering out literally all the content I didn't go there for which is actually pretty good.

[@litjellyfish]

So true. Still what is forgotten here is that AI is an another tool to make creative content. Not to make full blown stuff.

[@MCNarret]

It's funny, I was dabbling in AI generated works and it's not brain dead, more like alchemy and programming, the issue is that it raises the bar for everything, and that can be both good and bad. We should allow for AI assisted projects and forgo AI created ones for creative works. To be honest, it was a pain to get my computer to generate what I wanted and required lots of fiddling, correction, and I had to reseat my RAM at one point because of the intensity of it (I was running locally and it just... died... reseat magically fixed it though) and I even made my own rescaler. Like when you have two authors going back and forth I think that's where AI excels and will be useful. I feel kind of alone in this opinion, since I've mainly seen it used in conjunction with many things I don't like by AI supporters, such as ignoring the issues with workplace competitiveness or dismissing the nature of creativity, but also ignored by AI opponents who focus more on the AI aspect of the issue and less on the real issues such as what constitutes a creative work and how we can make this new tool work with us, not against us, focusing more on a human centric perspective of creativity and authenticity. I've seen some art AI makes and it's incredible, I can't lie about that, and I can only hope people will figure out how to incorporate this to our benefit.

All work should be automated. All of it. Arts included, not just industrial and the like. Nobody should have to do anything as a job. Nobody should have to work just to earn a living, no matter what that work is. Then whatever you like to do, you do it because you like to. Not to earn a living. Like painting? Animating? Sculpting? Do it as a hobby for your own enjoyment, making what you want to make, not what someone hired you to make, and without being worried about sales. Meanwhile if someone else wants art they didn't make on their own, the can get it from the automated art systems, without having to rely on you, and without you relying on them for a paycheck.

[@zack3851]

Even if all work is automated, there's no guarantee we'll all be allowed to benefit from it. It could even lead to the rich and strong finally getting rid of us since they no longer need to pay/ slave us for our services.

@@avereth Lmao, it pisses me off to no end. So many youtubers, and artists in general, are all coming out to 'take a stand' against AI. Nearly none of them did the same when millions lost their jobs over the lockdowns, or even now while many are suffering an impending recession. This is not to get into the politics of those situations, but these are actual occasions where people are losing their sources of income, yet these types only seem to care about their own careers 'potentially' getting lost in the future.

[@AbjectPermanence]

The anti-AI haters out there would probably hate this channel for using EbSynth to draw most of the frames for you. Corridor Digital paid an artist to make many drawings for them, then they used those drawings as examples to synthesize frames of rotoscope animation. They went out of their way to appease haters, and they still got hated. Obviously, there are technical differences, but the practice is the same: using computer software to synthesize frames from provided examples rather than needing an artist to draw every frame manually by hand. The haters out there aren't versed enough in the technicalities to understand or explain how using EbSynth is different than using Stable Diffusion either. They don't care about how EbSynth or any type of machine learning system actually functions. Trying to court or address these people, trying to prove that you're not one of those "bad" AI fans, it's pointless. They'll see your style of animation and decide it's evil like all those other people using AI for animations. No matter how "ethical" you do it, if you're using computer software to make art easier/faster than others, haters gonna hate.

Delivery robots for instance, I was astounded by the level of open hatred those things get, people unabashedly bashing the buggers in broad daylight, damaging them and tipping them over. The more accessible and visible robots will be the ones to spark a new luddite movement and rage at the corpo rats who value labour saving over the financial wellbeing of the regular people around them. Frankly I would not be opposed to this movement, there is a line that society should not cross and if it takes violence against the robots and their owners then so be it.
