@evacide “People get an enormous amount of enjoyment and satisfaction out of creating stuff if it’s low effort,” he said. People who want to be creative, but might not be very good at it, can turn to A.I. and find “a bunch of barriers removed.”
yikes!
@allanb As person whose hobbies are all about putting in many hours of effort for slow, marginal progress in extremely difficult things, I am offended by every aspect of this.
@evacide Exactly. It's a total devaluation and trivialization of human creativity and effort - dehumanizing.
Fortunately, not many people are biting when the slop goes up for sale, masquerading as art.
@evacide what did i just read 😂 this is insane
@evacide Another scary, scary….
Family Geneology!!! Where an AI Agent, could, on its very own, generate a completely fictitious family and inject that family into somewhere like Family Search (a free site with an account). A completely fictitious family with relation.
I’ve already read where an open-source moderator denied an AI code-submission into their project. The AI agent, ON ITS OWN, gathered info on the moderator and began to trash the moderator on social media. 😳 #aislop
@evacide this is all very depressing. And disturbing.
