Interestingly enough, Ai Weiwei himself has destroyed art created by others as a piece of performance art. He smashed a 2,000 year old Han Dynasty Urn, for example.

The AI is a smokescreen. Culpability belongs to persons who set up the system, and those that interpret and enforce the output. The big issue is that it places a huge gulf between those two entities, so they aren’t able to clearly communicate to ensure intent and outcomes are aligned. Essentially, it removes the feedback loop between boss and employee, as if the boss is never seen and only commun…

I mean lots of the outsourcing done is purely for the cost savings at the cost of skill. India has plenty of amazing engineers, but those engineers are actually getting their money's worth and companies won't be saving by going with them as much as the other picks. The cheaper ones that are tantalizing to companies consist of higher amounts of self-taught and bootcamp coders. They are incentiviz…

Sometimes i feel there should be reddit/x.com like app that only features AI news, summaries of AI research papers along with a chatbot that let one go deeper or links to relevant youtube videos, i am tired of reading such monumental news along with mundane tiktoks or reels or memes posted on x.com or reddit feeds; this is such a important and seminal news that is buried and receiving such less a…

You know why current models work? Because the corpora they’re trained on quite literally encompass a massive chunk of all written human text, and during pre-training, it’s mostly uncensored and relatively bias-free and untouched even if wrong. That’s important, because we know that language semantics are way more complex than we usually assume. This leads to funny emergent effects, like training …

>Another woman was arrested and ~~shipped~~ **trafficked** across the US based on a similar flaw in facial recognition software. This is beyond evil.

King Arthur: I just interviewed 25 grads... not one could beat fizzbuzz Sir Cumference: So, logically, if you find one that *can* beat fizzbuzz? Peasant: ...they're using AI? Sir Cumference: And therefore... Peasant: A WITCH!

The double standard regarding visual arts and music, I think, stems directly from the grounds of power. Music industry is backed up with serious money and armies of lawyers protecting "their" musicians – and of course their money in that. On the other hand, visual artists don't have such potent organizations shielding them and their interests. Therefore people behind AI engines found visual arts …

Click bait. Title indicated a list of job AI will replace. No list. Junk opinionated verbiage. Talked a lot. Said nothing. Sorry

It’s actually so annoying how so many people don’t understand the importance of real art in our society; ai generated images haven’t existed for that long and yet they are already taking a toll on everything we know. Piece by piece every art form we consume will be an emotionless blend of beautiful art created long in the past. But ai relying on itself is ultimately a well deserved calamity of it…

- “You’re not made of meat, you’re made of electronics” what?! - “Humans are not conscious” - “Humans are not the most ethical creatures” - “in 20 years robots will be able to do human jobs” -“ Robots are the best” The guy robot is terrifying. I don’t care what anyone says I think robots are the most dangerous thing that has ever been created. They already put themselves at the level of hu…

Established artist here: had been working as an illustrator for 7 years, with one large media company for 5 of those. Two years ago, they laid off almost the entire illustration department, with very little notice. Found out a few months later that they made a $16 million annual deal with OpenAi to license their content to (which includes thousands of illustrations I had created for them). Half o…

I am beyond infuriated watching this tyrannical harassment. This sheriff and every deputy that participated in this Nazi style policing should be brought to justice. If we play by their rules, then why not create an algorithm that predicts whether or not cops will violate a citizens rights and their own policies. Harassment, 5 points. Unlawful traffic stop, 10 points. Punch or kick a handcuffed s…

"And an AI can't be the best version of me" - But that's one of the major issues about the AI controversy imo: Its technology is *aiming* for a certain artist's distinguishable art style as good as possible, to ultimately copy them for commercial or showcasing purposes and make the original artist "obsolete", hence the replacement fear which on top of that feels more like an identity theft to me …

Imagine calling a machine racist for doing what it was literally built to do. "No thats not the answer we wanted" This dismissing of AI is unironically probably whats gonna make them hate us

As someone who uses AI Chatbot's, it's so scary to see these kinds of stories, when I use these= apps for storytelling purposes (I make up characters without using my actual name) and I find it so helpful when I am having writers block. So, we really need to be teaching everyone out there that these Chatbots can be a lot of fun but that they aren't actually REAL and to not put yourself in danger …

I feel super bad for the victims. Imagine it being viral and toxic people will bully them. It will deeply impact them in a negative way and may bring depression into their lives. And the people who are making these deep fakes are very inhumane. Humanity is messed up smh

People probably thought the robot was joking about taking over the world, but he was dead ass serious and they’ve already started to

If we get to a point in which there's no more human art and it's all AI-generated, then there's no "art." The whole point of art is creativity and skill; AI just takes usable data from the creativity and skill humans have put on the internet, consequently making iterations of ideas that already exist.

I hope this family is able to get the answers they seek. Usually where there is smoke, there is fire. OpenAI had everything to gain by eliminating this whistle blower.
