He frequently clicks through pay walls, which his wife confirmed. As a marketer, he has subscriptions to multiple sites that just aggregate ads, because it's interesting to him. So I wouldn't be too surprised if he did spend a couple of dollars to get through the pay wall. Atrioc is clearly at fault for accessing deepfake content, but what's left is to determine the intent with which he did. As …

It's good for that... To a point. I mean, I used it out of curiosity but imo the silhoettes generated aren't up to par. Very "samey". I reckon it's because of the pattern recognition algorithms. You can't get anything unique, but you CAN get an amalgamation that falls in line with the most common poses/features from the AI's scraped image list. It gets pretty boring pretty fast if you're actually…

I feel like that's what ai art should have been best used for, lovecraftian uncanny images, but nah they had to get better so that billionaires can save 7 dollars.

YES! artists need to unionize. AI is one of the reasons the WGA is on strike right now, they're proving this can be fought so long as people organize.

This era of AI is completely different to anything we've seen before tho. At least internet answers and essays used to make sense and weren't personalized and generated out of apparently thin air. And a lot of times there's a paywall behind papers so we have no choice but to work on our own

​@jonbolton491 ...because the current state of the tech is not up to that. However, all C suites are leveraging AI for decision making.

This is exactly the problem, well said and good analogy. I personally love AI's for their massive potential and how many things it has already accomplished in science but the way it's being used commercially, stealing copyrighted images for art, is appalling and disgusting.

​@AfuaA-qn3pv-KwameCreator By AI artist, they mean someone who claims to make "art" by using artificial intelligence to produce the image they claim they "made" when in reality, the artificial intelligence made it for them. Therefore, they are not actual artists, as they are merely telling an AI what to do and then flaunt the image it spits out as "their own creation" or "art" which it is not

@pmat123That's actually not entirely clear...studies show that AI art needs non-AI art to train itself with. You can set up automated cameras to takes landscape photos to maybe provide data for that type of model, but anything more... Here is the question, if AI art takes over, and the internet is mostly AI, then the models will start getting worse? As they use old outputs as new inputs, the new …

Highway Robbery?? How long do you think it’s going to take for some AI genius to learn how to disable a driverless truck and steal a load of tires or cigarettes! 💥🤪

I agree, the only danger of the AI is us. We want to use AI to create perfect world for us, to make our life easier. Imagine AI calculating that the obstacle to the perfect world is humanity.

Also, one of my wife's better friends is an accomplished artist who is now losing contracts due to 'why should I have to pay a person because I can get AI now?' And yes, her name came up in the leak of those the midjourney model had been trained on.

@sownheard He says _he_ did try to check, but couldn't find it and assumed it was just something Google couldn't find and assumed ChatGPT must have given him a summary.

you see, this I don't understand. with an AI chat bot there's no pressure on you to be responding in a timely manner, it just sits there until it gets an input. they typically don't even know how long they've been "waiting" and they don't mention it. an AI chat bot can say something to you, you can get distracted or busy and not get back on there for hours, days, weeks, months, by the time you ge…

Yep!!! Even the financial situation... AI is being used as excuse to hide the managers mistakes.

@andrewli8900 the shoot down was in 1983, the court case happened in 1996 against the airline, which would be why ChatGPT chose to reference it, it was more than 2 years after the event, but the 2 year limit doesn't apply to willful misconduct. That's why it was a terrible case to cite, because it didn't apply in the current case and would have only served to further support the airlines position.

Honestly, I feel like these AI "artists" don't really care if their stuff is considered art or not. They're just trying to blend in so that they could easily scam people and get away with it. But I agree, if they're so proud of their achievements in AI, why don't they publicly show it then? It's so frustrating.

This. And I wonder how much of it is people being paid a pittance to pretend to be an AI.

Coding is a abstract language that requires a mind that understands that, and lots of people are unable to code because they just do not think like that. Coding will go away for lots of people, but the way coding was done last year is already changing because of AI. If i was on the fence for getting a computer science degree, i would wait or change to a EE degree. The world is about to change, …

I'm sure he would have loved to have ChatGPT to help him build even better games, faster, in the 90s era. But I agree that at heart he's a low level coder who loves hand coding and optimization. Though these days he's running an AI company and uses ChatGPT 4 every day...
