@lns most creative people create things not as a product but because they have a drive to create: a lot of times the final product is almost incidental.
Doing creative stuff for your job is rarely an actual expression of your creativity, even if it requires some element of creativity.
Will creative people cheat and use AI for their jobs? Maybe, if it ever gets to the point where it doesn't suck. Work is work, after all.
Will they stop being creative for creativity's sake? Absolutely not.
Professor Geoffrey Hinton, the “godfather of AI,” is “very worried about AI taking lots of mundane jobs.” That’s why he has advised U.K. government officials that universal basic income would be a very good idea. BBC News talks to Hinton about who would benefit most from AI, who would suffer from it, and the emerging human-extinction threats facing humans. https://flip.it/QBBzZB #Tech#Technology#Human#Extinction#AI
I've had a few requests for different badges in the same style as my “Powered” and “Made by a Human” badges.
I’m thinking about taking these and a few more requests and selling them in packs containing 8 badges in 8 different colors in 88x31 PNG and SVG @ £2 (minimum donation)
If you have any requests for these badges, please let me know in the replies and I will add it to the list!
"#AI has the capacity to conjure convincing human simulacra from trillions of bytes of data; and, by doing so, to upend centuries of assumptions around truth, identity and our shared experiences of reality."
"We should make it a mark of shame, not pride, when you make your AI more #human." #DanielDennett
Totally hooked on Professor @aquigley#keynote at #EverythingOpen today - it's all about #interfaces and #HCI - and about #sensors - and how they can be used for secondary purposes to those originally designed - and at the end of the day we are all #human - and this limits the attention we have for input.
Super interesting!

@KathyReid@aquigley This was an awesome talk, I am excited! Also very much appreciate that Aaron stuck around for the whole conference and we got to chat to him!
