Sorry man, my job is not under threat by ai. The human element to what I do currently can’t be replaced. I certainly use it to help me get my job done faster though.
The threat to “the arts” is not real. Corporate, soulless art might be a less lucrative field for an artist in the future due to image generation capabilities, which is definitely an unfortunate consequence of its development, but real art still has a human value that can’t be replaced by ai. That said, I’d consider image generation to be just another tool of creative expression. Ask 10 people in a room to come up with an image with any of the image generators and you’ll see vastly different levels of creativity in their prompts. The average internet hate train is just targeting this change this time around. It’s exhausting seeing internet posters see something changing and decide to target that one thing until they get bored because their manufactured rage doesn’t actually produce anything.
Ai generated journalism just made shitty journalism easier. The same shitty “top 10 whatever” sites were posting a similar level of pointless drivel 10 years ago but now they can produce more of them, I guess?
As someone with very limited artistic skill, I think your opinion of AI art is gatekeeping. Sorry not everyone can pick up a pencil and put down the exact image they want to see. For me, it’s just another tool of creativity that also happens to lowers the barrier to entry. You’ll find very different ability in producing specific results among users, too. I’ve gotten a bunch of people at work to join me in coming up with prompts and it’s fascinating to see how different people come up with different ideas, and how some definitely understand how to work with image generators better than others.
Not sure what you mean by shitty answers. Ever asked a human the answer to something? They often get things wrong too. I’ve definitely googled something many times only to find misinformation and bad results. This isn’t exclusive to LLMs.
I agree with your last statement though. It’s a great tool that has only been broadly publically available in its current form for less than a few years now. Certainly there’s a long way to go. I just think all the doomers in these comment chains are simultaneously not giving its current capabilities enough credit, but also vastly overestimating the impacts AI generation will have societally.

Yes, the phrase comes from turning a dial to a higher value. Think, for example, of a guitar amplifier. You could “dial up” the volume, meaning you are increasing the volume.
Dial up internet refers to a different kind of dialing.

a bunch of angry nerds
I swear lemmy is somehow simultaneously a bunch of very smart, tech inclined people but also a bunch of nerds who close their eyes and cover their ears while screeching nonsense the moment something they don’t like comes about.
Well, I was referring generically to the few hundred other similar posts I’ve seen on lemmy. Did OpenAI say that chatGPT is particularly good at identifying when the user is trying to trick it? “solve this puzzle” would imply there is a puzzle to be solved, but there clearly isn’t.
But you’re right, I don’t even care if people make fun gpt, it’s funny when it gets things wrong. I just think that lemmy users will be like “see this thing is stupid, it can’t answer this simple question!”, when you can ask it, in plain human language, to do some things that an average user would find really difficult.
What do you guys think about Walmart+? Service has good value, or just another way a company can suck more money out of consumers while providing the bare minimum of service and quality?...

Pretty sure Amazon is contracting outside delivery drivers and that would be the profile for the driver with that service. You sometimes see people in plain clothes and a regular car delivering packages here.
It’s a meme, like 99% of memes are low effort, stolen content. I would argue that someone taking the time to make an image that relates to the joke, even if it’s ai generated, is pretty high effort comparatively.
I work for a nonprofit Healthcare system, unfortunately the companies we buy our materials from are definitely for profit, as are the insurance companies that do their damnest to not spend their money.
