Valve quietly not publishing games that contain AI generated content if the submitters can't prove they own the rights to the assets the AI was trained on
The AI Revolution is going to be on the scale of the Agrarian and Industrial Revolutions in terms of change. People, on a whole, do not like change since it means uncertainty. Uncertainty about their careers as you mentioned, but also uncertainty about our very nature. We all like to think we are special, unique, and the pinnacle of life. If a computer can not only do what we do, but faster and better, than what does that make us?
That is why people are so adamant in trying to say AI cannot create art. Art is the one thing humans have over all other known forms of life and if we lose that... like I said: what does that make us?
When I learned to play Piano, I did so by playing music I did not have the rights to and that was fine. I could take my learned skills and even use it commercially. If an AI does the same, its suddenly a bad thing.
Here is how I learned to play Piano: I watched videos people posted online and then paid money for someone to guide me.
Here is how an AI learns: It analyzes videos people post online and then has someone who has been paid money guide it.
The similarities are obvious. I don't know about other people, but if you threw a tabula rasa me (someone with no idea of what a piano even is) in the wild with a baby grand, I would never have learned to play it never mind play it well. I am willing to bet that goes for just about everyone here.
Its a scary thought seeing us approach the singularity. Like I said 5 days ago, The AI Revolution is going to be on the scale of the Agrarian and Industrial Revolutions in terms of change. We all like to think we are special, unique, and the pinnacle of life. If a computer can not only do what we do, but faster and better, than what does that make us?
The fact is that Humans are moist computers wrapped in a fleshy case and we have managed to design something that will inevitability be superior to us in most ways. It will learn faster than us, it will think faster than us, it will create faster than us. I am seeing it before my very eyes. I remember about 10 years ago when Nvidia published their Canvas AI that would take a basic drawing and make art from that. Now I am watching it upscale my old DVD collection into 4k quality. Ten years, twenty years from now I expect it to be able to be able to create whole shows from scratch. Imagine watching Babylon 5 and saying "Computer: Change it so Sinclair stays the commander of the station" and it rewrites the show, revoices it, and reshoots it for you. We so often complain about how bankrupt Hollywood is. AI will make each of us our own Hollywood. A creative renaissance!
