Yes, I’ve seen the Ghibli-fication of memes via ChatGPT. Yes, it’s mesmerizing and touching and it grosses people out because many said that AI can’t do shit and now their little hearts are moved by a synthetic organization of colors and shape on screen, and they. Can’t. Take. It.<\/p>\n
And here’s the usual media take on how we, humans, are so much better than extremely complex systems (which is what we are, btw) who can do a lot and more every six months or so:<\/p>\n
\n“I think the proliferation of AI tools and the subsequent explosion of AI-generated art is just going to lead to newfound desires and appreciation for the human-made varieties.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
It will not. For one, to appreciate the \u201chuman-made varieties\u201d you need to know the world before AI-generated art and that’s a diminishing number of folks every year. Two, this assumes that humans can separate AI-generated art and legacy-generated art, and that’s as of today in the middle of giant improvements of the former, already impossible.<\/p>\n
Third, this assumes that people give a fuck about human-made art that much. Everyone makes art. It doesn’t really have any value but the one we give to it.<\/p>\n
What AI does is shatter the world of expensive art, yes. Did it ever make sense? I don’t think so. A hour or two of work and you sell that piece $40,000 because the patron is filthy rich? That’s the world of expensive art right there, and that market is now kind of irrelevant. Overnight.<\/p>\n
So, everyone born 2000 and up is cooked enough to never see or even bother to see the difference between human and AI art. People born before don’t really give much of a shit.<\/p>\n
Everyone with a bit of imagination can now create whatever they want, quickly. Unprecedented. We need UBI, on god. Let’s go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
