    Well yeah, AI is a tool for the wealthy to remove economic opportunities from the working class.

    Now get back in the mine, slave.

      AI is no where good enough for that. But these rich fucks want their customers to accept shitty quality and to force artists and developers to accept shitty pay so that they can keep more for themselves. Hence, they are so obsessed with AI.

        Sorry to be the one to inform you but it’s already happening. Many places are turning to AI art to avoid paying artists.

          Yes I know. That pisses me off the most. I hate how rich fucks will do anything to avoid paying people or hiring people. It’s like they are willfully ignorant of the idea that if there are no employees, there will be no customers.

          That’s awesome. Human expression is unpredictable and dangerous and the faster we move past it the better.

        Knowing some of these higher ups myself, I‘m pretty sure most of them cannot tell great quality from garbage and do not care about good products. It’s only ever about the short term numbers.

          Current AI is not something that will get much better than this through iteration alone. Current ‘AI’ technologies are hardly more than statistical parrots. We are missing many fundamental pieces to create an actual AI that is more intelligent than a bug.

              That’s not a bug though, AI just doesn’t know what a finger is. You can fix some of these problems through iteration, but it’s still not going to know what a finger is.

                Read the comment above mine. I wasnt talking about a bug in code but an insect.

                  OK. I thought that was just poor grammar, which is fairly common on the internet. Carry on.

      Jokes on them. If they replace everyone’s job with AI there will be a whole lot of unemployed people with nothing better to do other than build guillotines.
