I see possibilities with AI art. Iām interested to see where artists take it. I donāt like how it works now, but that doesnāt mean that it canāt evolve into its own genre. This stuff we are seeing now is garbage; but, I can envision an artist who trains a system up on their own style who is able to see new possibilities in it.
I love pinball art. Thereās so many themes that normally Iād hate that somehow I love in pinball - circuses and magic and cards. None of that stuff in and of itself appeals to me. Yet, thereās just something so great about it all. I do think it needs a human who understands humor and fun and play and how to translate that feeling visually.
In the beginning there was a lot of interest in using those diffusion models to purposely create hallucinations: no intent on creating āfunctional clip-artā or āplagiarize popular author for profitā, but āhey, we trained this model to recognize and generate eyes, letās make it reconstruct this imageā ā BTW that was real nightmare fuel
But that doesnāt precarize jobs so not much interest in the real artistic uses of AI models
In a gold rush - sell shovels and pickaxes.
And explosives. Lots of explosives.
What will I do with all this abundant spare time I have?
Oh.

lol, apparently machine-learning systems have serious trouble decoding human morse code? self-clocked, sloppy human timing, full of local slang & abbrevs, and not much of a real life training corpus
so learn morse to dodge the panopticon for a while
(whole thread at link isā¦ interesting)
I absolutely cannot wait until people wake the fuck up and everything involving or featuring AI, whether itās art, LLMs, hallucinating search engines, āassistantā buttons or just the mindless invoking of the buzzword by clueless CEOs and marketing executives, is universally shunned and properly seen as worthless, counterproductive and even embarrassing.
I do not understand how this hasnāt already happened. AI is enshittification on a breathtaking scale, making everything worse across so many different fields and aspects of society, and yet people seem toā¦ not even notice? Deny it? Even worship it? It should be about as popular as DIVX, Metaverse or the Virtual Boy, yet people seem to be incapable of grasping the obvious so far.
Iām getting scared that soon the entire world is going to be the equivalent of a shitty AI-illustrated Harry Potter pinball machine, and society will just shrug, lower its standards and pretend this is the way it has always been, while those of us who remember a better way will be ignored and treated as luddites.
Vantaa but close enoughā¦

YouTube prepares crackdown on āmass-producedā and ārepetitiveā videos, as concern over AI slop grows
Nearly 10 years after the Peppa Pigslop scandals.
Well done Google!
Again? Or am I thinking of somebody else?
You could be thinking when the original filing was done, this is they actually got penalized for it.
At last, a use case for AI agents with sky-high ROI: Stealing crypto
Using AI models to generate exploits for cryptocurrency contract flaws appears to be a promising business model, though not necessarily a legal one.
Researchers with University College London (UCL) and the University of Sydney (USYD) in Australia have devised an AI agent that can autonomously discover and exploit vulnerabilities in so-called smart contracts.
