AI is not Inevitable..
It's here whether we like it or not? like it's an act of nature? I refuse to accept that. and I definitely don't think it belongs in the creative/art world. The underlying purpose of Al is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth. I recently read an interview with one of the co creators of the show Hacks(which is so good),Luisa Aniello and she said a lot things about AI that really resonated:
"I think it's been completely forced upon the creative world as a way to minimize our talent, minimize our ability to have employment, and it's frankly insulting," Aniello said, "We do not need Al coming in and disrupting the thing that is about humanity. The last thing we need in the expression of humanity is robots coming in and telling us how it should feel and how it should look."
But Aniello doesn't just hate Al as a human artist; she hates it as a human being. "It's so deeply offensive to me on every level," Aniello said, going so far as to claim that, any time someone uses Al to speak for them, they're betraying their own humanity. "The repercussions of people not wanting to think is so disturbing to me, because really they don't want to think because it doesn't feel good"
"They're literally trying to avoid feelings," Aniello continued of Al-users, "The more that we take feelings out of being human—and we do that over and over in every different way of our lives—where does that leave us?"
