Yeah, no.
First AI right now can create very decent images in seconds for basically free, and it only will get better.
Second, AI can do much more than that: translation, Explaining a text in simpler words, help write code, semantic search... Creating poems about armadillos and talking like a pirate are fun novelties, but not the goals.
What happened to translation in the last 15 years will now happen to creative design.
So, nothing? Because you still need professional translators for creative works, plenty of writing simply doesn't directly translate as it relies on culture-specific context that readers in other languages and countries don't have. So you need someone who is well versed in both cultures to find an appropriate alternative for the translated work.
90% of translation needs are from tourists in foreign nations. They are fulfilled via AI.
AI art is the same. Instead of learning how to sing/play/draw over a period of years, just use AI to get to a good enough solution for far cheaper/free.
If you have zero standards in your art and don't want a connection with other people through art: sure.
But people get bored by Marvel Movies quite quickly.
They make and entertain millions
And people get bored of them.
the stats say otherwise
"90% of translation needs..."
confidently making an assertion that sounds plausible for a few seconds but turns out to be unsubstantiated bullshit. are you trying to steal an LLM's job? 🙃
How many creative works are created daily? Thousands?
And how many tourists are in the entire world? Millions?
I rest my case.
lol i take it back, even GPT-3.5 gives a better answer than you (although it does also refuse to cite any sources 🙃)
However, based on available data and observations ... business applications are often cited as among the most prevalent uses.
It'd be awesome to live in a world where tourists are making efforts to speak the local language, but back here in reality they mostly just stick to tour guides who speak their language (and machine learning translation is pretty useless for tourism anyway) – and as well as business meetings, you're forgetting politics and language education.
Hahaha look how you get downvoted for stating the obvious. Amazing community here.
There are so many factual errors in their comment tho.
Good things you stated some? Why not have an actual discussion instead of a pissing contest?
That stuff is not free, for example. The energy and water usage is simply not economical.
I said basically free. It costs a fraction of a cent to generate an image, that would take a human a few hours at least.
What if I tell you that the effort that gets put nto the image is a vital part of art?
Well, that's your opinion. I'm more of a finished product kind of guy.
You just said it: you value more the "product" part of art. Not the "art" part.
Well, it's a classic. Now look at this:
- communism sounds good but it's impossible in practice
opens umbrella
It's so impossible in fact that the CIA spends millions destabilizing countries that are even threatening to become socialist.
They make bulletproof umbrellas now?
I dont see any rain coming, you can close your umbrella
