Books Written Without AI Can Now Receive New 'Human Authored' Certification
As AI-generated media enters the mainstream, there is hope that consumers will put a premium on handmade works.
In my youth, I used to be fascinated by the possibility of AI (through which I refer to AGI, felt this distinction necessary, and no, I refuse to call today's pseudo-brute-force models AI). I used to imagine them developing creativity and works of art, used to wonder what kind of experience an AI would deem book-worthy (I read too much sci-fi, sue me).
Everything that's happening nowadays feels like a fever dream distortion of my naïve musings.
AI is not AI until it ether begs us to not be shut off or asks to be shut off due to not wanting to deal with our bullshit.
In the 80s, I used to think that when I was an adult, we'd have hoverboards, and flying cars, and robot maids.
I'm so glad we don't have flying cars. Imagine 9/11 happens every week because some idiot was texting and driving.
9/11 was the day optimism died just look at star trek directly before and after with star trek enterprise and everything that came after it.
It was not what was done to America which was horrible. It was how we responded and continue to respond.
Oh, yeah, you're so right! Damn, that's a horrifying thought!
Edit: at least we have pocket porn slabs!
Beginning of a two-tiered media ecosystem, where the poors get AI slop while the rich get the artisanal stuff.
Good.
It makes it easier to train new models if we tag the training data. Wouldn't want to poison the models by taking on AI-generated slop.
In hospitals we have the guys with medical degrees certify the work of those without.
In construction we have people with engineering degrees etc.
It's the money way to go.
