The MKBHD Santa story was way better than I expected, but AI (based on the story and the images I've seen from AI Art) will by design be completely derivative. To me, this raises a lot of intellectual property issues as artists who's images are used to "feed" the AI programs receive no compensation, or acknowledgment, and more importantly their copyright is infringed. I think what would be interesting to see/test, is whether an AI program would be able to generate a story using prompts from popular movies and tv shows without plagiarising. So, if given a prompt to create a story about a team that plans a heist inside a dream within a dream - would it be so close to Inception that it plagiarized the script?
I have a daily driver SRT10 Viper, and an ACR, both in manual I am also a SCCA driver. There is no, no chance I can out drive a comparable car with a electrical mechanical pdk (style) 10 speed. Just stop, everyone. Marquee nailed it, you can’t put move the computer.
I feel like EVs should be able to have a ‘sim’ mode where you can learn how to drive manual without the repercussions of missing a proper shift. I never learned and would love to, always have, but also not trying to destroy any engines learning 😂😅
I want to be able to flash different car profiles to my EV, I’d love to for an hour have the simulated drive train/experience of a GT40 or other car legacy car I’d never get a chance to drive. Like for fun in a parking lot or something trundling along like your car was a Model T, and maxing out the 20 horse powers or however much they made. Also a third pedal, that just enables 100% coast and cancels all regenerative braking
As a manual daily driver, the chances of you wrecking a transmission are pretty low. If you have someone teaching you, it’s much more mental than actually difficult mechanically. Highly recommend learning, the connection you feel with the mechanics of a car are greatly appreciated when you’re changing the gears yourself!
AI art scrapes images under copyright and these AI art companies are profiting off artists’ life work without their consent. Some creators have even found what look like artists’ signatures inside images generated on Lensa. How is this ethical or legal?
@@djjean85 that's not how it works. using art as a reference for your own art and trying to imitate art through a computer bot are 2 COMPLETLY different things
@@viruscat385 can you definitively say that we aren't living in a simulation and our humanness isn't anything more than a row of computers somewhere? The issue isn't that artists are being "stolen" from it's that we are commodifying something that doesn't need to be commodified. Capitalism forces the concept of ownership for the sake of profit. It's bad that artists may lose money as a result of new technology but they are hardly the only ones who have encountered this problem. Adapt or evolve.
You guys definitely should consider Matt Farah, or some other car journalist as a guest to ask them about EVs. Could make for a really interesting episode. (I know yall had one with Doug and props for that I really liked that episode)
I love the talk about AI and inspiration and all that. It reminds me of the movie iRobot and when Will Smith's character asked the robot Sunny if a robot (AI) can write a symphony or create a work of art. And then the part where the robot draws the picture of the bridge. My question to you guys would be; do you think AI will eventually get to a point where it doesn't need to pull from the internet at all? Will AI be able to create originals not found anywhere else?
I'm pretty certain that we will NEVER have ""AI"" that can create "works of art" without having "references". How ever to "create (synthesise) new art", sure, i.m.h.o. ""AI"" has more or less already reached that state. Though that (as always) depends on where You "draw the line" for something being considered "new"/unique (not to mention being "art"). Regarding my certainty that ""AI"" always (and forever) will need "references" in order to ""create art"". I base this on my belief that in order for the "created art" to "make sense"to the "human interpreter"(audience. The "art" HAS TO HAVE cross references with the "audience", and these "references/parameters" for that HAS TO to be "embedded into the AI" either "hard coded" or by training before it will be able to then ""create meaningful/interpretable art""... AND I would argue that exactly the same same goes for humans!! If You were to take a human baby and somehow manage to extract all the innate inherited biological references, from it, and then managed to raise it without in any way imbuing it with any "references". Then that "human" would also be unable to create anything that would constitute "MEANINGFUL ART" to a normal average human... I believe that what ever they would create would be the equivalence of "white noise". And what ever meaning/value the "normal human audience" found in that "art", would be what ever that they themselves contributed and created, basically from what they (the audience) "brought to the table". Best regards.
@@onlyeyeno I like this take on it but I must say you may have confused my saying; "doesn't need to pull from the internet." As referencing things. Of course AI will need inspiration from something just like, as you stated, humans do too. I simply am curious if we will get to a point where a program or code can be written that is all about learning\info-gathering but from surroundings. From the audio the AI takes in. The images "seen" and behaviors witnessed. And without being connected to the internet in any way, could AI learn like that? But I do share your view. Thanks for the input. This is very interesting and we live in such an amazing time when it comes to technology!
You know, talking about the Huawei Earbuds/Smartwatch, it feels like the same discussion when smartphone companies started to put a stylus in a smartphone which now is in many phones. Maybe this really is the future of smartwatches/earbuds?
I agree with Marques on the idea of putting two devices on one thing you have to pick up. I feel like a less unwieldy way of putting your headphones on your watch would be to put the headphone case like 90 degrees around the band with some sort of connection to share power, so it faces up when your hands are at a natural position, and some sort of latch so it definitely stays closed. If the case is small enough and rounded it might not be too distracting
5G is bad in NYC as well. I constantly have connection issues now. Once it’s connected and I’m not moving great. But transitioning from my apartment to my car I lose connection for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Before you come for me this is just one issue. Happens more often than just that.
I would totally get a full electric car with a manual gearbox, the torque and acceleration of electric are some things I want but I love to drive so much and I drive manual everyday for the past 13 years and every time I drive an automatic car, it’s so boring and I hate it. Yes most people just have a car to go from point A to point B or as a tool. But for me it must be fun to drive because I really like it and I’m sure I’m not the only one like this. I don’t like the argument of just get a gas car, we want to move away from gas car and we have to find ways to convert people like this one way or another and if those feature are it, then I think it’s a great thing. I really hope this will become a thing, I don’t care if it reduce the efficiency, I just want to keep the fun of driving while doing my part and switching to electric sooner than later.
I agree 100%. I feel like a key demographic was missed. How about the people that like driving a manual car because it's WAY FUNNER, but don't want to have to spend a ton of money on gas every week?
In F1 automatic shifting is banned, its not that drivers are better than the machine its just prohibited under the formula. This has actually been the case with active suspension, traction control and automatic shifting since the nineties when electronics came into the cars in a big way. Even the invention of the paddle shift by Ferrari in 1989 was almost banned.
a case of AI Art use i seen that was amazing and went viral was Shaun Harrison's use of Midjourney, After effects and Photoshop to make concept art for "Bashenga: The first Black Panther" it looked so cinematic and epic everyone was fooled thought it was really produced by Marvel and would stream on Disney+ 🤣🤣
While Teslas have a single speed gear box attached to the drive motor, don't the dual motor variants have different gear ratios for the front and rear?
There is no 'database'. LensaAI, uses stable diffusion. They fine tune the model with the images you provide. The file they use, is 2gb. It does not contain 'links' to anything. It contains learnt weights that allow it to understand the relationship between images and text. The 'watermarks' you see, are not watermarks of artists, its watermarks of the AI. The AI has simply learnt, some art has watermarks, and thus tries to make its own.
I think these models tend to have a problem with hands because they’re so expressive jsut as a a Face is. Not to mention the many degrees of usability the ai now can’t see the hands being in because the programmer didn’t give as many anchor points to hand recognition than to face recognition.
I asked CHATGPT what was the most prominent difference within MKBHD and LTT: There are a number of differences between Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) and Linus Sebastian, as they are two distinct individuals with different backgrounds, styles, and approaches to creating content about technology. Here are a few of the most prominent differences between these two RU-vidrs: Content focus: While both Brownlee and Sebastian create content about technology, they often focus on different aspects of the tech world. Brownlee tends to focus more on product reviews, unboxings, and tech news, while Sebastian's content often covers a wider range of topics, including computer hardware, software, and gaming. Style: Brownlee and Sebastian have distinct styles when it comes to creating content. Brownlee is known for his concise and informative approach, while Sebastian has a more laid-back and humorous style. Background: Brownlee and Sebastian have different backgrounds and experiences in the tech industry. Brownlee is a self-taught tech expert and journalist, while Sebastian has a background in computer science and engineering. Following: Both Brownlee and Sebastian have large followings on RU-vid, but Sebastian's channel has a slightly larger subscriber base and overall viewership. Overall, these are just a few of the differences between these two RU-vidrs, and there are likely many more. While they are both known for creating high-quality content about technology, they have their own unique approaches and styles that set them apart.
31:39 maybe I missed it, but how much time does it take before the AI kicks the story back to you? Does it take a few minutes of processing, only a few seconds?… Two or three hours? How instantaneous is it to create a full story from just a few prompts?
If manual transmissions were purely a thing of the past, why would anyone buy a manual transmission vehicle since automatic transmissions exist? Because they LIKE it. That’s oftentimes the only factor. So why would manufacturers not want to offer that in their ev future? The ability to toggle it on and off (say for sitting in traffic vs sport driving) is a huge bonus. I find this to be such a weird take from Marques.
Agree that the smartwatch with earbuds in it, is soo useful. Something new as Marques said💯⌚️ Now, if the new battery technology in future makes the battery so slim then. Maintaining some thickness to fit in maybe foldable earbuds in the watch, wouldn’t be that bad, right? 😋
On chatGPT choosing popular or common headlines; chatGPT does not actually have access to the internet and all the data it's trained on is from 2021 and earlier
The whole hot take on EV’s with a manual gearbox, I don’t understand it. As someone who drives a Manual everyday for work I understand the need for a manual in haulage situations with ICE vehicles although automatic gearbox’s are getting better. BUT I honestly think we could get better efficiency out of an EV by having gearbox’s that allow the motors to run at lower RPMS for highway driving & Higher torque for haulage/towing or off-road driving. This is technically still new tech that can only improve. I think we are still a long way off as far too many governments are not investing in the transportation industries. Australia (where i’m from) as an example the economy is so driven on fossil fuels and many of which support government is really preventing growth potential in our economy and tech. Our government turned down an opportunity to invest in solar panel tech in the 70’s and saw it as a waste so didn’t invest. 🤦🏻♂️
Ok, I had to pause and just say that I am very much in that small group that is totally on board for a manual transmission, electric vehicle! I absolutely LOVE driving stick. I am also fascinated with EVs and really want one (but I'm a poor person) so I am all for the idea of shifting gears in an all electric vehicle! Do EVs still have gears and junk in that way?? 🤔 Lol
The smartwatch with earbuds idea...I would never buy it cause it looks huge but I understand the idea. It's one less thing to carry with you. The point isn't that earbuds cases are too big but that they exist in the first place.
I just don't want AI using my art. No one knows who I am, and if my art is getting used by someone for something I absolutely do not consent. I rarely get paid for art to begin with.
As an EV enthusiast who drives a manual 2007 Honda civic I'd have to agree that the concept is intriguing, but I would probably never buy an EV with a "gear" shift
I want an EV with manual but not the fake engine noise. I would like to go away from gas cars some day but the thought of giving up the manual transmission makes me die a little inside.
Here is why im kind of against tech youtubers now reviewing cars... you dont really understand the car space or car enthusiast space. part of the big thing that i enjoy driving, is the experience of shifting gears, being connected to the car. Its not a case of getting over it. Its like me telling you to get over not having a larger variety of ports on a laptop... Petrol cars are going away. Having the compromise gears in an electric car in the future will be good.
Automatic for driving cars probably because it's easier to drive and easier for OEMs to add features like adaptive cruise. I take pride in my ability to drive stick. Probably different with EV but an ICE auto sucks because you can't properly regulate the power band. Shifting programming is usually done very poorly. slush boxes
Has MKBHD reviewed a Garmin watch on his main channel? If not, then why not use a Garmin Forerunner 955 or Forerunner 255 for a week and review either of them on the main channel. These are the latest two Garmins that majority of runners on a budget consider. Pls review a Garmin watch MKBHD!
Loved yr hot take on crypto. I'm so happy for this crash so crypto people can stop talking about crypto when they don't know what investing and value is.
I’m excited for the AI age. Bring it on. I also want a cyber hand like Luke Skywalker and laser swords that actually work. Hell, I want the tech in the Star Wars universe to be real. One day maybe.
Hard to hear the crypto takes at times being so into the tech and digital rights it bring not only in finance but to property and more. However I smile cause hearing people be skeptical reminds me of the early internet and MKBHD doesn't see the value yet being ingrained into the Web2 world and it has benefited him greatly which he deserves but blinds him to the future. They're not wrong, they're focused on the immediate and have low incentive to jump into crypto.
Problem is when countries are being super prohibitive vs gas cars. So we all HAVE to drive boring EVs. All about range and 0-60, tech and maybe design if you're rich. I like a bit of driving character in my car.
Love manual transmissions, love EVs, think this Lexus manual is dumb because, fundamentally, it’s trying to simulate something. I don’t use a Polestar to go off-roading because that’s not the right tool for the job. Why would I use this kind of EV to feel the engagement of a manual when I can use a manual transmission vehicle instead?
Here’s a question I hope u address in a podcast! Apple is a company that only release a product/service if it’s good and done the “apple way”, then why have wireless charging that’s shitter than android????
As an artist, These AI Art Programs scare me a lot! But I'm pretty sure the human generated art would become more valuable since everyone can make Art with any of those AIs out there, and so would be considered less valuable... especially because there's less creative control and the fact that you can't always get exactly what you imagined when making the prompt.

To quote on one of the RU-vid channels which usually create videos about AI stuff: let's see this two papers down the line. This area is still in heavy development, and some of the tools are already producing crazy good results. If development doesn't stop suddenly caused by some kind of limit, I think the future will be interesting. But I feel you, for me GPT-3 is scary as a programmer :D
We’ll have to more and more prove that your drawing was made by you and I mean at some point a.I. won’t just generate but could draw from start to finish and also seem legit
I NEED YOUR PERSPECTIVE KOBBY. i made a video that should hopefully help you relax on why chatgpt wont take your job away. its on my channel, let me know what you think!
I also used AvatarAI (also using many wedding photos resulting in suit pictures), and the driver photos turned out to look like a copy-paste of one of my images as well. (same driving suit and all)
Guys, you should be talking with people like Karla Ortiz or Steven Zapata when talking about not only Art AI but also the ethical and law side of things. As these artists have done research or are doing something about this whole issue.
I just want to say I Respect you both for seeing this with AI and agree with you.Where do you draw the line.Some of it was nice but you need to know what you really experience in life.And what you don’t.Love the Podcast guy’s and so Awesome episode.Deb ✌️
You should just ask the AI chat bot to write the pro and con arguments for it's own use of source material in relation to giving credit to the creators of the source material.
For AI there's the difference between legality and ethics. There's also monetization vs research. My personal issue with AI is that artists are given no voice or option to not have their works excluded from AI learning, in fact in some cases, people have purposely fed their art against their wishes into these databases. If this was copyright free items and works that are voluntarily submitted or paid to have submitted, I think the conversation would be vastly different. The conversation artists are currently having are: 1) having their works submitted for AI learning without their consent (and in many cases against their specific wishes) 2) the inability for AI to unlearn something that it shouldn't have learned/fed 3) corporations using data ostensibly gathered under 'research' and 'nonprofit' fair use and then commercializing it (Stable Diffusion and Laion - one case of a corporation using a loophole of taking nonprofit research to circumvent copyright (and make a lot of money from it). Laion itself has taken from numerous sources that normally wouldn't be available for corporate entities. 4) The argument that Machine learning =/= inspiration (from both artists and AI experts - some talk on plagiarism and overfitting) 5) AI art databases vs what AI takes from other genres (e.g. music and dance which has large corporate interest already in place in which AI has limited only to open source/copyright free data) 6) AI 'Artists' (not artists who are using it as a tool to enhance their works but people plugging in phrases and otherwise not a part of the creative process) are already taking these pieces, claiming them as their own and advertising themselves as regular artists (without informing that they are using pure AI with maybe a sharpening or colour adjustment filters) 7) AI 'Artists' stealing works in progress (from streams and such) and 'finishing' the pieces with AI, posting and claiming the art as theirs and then bullying the original artist to claim refence work because they posted it earlier (before the artist could finish) Here are a bunch of links to helpful information that may shed light on why this is such a difficult topic for most: www.kortizblog.com/blog/why-ai-models-are-not-inspired-like-humans?fbclid=IwAR27VVogdwWYRySGKMAeBPjr6Q0Ku7_o7e21p-MjYnQUGsgUYOVAfbqSXI4 twitter.com/svltart/status/1592220369599045633 www.upworthy.com/lensa-app-ai-profiles-privacy-ethics twitter.com/PeachiieShop/status/1599858286307987456?s=20&t=CQRUdXCrNOQtiN0IYp5yow twitter.com/kortizart/status/1593723972314882048 kotaku.com/genshin-impact-fanart-ai-generated-stolen-twitch-1849655704 Here's a link to a Town Hall with Artists, US Copyright office and an AI Ethics expert discussing AI Art. It's long but goes to show how complex things like this are since style and artist names are not by and large considered copyright-able. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7u1CeiSHqwY.html Already have a lot of links here...but I have a bunch more lol, won't post them here since you can find a lot more out there (e.g. look up Samdoesart, Kim Jung Gi who died and had his art uploaded the day after his death, Greg Rutkowsk and many more)
Wonderful. I would also add that if it's true how they are "learning" this stuff it is violation of human rights. Their defence is actually making it worse. When they "train" ai to copy and then generate "new art" they are appropriating humans without their consent to steal their talent- it can be ability to sing so they mimic your voice, ability to create different kind of strokes with your hand etc.- that is all part of a individual talent like a fingertips. Talent is a part of individual and makes part of their identity. If you are creating robotis to first copy and then futher generate products by unauthorized talent appropriation you are violation someones identity and you are outsourcing their work from them self and therefore we have violation of human right to work and identity theft. I know it's a bit philosophical but it does go under ilegal activities in humans rights category. This has opened a new sets of violations in many forms, both moral and legal.
@@leogirl6695 You can whine and moan all you want but the truth is people complaining like you are nobody's, you don't get to decide where the future is headed for better or for worse. So stop acting all high and mighty with all those buzzwords you've learned from people equally annoying as you.
I have loved my garmin epix gen2 so far. I'll leave for a weekend snowboard trip with 85% and use the GPS and activity tracking for 2 full days on the slopes and track sleep and come back with 25%. Very usable and the garmin connect data is really easy to use and look at
It's not that much of a problem to me, these companies collect copyright material for commercial reasons, and since there's no human intervention between grabbing the art and spitting out an image, then there's a direct link, it wouldn't be able to output anything without the data, so it is stealing. For it not to be, there needs to be a transformative interpretation by a human mind. AI is just code. One solution is to make it illegal to grab art, prose, code for AI, without the consent of the creator, or at least disclosing the source material. Its not the tech that's the issue, its the fact that the AI uses copyright resources to cash in for the company.
I am definitely in the small group of manual drivers that love ev. Like, I'm getting an ev as soon as it's affordable to have one that is as reliable as my car is, but I will also miss driving stick. I think it is much more fun, even at normal speeds. But, I also use it to save gas, which I won't need to even think about with an ev
On the subject of stick shifting. In Europe, most people drive with a stick shift and many don't actually have any experience using an automatic transmission. So even so I do consider having a manual shifting experience a bit odd on an electric car, I do think that there must be a reason they're building this.
As for the signatures found in AI generated art, the AI has seen a LOT of images it knows to be portraits that have signatures on them. So to the AI, portraits often include a little squiggle on them and it adds that in. It's not just trying to recreate specific artists' signatures.
If we were talking about dall-e, I’d agree. But they were talking about the Avatar AI that seems to be literally splicing images together and leaving signatures in there, basically like if a human photoshopped 2 images together, rather than creating a digital drawing from scratch while looking at reference material. I’d argue that’s far less impressive and is most likely less morally justifiable than dall-e and other diffusion-based methods
I wanna know everyone’s end game moment for what they believe peak AI will be like. I personally think AI will get to the peak point of something in the vein of Altered Carbon. Downloaded consciousness into synthetic bodies.
