As an artist, I’m honestly terrified of AI. I depend on commissions at the moment and the fact that AI can create what I can in a fraction of the time, is scary
It's game over my friend. Our power now lies within the integration of these systems within specific work flows. Or, just walk away and develop other skills. Regarding art - the market is absolutely saturated and has been for many years. I have little interest nowadays, beyond supporting two friends who rely on my composition skills.
Why be terrified, as an artist I see many different avenues opening up because of Ai. While it is in its infancy, I believe it will come down to licensing and copyrights.
Artists being paid for their work is the equivalent to being paid for your gaming hobby, or your sport hobby. It's just time to get real about it: you were grossly privileged and now it's time to align with other hobby's difficulties to get by.
@@777SNYM art is everywhere. And graphic design is a real job not a hobby. When you turn on the TV. That is by actors and artists. When you read a news article. That is made by art and artists. Literally everywhere we look. The ads on the side of a bus. Please for the love of god. Even this women you're watching on RU-vid is working an artist job. It's not a hobby it's a real job. You're being entertained. Imagine how grey the world would be without these jobs.
@@777SNYM you have no respect you probably have no talent at all. My best friend is a tattoo artist and I tattoo model and he does air brushing, paintings and all types of forms of art. Me a guy who draws stick figures and has no artistic bone in my body I respect the talent and profession of art.
@@777SNYMWhen you play video games you are only moving your fingers and fantasizing. When you make art you develop a skill with results that wouldnt exist without you and that can be monetized. The video game doesnt need you to exist and you will produce nothing from it. There are thousands of people who make a living with graphic design, tattoos etc.m so to say "wake up" to people that have had careers for 100s of years is crazy & ignorant lol
Here's an old joke: We got intelligent phone, intelligent car, intelligent freezer, intelligent coffee maker and on and on. So were are the intelligent people? Like economy, gap between high and low intelligence is getting wider and wider, and schools are not helping to level things out because they care more about not offending the minority of the minorities.
We gave ourselves to it. For example we used to have to memorize all our friends and family's phone numbers. Now I can't even be 100% sure of my own number and look it up just in case
I can't wait to see them try and express that "stop worrying about your insecurities" campaign while throwing FAKE and literally PERFECT people in your face 😂😢
People will now be able to falsely claim that someone said something because they will be able to clone someone’s voice to say what they want. This could be very bad
@@xandercruz900 It will get good enough that it will work. There will literally be an AI arms race, they will pit AI that can generate things with AI that can detect if it was generated by another AI. They will feed and improve off of each other.
On that last point, gaming studios aren't backing off AI to protect artists, they're doing it because the legalities are still being sorted out and it's too risky to have a multi-million dollar production pulled during or after development. You can bet that once studios know it's safe, they'll be the first to replace their human artists with AI ones.
I have been in the "data industry" for two decades now. AI is turning into both a dream and a nightmare. For years the work that I did (data engineering) felt not optimal. So I find it amazing that AI will be able to do my job in about 5 years time. But it also freaks me out, because 50% of the working population is about to become obsolete... and they don't realize it......
As a gamer I saw this coming as well, not to long ago (I think a week back), Ubisoft has announced that they have patented an AI script writing assistant tool. At the moment it's focusing on barks in game (random dialogue and noices heard from NPC's) and the script writers are supposed to change it to be more suitable for usage in game. But knowing the industry, it's only a matter of time until it's used to cut corners to save money on hiring script writers.
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should." - Dr. Ian Malcom. This applies to most things these days.
What the clothes designers should do to use their tool better is for you to have your exact body digitized so you can look at all clothes on a runway being worn by you so you can see what they look like on you ( perfectly tailored) until you find one that looks right for you. Naturally, then the dress can be assembled to order by robots and delivered the next day.
Just wait until you watch a facetime of AI pretending to be you. Talking to your mother. Ai wants to be YOU. Wait until every advertisement is personalized and addressed to you.
the hilarious part is creative things like art, poetry, etc are the things that people thought AI would never be able to replicate, let alone be some of the first 😂
A.I can't create the emotion that comes with art or poetry. But they can analyze the words/ textures/ colors that go into art and poetry and recreate them.
@Whomstve You see Art is also a passion and a form to express yourself through many forms. So I don't actually think they would stop doing what they like to do. After all, AI were made for them to do the work that not all of us want to do. Both things can coexist perfectly.
@Whomstve I feel like artists don’t create art to create it, they create it to express a human emotion, experience etc. I guess the point to do it still is to uphold the tradition of human made art, or “cis art”
Depends on who you ask. There are those within the art community who view AI Art Generated images as some gateway, delving into illustration and arts. Artists also use AI Art to generate a conceptual idea, generating that into something tangible, and working off that. Others generate landscapes, and backgrounds, and insert portraits, characters, and photographs into the generated image. Not everyone within that community views AI as some lurking threat, and if anything, real artists will become more valuable since AI cannot create anything NEW and can only imitate. Where my acceptance of AI falls off are the AI Companion Apps, exploiting loneliness, anxiety, depression, and preying on a generation who's had over two years of life experience, stripped away. So many young teens/young adults, especially males, have enough to deal with far-left ideologies, the Tate Sigma Male Chuds, and the out-of-reach expectations for physical appearance. There'll always be a demand for the human element because humans can create new experiences, but AI cannot, and AI should exist in tandem with humans, not replace them.
When the same people who tell you how awesome the Industrial Revolution was for progress and human civilization stop yelling about how modern civilization is "destroying the planet", I would imagine?
Tbh, I get her point about art and stuff, but I know online clothes shopping would be a whole lot easier if you could see what clothes would look like on you and not a random person that doesn't have your same height or bodyweight. That way, you could see what cuts and whatnot would generally look good without having to order it. Using AI for this would just mean modeling would become more specialized and competitive. But tbh I don't have a problem with that. I did a bit of modeling in my late teens/early twenties and it's really a toxic industry the higher up you go. It gets to the point where you can't climb any higher without plastic surgery and a whole bunch of nonsense. I do think that AI could never replace true art, but of all the art forms, I care for modeling the least. 😂
I love the idea of a catwalk of designer clothes on AI models, that are my exact size and shape. There is nothing worse, than seeing an item, that looks fabulous on a model, but looks terrible when I wear it.
“This is the worst AI will ever be.” If it’s this good amongst the civilian population, it’s terrifying pondering what it’s capable of doing in the hands of those behind the closed doors of government.
Moral obligation? There is nothing you can do.. it's like a train stopping on command. It just won't happen, people will get run over and lose their jobs..
I am a 23 yr old artist. I’m afraid for the future of art, ai, & how it will affect my ability to get a career in the arts one day. I’ve kind of always felt like modern society has cast the arts aside and doesn’t value it as much as it used to. Humanity & culture is built on art. Now we have computers spitting out fully finished masterpieces in seconds. What will happen to those who care about creating now?
Thank you for talking about this! "Traditional" artists (or human artists) will only be the first to suffer this....exploitation of technology to make profit for a certain group of people. Other professions will come next. Like, who needs art teachers if any humans can just turn on some apps, make some sketchy lines or type a few keywords, and ta-da! Art, art, and art, bam, bam, bam! I tried an Art making AI app before and got super bored pretty fast, like, within 3 hours. Maybe it was because I didn't intend to make money out of it, but mostly because what came out didn't fit my imagination when I typed the keywords in at all. Most importantly, looking nice or not, those WERE NOT MY art, simply so. And the same is happening to music and performers, writing and writers, and many more job fields eventually will be affected if we don't draw a line soon.
there could be serious implications with frame jobs too. imagine replicating someone’s voice on a past phone call to incriminate them for something they never said or did…
I am an artist and it has been hard getting work these days since barely anyone wants to commission an artist that would take days to complete and some just go to Ai that would complete everything in a few seconds. I feel let down about this and even thought about quitting, us human artist will probably be no longer needed in the future but hopefully that kind of future does not exist.
The real problem isn't that AI is getting too big. I'm not worried about that if many big tech companies still can't get a grasp on what I really like with their AI. No, the big problem I see is that companies that use AI probably won't lower prices even though they won't have to pay models or singers or others that work with them. How much do you want to bet Levi's will still be expensive.
@@thatElene people like models and photographers, yes, but corporations that switch to AI will still charge the same amount. If they don't have to pay real people, it means they keep more profits. Now I'm not anticapitalist, I'm anti corporate greed.
@@thatElene imagine that : "During the Industrial Revolution, the introduction of machines to replace human labor caused panic and resistance from workers. The workers feared losing their jobs and becoming obsolete, which led to protests and even attacks on the machines. Many workers saw the new technology as a threat to their livelihoods and traditional crafts. However, over time, workers adapted to the new technological advances and found new opportunities for employment." This text was generated by AI
It's important to understand that while AI can create new versions of what exists, it cannot invent completely new concepts. AI has to be trained; a frequent method is "supervised learning" where the AI is given examples of something (preferably a lot of them) and it learns what that thing is like. It can then generate new patterns that are similar. I made realistic-looking pictures of a ballistic missile launch for my deep learning class from existing missile launch photos - granted, I did it on a gaming laptop with a single midgrade GPU so it took all night to get decent ones the size of a postage stamp, but it works. You can do this yourself with python packages such as keras tensorflow and a python programming environment and interpreter that you can get for free. Because of this, AI can really only create variants on what it knows. It is not really self-aware; it cannot come up with new ideas on its own as a human can - and likely never will be able to. It also cannot get around fundamental questions of computation such as the halting problem, NP-completeness, and related issues that make computation problems intractable or impossible. Turing remains untouched.
this is only scary to uncreative people. Im a traditional oil painter. A 3D designer and a writer. Literally hanging out with chat gpt to make my life easier when im stuck, blocked or need references for settings, ambience etc. Dunno. Photography didn't kill hyper-realist painting. I mean it might be scary for those anime artists i guess lmao
Right now, Chat GPT is more like an enhanced version of a search engine than anything else. The front end is deceptive and its conversational abilities make it seem more AI than it really is.
This technology seems like it could be a bridge for the evil act of creating content for framing and falsely accusing people - making it look like they’ve said or done something that never actually happened, but looking and sounding too real to dispute.
The most cringe thing is people using AI genuienly think they are artists. I joined an AI group on facebook because I was interested in the whole ai craze, but people will get so heated and defend so hard that they are real artists, because "writing good prompts takes skill". Its soooo cringe. It takes 0 effort to write "realistic HD portrait of blonde woman" and get a good result. I admit ive even thought about using AI to make album covers but I just feel bad about it, I dont want to be apart of pushing AI art to being the norm
kind of scary that someone could train an AI to talk like you and then make you say anything they want... feels like this is going to be used to fake evidence and frame people for crimes or make it so they have a fake alibi...
As an artist, I found myself struggling to compete with AI. My art looked awful compared to the "perfect" AI art. So I quit. Then I came back, I've decided that I will make art for myself, to enjoy the process, to slow down and enjoy the work. I have known for a while that I will never be able to make money as an artist, but I still enjoy art for the sake of being artsy. . And at least my family will enjoy handmade drawings instead of a cold, soulless image made by a robot.
Actually I think the AI models are a pretty good idea. I can imagine entering my age, height, ethnicity, weight, muscle tone/body type, sex, etc and then seeing how the clothes would look on me. It’s not feasible to hire a model for every possible combination of those traits, but AI makes it possible. I don’t like the virtue signaling about it in their marketing and I feel for the models who will be out of a job, but as a consumer I think it’s a pretty solid idea.
last year in china a company has started testing an AI CEO and it is doing better then the human run corporations in the same sector over the last year
I think art is art regardless of where it comes from, HOWEVER, it's extremely important for the artists to specify if their art is a real person, AI, or otherwise. That is where the transparency should be and people can make whatever art they want with the tools that they are given. Cause that's what AI is in a nutshell, a Tool. I totally think this push for "diversity" is too much. Diversity is about showing that there are differences between our behaviors and appearances. It needs to be acknowledged, but not the norm. That's when it becomes a problem and society just shoves it down our throats; choking us in the process.
Things are changing very fast, and it’s sad that a lot of people’s lives are going to be disrupted by this. But I also think that many good things can come from AI, and lots of doors are going to be opened, too. When cameras became widely accessible, the lives of portrait artists were affected. But the world of photography exploded and painters still exists. When digital art came to the world, traditional artists struggled to keep up. But now digital art is respected and we see things in movies that would otherwise be impossible thanks to it. I think AI will be very similar, in the end even though things a re turbulent now.
So what I am hearing is that if not now at least in a few years I could take one of my "piss poor" Fantasy or SciFi ideas (all of which seem to suck since I can either never determine a proper timeline of events or a satisfying ending). Then if I use an AI program and a few well thought out prompts knock out a short story or even a novel. Now on one hand that is awesome (because I currently have 6 unfinished stories) yet on the other hand it totally sucks. I mean that would strip all the creativity out of the process and then any idiot could become an author.
I have been telling people for years about Robots taking jobs, etc. The jobs that have been demolished since technology is horrifying. People do desperate things when put in desperate situations and that’s what’s happening. Technology will advance and decide we as humans aren’t needed.🤦🏾♀️
AI defenders: people will just learn new skills like in the Industrial Revolution. Me: No, they won't. Unlike the Industrial Revolution, there won't be ANY place for human labour ANYWHERE where an AI or robot of any variety can't do it better, quicker and cheaper (not free, because the energy it takes to charge or keep the technology running will be charged somehow from someone). The Industrial Revolution STILL left spaces open for humans to work parallel to the machines. In an AI run and driven society and economy, that won't be the case, because machines would have taken over ANY and ALL human tasks and replicated human abilities beyond human limitations. In all likelihood, humans will get bored, start attacking each other just for to have some level of excitement in their lives (as seen in the summer of love) and the machines will be left right up to the point when they eventually all break down as well.
Spotify recently released a "DJ" feature on their app with an unbelievably realistic voice that narrates just as a radio DJ would. Now I know how they were able to make it realistic. Well maybe not "how"... but this is absolutely insane. We could have more than we could ever need at our fingertips and not even be able to know if it was produced by a human or not. I've always been into dystopian stories involving advancing technology but it's a lot scarier when it starts to become real.
The AI Yeezy actually goes hard. He's basically skipping the middle men of the industry of ghost writers, except this time the middle men are the rappers between the lyricists and the music being produced.
As someone that actually deals with machine learning and AI, I hope everyone still understands that for the AI to create any art it needs to be trained using art drawn by HUMANS, there are many software out there were people type they can do this drawing in this person art style, for the AI to do that art style it needs to know the original human's art work. (Correct me if I am wrong)
Don't forget the AI-fueled voice mimicry that Amazon's Alexa is being prepped for. They want to add a feature that will make it talk in the voices of your deceased loved ones. I think it will end up being emotionally manipulative so that you'll keep paying for the subscription service.
This kind of AI can't replace intent. We often incorrectly believe that "creativity" is intentional. It's more often the process of random thoughts and random combinations with some sprinklings of intentionality thrown in. It's becoming clear, then, that AI which can sample a huge library and randomly piece together things can produce things every bit as creatively or accurate as a human can. Intent requires sentience, and these models are no closer to sentience than an if/else statement. The reason we have Kanye voice singing a song Kanye didn't make is because of human intent, an AI didn't do that on its own. That's safe, and will be indefinitely, because if ever AI achieves sentience, there are now ethical and moral questions about whether we can force it to do menial tasks like "say this in Kanye voice", since it will be just like you and me, but a digital mind. There is a lot of doomerism when it comes to AI, but AI will never replace humans because it has no intent. It will never create award winning stories, or strive for accomplishments. If AI can effectively replace you, your job was menial, just like traditional automation replacing jobs. If you stood in an assembly line pressing a button over and over after just looking at the products as they come by, do you really think you deserve a paycheck when about 20 lines of code does your job without ever making errors and for no pay?
I find this stuff so fascinating : Using AI models for diversity lol - if AI models are used, then that will be a 0 for hired diversity, but potentially 100 for customer diversity. Asian kid sees some jeans, then an Asian model, black kid, white etc. In that way, this would be a win for diversity. However, I imagine the future of AI models to instead be the customer themselves! Imagine seeing some clothes you like the look of, then you send in some photos of yourself, and it shows you wearing the clothes.
You can't supplement a lack of creativity with a tool that is all about copying or using stuff that already exists. That just FURTHER GROWS THE PROBLEM.
We know what happened with Artificial Tears, it made some go blind, some so sick they died!! So will this AI kill?? Or just blind minds so people forget how to think?
Hi, interesting Video, thanks for that. I'm a Software developer by my self and probably will become one of the first affected. As soon as I asked chatGPT if it could help me with some code, I realized that it will change my work. If I am not capable of using this as a helping tool, I will be much slower than a developer using this. And so I guess this will be a mandatory skill soon. The AI is not perfect (jet) and can be a security issue. So there will, as of now, always be a developer asking chatGPT to do its thing to use it correctly. But one developer will be able to do the work of 2 or 3. The thing is, that this was unavoidable. I knew that atomization would make nearly every job unnecessary. I did not think it would begin with my job, but this is how it goes. We will have to come to a world where everyone gets an unconditional basic income. The big challenge is the transition and the big question is then "When?" To ask for not doing it is to ask the time to pause. You can do it, but it will lead to nothing. We just have to adapt fast enough.
I remember back in the 90s there was a whole argument going on about cloning a sheep because it was considered "unethical" and "playing God"... but this -- replacing actual human beings with AI and possibly causing the death of the creative side of human existence -- this is somehow ethical?
If they do this they should have to by law tell future employers (And depending on the job customers) that they went through this system so everyone knows what to expect
They have 3d printers that can replicate the brush marks left in paint for an exact replica of a van gogh but it doesn't diminish the value of the original. A postcard of a work of art doesn't stop the desire to possess the original. I work as a silversmith, some people genuinely prefer something unique.
As a fan of Vocaloid, a voice synthecizer Programm existing since 2006, who is avaiable to buy and make covers, they have games, they have merch and concerts, I can tell you: It's fine. It's a fun toy. I still listen to normal human music and of course anime intros.
Perhaps, but that's because it's not really putting you in danger of becoming obsolete. A lot of other people can't really say the same. Their livelihoods and income streams are affected by these AI developments. That's even if you can look past how easily AI can be corrupted at this point with malicious inputs. :/
AI also could completely ruin music, I saw a video in that someone made Kanye West sing Day 'N' Nite by Kid Cudi. It could be the future in music, and make the musicians lazy, and at that point they might just have Chat GPT write lyrics
AI is a tool as it stands. Levi's statement is a bit weird of course, but this sounds better than ''hey we now have the means to not need a photographer or model anymore which will drastically cut cost for our marketing budgets so we are going to roll with just that''.
The game publishers and developers aren't banning AI to protect the integrity of their artists and work, but to avoid possible legal claims against their work. Once this is settled law and AI art is completely legal to use professionally, it will be rampant in the gaming industry.
Articles written by AI promoting features of AI with ads that use AI "actors" with million more "views" and "likes" from AI bots that will make it indistinguishable to the human getting sucked into the new AI definition of Virtual Reality.
I feel like this comes down to what everything is about. Money. Once they make their money back from creating these AI models, it will be nearly 100% profit. They will no longer have to pay people to model their clothes.
Everyone's freaking about AI, but actual computer programmers are still like, "IT DO WHAT WE SAY. IT DUMB!" The DcodedAcademy picture is actually hilarious. That's just AI MASHING PICTURES TOGETHER. Look, it's Rihanna! And then we got AI-Kayne. That's obviously fake. Why do people think this is "real singer's" competition? Why, because AI capitalizes on what pop music has been doing for years? Being fake!
How is it contributing to diversity by computer generating diverse models rather than hiring real people who come from diverse groups...? As a painter I despise AI art. It takes the most important piece out of art: the soul of it. Every piece I create comes from a place in my heart and soul that cannot be replaced with a computer. It takes longer and it's not always "perfect" but that's the beauty of art.
This kind of reminds me of back in the late nineties the band the gorillas came out and it's a animated band. With all animated people. And there were a few other animated bands that came out at that time.
Bias isn't coded into AI, it's learned from the data pulled in and the developer can try to correct for that but as long as stereotypes are reflected in data, machines will have that bias Also do you see how that artist still had to use creativity to make that song for AI? Creativity will always exist, it just might look different which is why it's important to pay attention to tech and keep adapting to stay relevant
