Reply to comment by Psiweapon in A.I.-Generated Art Is Already Transforming Creative Work by Gari_305

Technology did not care for artisans with automation. What mattered was the bottom line. Money. Efficiency. Capitalism.

The average joe cared little as long as they got their cheap iPhones. The companies will now get an AI to do the work of millions for the price of a few.

People would cry foul up until they get a new Marvel movie with millions of hours of manpower’s worth of visual effects made only possible with AI. And none of the ‘overworked’ stuff we are already seeing.

There is no pursuit. This is already the direction.

You can expend your limited human energy to fight progress, or you can seek to understand it, adapt to it, and then influence it.

But Pandora’s box is open, and if you think we can go back, then the onus is on you to explain why.
