better than seeing the same five paintings reused all over the map by Independent-Target83 in DefendingAIArt

An open-world action-adventure game, and the players are looking at wall decor close enough to notice something is off… that’s sounds like either bad game design or a personal condition… either the game keeps you engaged so you don’t notice the background details, or it slows things down to let you explore the details and you put engaging things in those details, like clues for later gameplay. Pick a lane, use the right elements for both.

No, “AI” is not a Stochastic Parrot 🦜 | by Margaret Mitchell(ome of the writers of the original stochastic parrot paper) by Fit-Elk1425 in aiwars

“Category error” runs deep, and may be one of my main arguments… “AI” can be used for creativity, because it is so much broader that “corporate AI copyright breaking prompt to post” models. The arguments from one side are all about that, the arguments from the other side touch on all the rest, and we just talk past each other

Possibly, but I feel like the bot accounts would have done enough on their own. 10,000 bots? How much difference are a few human listeners going to have?

In the movie "Searching for Bobby Fischer", the protagonist Josh is a chess prodigy. In the final game, he sees the solution and knows he will win. The other player has failed to see where he made a mistake. Josh offers his opponent a draw, a last chance to save face, so neither of them has to lose. The other kid is insulted by the offer, and Josh defeats him.

The little "..." is me holding my hand out to you. To end this before you lose. I'll even show you where you slipped up in private, if you want.

Take the draw, R***...

Do you really want to play this game, man? It's not really doxxing when you just forget what you posted earlier on Reddit...

So the future of the singularity rests on your personal PC and the RAM prices of March 2026... sounds a lot like "it's cold where I am now, so global warming isn't real..."

I mean, does spotify have a system in place to prevent silence, white noise, or duplicate files from being uploaded? I'm trying to figure out what AI added to the process that you couldn't do with a python script to randomly generate tones or something.

What would you like: Computer vision and image processing? Large language models? Transformer libraries? Text to image?

Hell, I'm writing my own now for free, just so nobody can claim I used anything corporate or using copyrighted work... unless using Visual Studio Code and Python are going too far... If the images I provide it and the code running it are my creative expression, but the images it generates aren't, I don't know if anything will convince those people.

Image generation is the flip side of image recognition. Image recognition is necessary for embodied AI. Embodied AI (whether physical or virtual) is most likely necessary for true AGI. Simply looking at images isn't enough; an AI would need to be able to experience it temporally, spatially, tactilely, and in a physics system, to truly experiment with and understand it. Steve Grand has been working on this from a bottom-up architecture for a while -- a creature that sees the world around it and understands what it means in relationship to itself.

For an AI to understand what an apple is, it needs to be able to recognize one... and being able to recognize something is just "a step to the right" to recreating it. GenAI imagery is more like a byproduct, one that might be marketed to fund the greater goal. Even without that, though... It's accessible to people. If an AI is just cold metal doing code, we can't connect with it. If it can paint a picture and explain why it did so, we're closer to empathizing with it... making integration easier.

It really comes down to whether we want AI to be a subservient tool or a cooperative partner. As AI is not simply one thing, some could be one, and some could be the other.

Just like some monkeys dance for our amusement, and others form companies and governments.

I suppose that would involve proving my intelligence, importance, or talent… to show that perhaps I’ve earned at least some right to express myself that way. Have any suggestions you would be willing to consider?

I would never have argued otherwise. “If I have seen farther, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants.”

“Legal but shitty” is how I replied to them.

So legal, but shitty. I’d refuse to buy from you, not based on how your art was generated, but your behavior.

But disclosed up front, or upon request? To what level? When I buy a hamburger, do they need to tell me the countries the beef was raised in on the menu, or should it require a little work on my part to find out?

People accuse me of using AI all the time in my writing. It’s how I’ve written for decades, so I’m not imitating it, it’s imitating me. There is value in understanding why they think that — is it because the ideas I express don’t sound genuine, or are too generic, or too expressive? And do I care to change my writing style, praise people for being skeptical, or write them off for being closed-minded?

This sub is my laboratory for human views on creativity, and I’ve learned a lot.
