I have a hard time taking anyone talking about AI regulations seriously. Unregulated AI is already out there and you don’t get the ghost back into the bottle, it’s already working beyond all regulations and laws. Deep fake porn and the environmental cost, both seam to be things we need to accept, I don’t see them being worse than Crypto mining energy waste (which thankfully is slowing down) or already existing porn on the internet. Deep fakes make it even possible to have a deniability claim, once your real porn got out there, which is a positive thing as you could always claim it to be fake, reducing the possibility of blackmailing.
AI art, music are the things that will be replaced to large extend, as the results we have already are really good. Now human art will still be desired by some, but it will become rare and people will do this as hobby from now on. Thing is, good AI art as of now still needs a bit of a technical understanding and time generating, much less than before, but I don’t think this can fully go away, even if you add the names of an artist to a prompt. You need to understand a composition and the technical background.
Hard to predict the future, but creating something unique, the AI doesn’t fully know yet, is still challenging. Stuff like Stock photos, (thankfully) will be replaced, as anyone can just add prompts to generate generic images, and in future videos.
The writing part is the most concerning, as most nations lack an independent news outlet. For example in Germany we have the Rundfunkbeitrag, which pays for state independent news. It’s pretty resistant to fake news and as neutral as it gets, compared to the commercial news out there, who’s goal it is to generate outrage to sell clicks.
No matter what, there’s going to be a time, where too many people are not up to date yet, but we’ll also have enough people able to manipulate context via AI. People will need time to adjust.
Only after this time of unrest most people will understand what’s true and important.
Maybe it will have unintended effects we don’t know yet. What if conspiracy completely dies out as anyone can generate conspiracy text or anti-conspiracy text, making them all look like fools?
What if we need more people fact checking and image/videos for error checking? What if we need more people who can understand the difference between a generic script and a good one? It’s like with machines, people used to do all the stuff by hand, now a machine does it, but we need more people who fix and control the machines. Yes it’s on a whole new level, the unemployment rate might be hit the hardest by this. The more we automatize stuff, the more we need to talk about UBC, unconditional basic income.
