When you see ai-related stories just remember: we're currently living through what, in another 10 or 20 years, will be remembered as the takeoff of AI. Wherever it goes, either heavily regulated or widespread, AI is only going to get exponentially better and it won't just be artists crowing about losing their jobs to it.
More reason to focus on changing to a society that doesn’t work for the sake of working instead of fighting AI.
Except, those are in charge of the AI, just want mass unenployment, to lose our bargaining power, and to work 3 jobs just to eat.
Even the supposed "adapting to AI" for artists is just "buy our stocks and trade them".
Damn, sounds like instead of bitching about AI we should be chopping some heads.
Yeah just a small bit of killing will do the trick!
The convenient thing about a handful of people controlling all the wealth is it means there are only a handful of people who need to be liberated of their wealth!
Not necessarily. Generative AI hasn't been advancing as much as people claim, and we are getting into the "diminishing returns" phase of AI advancement. If not, we need to switch gears in our anti-AI activism
Yep. IMO it'll be kinda like VR. AI will sort of plateau for awhile until they find a new approach and then the hype will kick up again. But the current approach won't scale into true AI. It's just fundamentally flawed.
hmm idk... the only real reason vr has playeued so hard is because of the high barrier to entry. the tech is fine, but there's not that many good games because it's expensive and not many own it.
I'd argue that ai will continue to see raid growth for a little while. the core technology behind LLMs may be plateauing, but the tech is just now getting out in the world. people will continue to find new and creative ways to extend its usefulness and optimize what it's currently capable of.
basically, back to the vr example. people are gonna start making "games" for it. did one's free, and everyone is hungry for it. I'm putting my money on human creativity for now...
This, VR and AI are completely different beasts

It will start to get wild when it’s attorneys, paralegals, accountants, actuaries, software developers, designers, journalists, engineers, medical technicians… what’s left after that? Physical labor, skilled mechanical labor, politics and religion?
automating politics shouldn't be that hard. also Religion controlled by ai has huge potential. so physical labor it is for us meatbags
Machine vision and robotics are advancing quickly too.
People would go for it online, but in person, you still need a convincing public speaker. AI could write all their speeches though (and I'm people are on that!)

Again, using audio AI to copy a real voice is kinda dumb. Like using image AI to draw real actors, playing characters... instead of just drawing the fucking character.
This tech would let one actor do all the characters. Like how audiobooks work - except you'd get the actor's performance in the character's voice. Stephen Fry doing Snape (behave) may sound like Alan Rickman, but only if Alan Rickman is how Snape's supposed to sound.
The only reason for him to sound exactly like that is if that's what people already think he sounds like. New characters, or newly-adapted characters, can sound however you want. This technology will let anybody play them.
So hire someone good.
I could really use that for dungeon mastering; NPC voices (esp. accents) are the hardest part for me.
You don't have to be the world's most accomplished voice actor with 500 unique voices in your repertoire to be a good DM. Even if you just have a default "NPC" voice that's different than your DM-ing voice, most players are fine with that. No need to bring in bullshit AI into the game. DnD players got along fine for decades without it.
I'm saying that it would be nice to enhance my voices, not that I need 500 voices to be a good DM, or that we can't get by without it.
Just because people did fine in the past doesn't mean we can't try new things to improve the experience for our players.
Real-time might be asking a lot.
So I guess, give it a year.

This reminds me I'm kinda surprised EA hasn't released a Jennifer Hale voicebot by now, marketing it as "your own personal Cmdr Shepard assistant".
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favourite comment on Lemmy

You forget a thousand voice chatbots every day, how about you make sure this is one of them...
Fuck it. AI isn't going to go away. Companies are going to keep putting these voicebots of famous people out. The only response is to splinter the entertainment industry. Get SAG and the WGA on the horn. They fucked up the negotiations with the MPAA and didn't outright ban AI. Those unions need a new deal.
Yep, sure, let's just get WGA, who spent the last year and a half protesting and negotiating contracts, on the horn to do that exact thing over again. I'm sure they'll get right on that!
AI voices sound like shit
