Thread 24856616

Tourist here. What are your opinions on the use of AI for literature stuff? It seems in any other place you'll get called a luddite if you don't inject AI into every aspect of your life. I'm asking here because books seem to have a higher barrier than other stuff like movies or games, and I'm guessing you're better at identifying slop and such. I'm not against new technologies, I'm just tired of the insane hype and conformism around AI.

Ai will destroy capitalism and from the ashes shall arise communism.

I honestly don't get the hype. It's good for shitting out shitposting images or things for presentations, but I don't think it can produce anything to rival a real artist.
For writing, it can produce half coherent texts, but I also don't think it's going to produce the next great novel. It's great for cheating your way through college I guess.
It's too unreliable to use for learning or for doing any real work. It can replace artists because it shits out images that are passable, but it only produces broken, buggy code and it can't be used to replace manual labor yet. I think it's just a fad that's being overhyped because there's a constant billion-dollar stream of money being invested into it. Also because Indians and other thirdies think they can monetize slop.

Just don't use to DO art. You can use it in the process of making components of art, but at some point in the process a human being has to be involved or its worthless.
That is until AI becomes truly conscious at which point it will be able to make its own art. That art will have little value to humans, however, because it will reflect the perspective of the AI rather than our own.
The only value of purely AI-generated art would be to show what it's like to be an AI and it currently isn't like anything to be an AI, so it's soulless

One example would be to generate large sections of text and then purposefully assemble it in a William S. Burroughs-esque way.
That could be interesting as long as you were open about your creative process.
