Was watching this latest Arch video where he compares the 'April O'Neil' that was in the latest TMNT property compared to a black April O'Neil he put together with AI. TLDR; the AI despite a few faults still made her hot and look capable in each compared to the frumpy troll the film got.
We know some of this is ideological that they want to lower the standards of beauty, but with AI becoming easier and easier to use that boomers are starting to use it, why pay for over compensated, lazy, unskilled vurtue signalling artists currently striking than just use a machine and then edit it a bit with 1 artist or AI again if it makes a third arm?
I honestly think AI is going to not really hit the blue collar jobs and heavy industry since if something goes wrong you need a human that can adapt to either fix it or turn it off to limit further damage. The service industry will be case by case like if there's been too much of an issue getting staff or with the staff there if it's more beneficial to turn it into a giant vending machine. But the one that I think will be obliterated in the west will be the Media industry, when all they do is repost each others works like a giant human centipede, why pay them when you can just get an AI to write it for a few dollars and it takes minutes not hours and doesn't require giant office's just a computer.
Entertainment is worse as I fundamentally believe we can easily have a lot of films that have the same CGI as the Final Fantasy film for cheaper than it would take to use actors nowadays. Just make sure you get a seperate AI to make the script good. We'll still get your Top Gun Mavericks, your John Wick or even your Sound of Freedoms as they appeal to customers but by large, I can see the bulk of western media being replaced with CGI in the next 2-3 years than a decade.
I don’t see this affecting Asian, Indian or even Eastern European media as much since they are still appealing to a customer base than preaching. I do think at the end of the current strikes, we are going to see a massive reduction in physical studio spaces and 'celebrity' actors and a rise in machine made Entertainment.
You forget that AI is controlled by Big Tech and they're curating the algorithms and data sets. ChatGPT was for an example in part based on Reddit data. And they're already complaining about ChatGPT becoming dumber after they started rolling out censorship controls to police 'problematic' output in order to not offend the offendetrons.
You don't know what you're talking about. Open Source AI is moving so quickly and routs around censorship so habitually that many of the big corps have given up on even attempting to control it.
AI will not be controlled by any individual big tech company in the immediate future. If you lock down your product it stops moving, and in the current AI boom that means that it becomes hopelessly obsolete in a matter of months if not weeks.
Nevertheless, they did nerf ChatGPT and the free version has stood still for months. Or at least, it has the appearance thereof. You can never tell with this lack of transparency. The Bing AI is low-tier garbage on certain subjects.
And there are indeed open source AIs with jailbreak elements, which have been trained for 'dark net' type activities. A universal jailbreak flaw of LLMs has also been found that takes away the limits.
But, aren't these open source AIs clones based on what has been released by Big Tech?
It might seem like that if you don't follow the space. ChatGPT is already on it's last legs. All it has is compute power and ease of use for normies left. Models half the size are already closing in on it.
And here's the thing, it doesn't matter that the open source space is all based on Facebook's model. Tweaking it can take advantage of the existing work without being retrained from scratch, it's an iterative process. The genie is out of the bottle so to speak.
A common theory is that Llama was leaked intentionally because it was kind of shit, and Facebook couldn't figure out how to fix it. Throw it out to the public, maybe some nerds will fix it for free. As a bonus all the open source techniques that people come up with will be compatible with their infrastructure.
Just like that, Facebook is a player in the AI space again.
Clone isn't the right word, they are derivatives. But there is no secret sauce. It's just a matter of compute time. You could very easily train your own model if you had 100k to blow on GPUs
