The AI Battle
This very much requires acceptance of the worse-is-better model. That &quot;beautiful&quot; drawing of an an astronaut riding a horse is aesthetically... crap. It may take a person 5 hours to paint or draw that, but, arguably, a person wouldn&#x27;t.<p>GPT-3 might generate a novel, but, generally speaking the prose is jarring and awful to read, because there is no intent (danger: philosophically loaded word) behind it. It&#x27;s all automated collages and they all feel... cheap.<p>The world is beginning to discover that polyester isn&#x27;t very good. It&#x27;s bad for the skin, bad for the environment, and terrible for human health in general (microplastics generated from washing polyester give a medium for increases in algal blooms in coastal waters... etc.). It is cheap, but we&#x27;re going to figure out it isn&#x27;t good, and stop making or buying it (I hope).<p>DALL-E and GPT-3 are the polyester of design and creative construction. They&#x27;re cheap; aesthetically uncomfortable. We&#x27;ll turn to humans for high-quality design until we actually get AGI, and those systems are not a path to AGI.
