The REAL Fight Over AI Art

Two things. One, the reason that some people feel this is somehow different from the technology that has come before. Is that most jobs that are replaced by automation and AI are more technically inclined skills. These are more artistically inclined skills that are being replaced. Not that I see that as much of a difference, but I think a lot of people associate creativity with something very human. To have that idea challenged is hard for a lot of people to swallow. Two, I don't think people realize where this is going. We are looking at this tech and thinking about the things we have now that will be replaced. But think a little longer term, and it is not hard to see this turning into a system that can literally build worlds on the fly. Think about it. Think of an AI that can build any picture on the fly that it wants. That's where we are now. The next step (months away) is to build a video of whatever we want. The next logical step after that is for the AI to build entire worlds on the fly of whatever you want to experience (think VR) for as long as you want to experience. We won't be building art then. We will be building whole worlds of whatever we want.
