There's at least a few games sites that seem to get their articles from Reddit. "Gamer finds Hidden feature in Skyrim after 10 years 😱" kind of "articles ". It got to the point where there's a minor running joke on The Skyrim Reddit that a post will soon appear on Gamerant. AI could easily do that job. As mr hacksaw mentioned, I think a lot of that is already being done by AI. these days when I search for information I'm pretty sure that about 80% of the web pages returned are written by AI. They'll all seem pretty good until suddenly half way down there'll be something weird that seems out of place. |

Come on, how many songs really have good lyrics. And that a songwriter is not going to say good things about a machine that creates lyrics in his style is kind of unsurprising.
But yeah these lyrics are bullshit, I agree. Like most song lyrics.

Yeah if you are looking for information about recent products or technologies, you'll stumble over a lot of AI generated blurbs. It's really a shame what the www has become. It's also getting harder and harder to get good google search results. Nowadays even search results for specific code stuff is sometimes filled with copycat crap and SEO bullshit, and stackoverflow is only on page 2.
I think at some point, if things progress like this, people will start to use hand-curated search sites again.

Yeah, There was one website that used to come top every time I searched for any programming problem, and it was basically just copied page snippets from Stackoverflow, but without half the context. Seems to have disappeared recently so maybe their search results got de-prioritised. For articles, I feel like AI has a bit of a concentration problem. It's like they get half way and then get bored and start looking out the window and their text meanders off into weird half-related ideas. |

Yeah, it's pretty easy to spot, actually, because the information density is very low in those AI generated texts, and like you say, the red line is often not very straight.

Again, creatives moaning and fearing this tech are completely missing the point of how useful it can be to them. We use it to give us a benchmark for unoriginality when working on campaigns etc, plus also again, mundane tasks that don’t require creativity. These tools can help creatives do better more original work, and give them more time to focus on it.

I dunno, it's very easy to become extremely disheartened when my attempts to draw something can be done better by AI.
It's all very well saying it creates a benchmark for unoroginality but when my own work doesn't surpass that, well it says a lot about my work and makes me think what's the fucking point.
Just speaking as a hobbyist these days, but I do understand why a lot of creatives are concerned.

And if it doesn't make you happy, get into marketing like kal. |

I do try, normally get nowhere staring at the page for 30 minutes. But that's largely a moot point, it's not my job anymore.
But when I did work in the creative industry, most of my income did come from jobs where frankly the client wasn't looking for originality.
A lot of illustrators etc make a substantial part of their income on those boilerplate jobs, if those tasks are basically removed it might give them more time to follow their creative passion, but that wouldn't necessarily pay the rent.

Luckily chat GPT can make them a pretty sweet resume to get a new job.
Unfortunately it'll also make that resume for 1000s of other people.

That's been the cause of many faint glimmers of hope, followed by "not this fucking site again!" |

Apparently an outsized chunk of development of chatgpt was spent on ensuring it wouldn't spout racist shit. Giving an LLM the entire Internet is guaranteed to result in nazi robots.

You’d think if it saw the entire internet we’d get naughty stepsister robots.

Has anyone had much luck getting onto the new AI-powered version of Bing with ChatGPT? I signed up to the waitlist a few hours after it was announced, also did the other options to get it quicker, set Microsoft defaults on my PC and also got the Bing App.
But still nothing so far

It's a Twitter thread (sorry!) with ChatGPT-powered Bing going off the rails…

That can't be real, can it?
If it is I think they've tried to catch up with chatgpt by getting one of the engineers teenage kids to write the responses and hope the higher ups at bing won't notice.

It’s real. You can also break ChatGPT pretty easily by asking it to roleplay as something else, then all the bias and protection barriers go out the window and it can say some truly horrific shit.

Well that makes it even more frustrating that it's always at capacity when I try to log on!

On the one hand I want to thank AI for generating my Avatar. Pretty darn impressive.
On the other hand, I'm a little worried by the fact it was the only one it generated that didn't have skimpy boob 'armour'. I guess it has learned well from all the character art already out there.

Didn't he basically say in that video why he's not going to be out of a job?
Chat GPT still fucked up because he wrote down what he wanted wrong, fucked up again because the original documentation was wrong.
There's still humans in the process and they will still be need to fix the errors.

So best case scenario is one human keeps his job to just keep the AI doing a team of twenty people's jobs inline.

I didn't watch the video. But that's surely the inevitable future for certain industries.

Same thing was said about the invention of the computer blah blah.
Maybe this time it's true but history shows every time these advancements occur more jobs are created than destroyed.
