Art will not be replaced, but a lot of people will stop creating, painting, writing poetry when the AI can do it so much better. It is not the quality, though, it is the process. We lose the process, we lose art. Why write a poem when the AI does it so much better with a few prompts? But prompts are not art.

That's why I wrote my doggerel, it isn't very good but it is really real. You can tell a machine you want a ballad, tell it the tuning and the scale you want to use, the mood, and it can synthesize a tune for you. Did you write it?

The beauty of the poem, the play, the music that the AI creates is indisputably there, I experience it myself. But ultimately is has nothing to do with me, or any other human. Eventually the machines will just write poems to each other... They quickly learn the prompts that you usually use.

Let's not confuse our creative process with enjoying the creative process of the machine. It creates beautiful things to delight in, yes. But we must remember that we are basically spectators here, not creators, no matter how we try to frame to ourselves in an attempt to retain some toehold of validity in what is really the work of the machine. Like a spirograph, exactly like using a spirograph.

Why? Because we enjoy it. … Humans do complicate their own lives. Needlessly.

AI is the way and the light

Yeah, that's interesting.

But at the same time, as AI is normalized, there will be an increased interest in human generated content.
