    It’s definitely cool from that standpoint. Don’t get me wrong. But the output from image and video AI usually doesn’t impress me all that much. It’s technically impressive but the output doesn’t surpass what a competent human can do in terms of composition, creativity, and depth. And I know the fear is that eventually it will, but I adamantly believe it never will.

      It will depend on how much investment they put into the development and research they do with AI. Because this is a race and for now nobody wants to step on the brakes until there is another winter for AI.

        I think it will be missing whatever you want to call the human spirit for a long time. It’s missing in writing and it’s missing in pictures. The technical ability is advancing at an impressive pace, but at the end of the day I find things generated by AI to just feel empty and dull.

        I still use them and enjoy them and want to see how far they can go, but I think there is an upper bound that is below human journeyman level until we create a vastly different sort of AI that might surpass sentience and perhaps even be considered sapient. And we’re currently far short of sentient.

      Also if you actually use AI image gens over a long period you’ll find that it creates the same thing over and over. Same poses, same angles.

      It all gets very samey, which makes sense
