Australia must join a globally co-ordinated campaign to ensure the safe development of AI, which is reaching a critical phase that could have disastrous consequences.
This future is bleak, but not because of AI, but because of climate change, inflation, the increasing problem of pollution, plastics/nanoplastics etc.
But all this fear mongering about AI is just clickbait, statements taken out of context, and people talking about things which they’ve no idea about.
Don’t get me wrong, there are some real issues like legislation not keeping up with technology, deepfakes, intellectual property issues, job losses etc, but these issues are not insurmountable. At the very least, “AI” isn’t going to take over humanity and kills us, humanity will kill humanity well before AI can.
It’s not about it taking over, or killing us. It’s about it removing the humanity from humans. Cultures will be erased. Organic art and music will be forgotten because the will to create will be replaced by the ease of replication.
AI won’t kill us. It’ll just suck everything real and human out of us.
Did people stop painting because we invented cameras? Mediums will still have their purpose, and more artists may learn how to strive alongside new tools to do things they never could before.
Ultimately we will have people able to naturally dictate entire world’s and games and experiences to share, which they never could have accomplished alone.
It’s like empowering smaller artists with Disney money, as long as we make sure the technology isn’t exclusively held by closed proprietary systems. People keep praising adobe for their training data, but it’s it worth it to make sure only Adobe can have the tool, and you need to pay them absurd subscription fees to use it?
Creators will still create. They will just be empowered in doing so to the extent of their imagination.
