What is with these AI people pushing for AI to take over the creative arts. You know, the ones where people communicate with each other and discover they're not alone. Why do they want people to feel alone exactly?

@aspeed
My take is because deep down all the Tech Bros are sad little boys, scared of those who have real value and connection in this world. They also all appear to have Zero empathy.

Example of my theory. Zuck started Facebook to rate women at his college (Harvard) to appear cool to the rich "alpha bros" there.

@prasket I think the answer is there somewhere.

@aspeed - I recall reading (and it has held true in casual conversations with others on the topic) that people tend, generally, to think that AI is best-suited for tasks that they don't actually know very much about themselves. So someone who works with coding and computers and actually understands that stuff in a deep way, will see the errors that AI makes when imitating. So they don't think it's "ready" for that task yet. But they might NOT know much about drawing or writing, so they don't actually see all the errors the AI is making in that, and they think it's doing a good job. But when you talk to someone who makes art for a living, they can immediately peg the errors in AI written text or AI-made "art", so they don't think it's "ready" to do those tasks, and will suggest other things that they, in turn, don't know much about & suggest that AI is "better" at those things. But every time you ask an expert, they don't think AI can do the things they are an expert in.

So essentially, whatever a person thinks AI can do? It's something they kinda suck at.
