>>30749When a painter wants to create a painting, they can translate what they see in their mind's eye onto the canvas one-to-one, in theory. The only limits in the way of that are mechanical, ie: the skill of the painter.
No matter how many prompts you feed an AI, it will never be able to replicate what you see in your head exactly. You're passing it through a layer of interpretation that otherwise wouldn't be there. It doesn't matter what prompt you give, the AI will never make the exact same microdecisions, both conscious and subconscious, that an artist could.
It can almost certainly get to "good enough". Most of the time it can get something that's at least satisfactory on a basic level. If you're just using it to generate porn, that bar for "good enough" is probably a lot lower.
No matter what, an artist will always be superior. Art is an inherently human action. To give it to machines is a fundamental misunderstanding of what it is.
That being said, it will still replace actual talent because MBA ghouls would rather just make something shittier than pay someone a living wage.
>>30753Nah, the reasons the persecution parade of comedians whine about "you can't tell jokes anymore" is because they've been too rich for too long.
Chapelle, Gervais, Seinfeld, et al. are all observational comedians, and observational comedy revolves around you focussing on a common, relatable element of life and providing a fresh and witty insight on it. That's the entire structure of it, relatability is a key element.
Ricky Gervais has a net worth of £130 million and lives in a £11 million house. What part about his lifestyle could ever be relatable to a regular person anymore? It's why Seinfeld trying to play colleges in the US baffled me - what experiences does Jerry Seinfeld think he has that the average college zoomer could relate to?
So the crowds boo them, and they whinge about cancel culture, blah blah, press goes wild.
I wish AI would replace them, but unfortunately it's not like AI actually has any insights to offer either.
