[QUOTE="Blue, post: 9229258, member: 20564"] Okay, I am sure to get some angry replies to this, but here we go. "Technology" has been replacing human need to spend time on things since the very first. And by very first, I mean when humans didn't need to spend every waking moment searching for calories and could begin to branch out. But we've come really far from there, so now it's a detriment, right? What are we protecting? 40 hour work weeks, when the worlds needs can be done with less? Really, we're incensed because it's encroaching on creative matters, which we considered "human". And because it's impacting people we know or want to support. Even though we didn't storm the gates when garbage trucks started with automated can emptying or other jobs lost to technology. Everything I'm saying is separate from how unethical the training material is - that absolutely needs to be addressed and quickly. But so technology is extending into yet another sector. It's been doing it your entire life. Yes, the people in that sector will be disrupted. Again, same as your entire life. And these create new opportunities, both directly like the need for more SME editors, for people using this as tools just like digital artists right now have tools like digital brushes that make their creations less labor intensive, and just allowing people to be people. There are times you want to go out to eat and have a meal professionally made for you, and there's a time you want to throw chicken nuggets into the microwave. AI art and writing is here. That can't be put back into the bag. We can and should feel bad for those who's careers have been disrupted, just like we should for everyone who's jobs have been automated or replaced by advances in technology. But just raging against something that isn't going away does nothing. Focus on what we can - being kind to those displaced, making sure that strong laws are put in place requiring the training material to be ethically sourced, and looking for what new opportunities this can bring, what does this open up to us as a whole?
