Some parameters we\u2019re putting on this episode. AI art wins a fine arts competition. * (8:08) An admittedly non-technical overview of how AI generally creates its work. Syntax versus semantics. * (17:43) AI creations as a starting point instead of the final product. Why the lack of semantics may distinguish what inspires humans as opposed to AIs. * (29:32) The positive impact of AI creativity, contrasted with the intellectual property and monetary concerns. * (37:02) The human-seeded meta-thought used by AI, and the inevitability of its adoption across multiple industries. * (47:26) After taking jobs, technology may also improve lives and push humanity forward. Automating simple tasks or \u201cshifting them left\u201d. * (54:45) The financial incentive to use AI art versus the status incentive to use human art. Hosts: Dan, Julia, Mary, Wayne Some of the sample AI art Dan made while playing around with an app\u2026 A man with two beards that\u2019s holding a third beard (stupid beard hog), Jesus with hot dogs for fingers, and\u2026OH NO! Its mini-Jesus off the ropes! What\u2019s that Lassie? Jesus is here? And he thinks our dogs are gnolls? And Gabriel is also a dog? OK, so now we\u2019ve got gnolls with underbites, some random people in the background, Jesus with John Wick levels of determination, and\u2026what the hell is that thing in the lower-right!? What the AI thought Gnarl should look like. I\u2019m totally going to stat this out and use it in a fantasy game.
