> Wonder if all these things will bring about a kind of cambrian explosion of creativity. Maybe, if memes are the peak of creativity. (And who am I to judge?) If we look at static images, the bar for distribution is zero and bar for creation is near zero since the arrival of these new AI tools – though it was circling zero before that. And what seems to be most widely shared is memes, in my feeds anyway. When Stable Diffusion landed, people giggled about the president of my country rendered in the style of Grand Theft Auto. After a week of that my feeds went right back to memes. Every human with an internet connection can draw like Picasso now, but it doesn't seem to matter. Because what we mostly seem to want is to take part in a conversation and get some validation, it seems to me.
