Maybe I am late to recognize that, but with recent developments I get the feeling that AI and machine learning are really getting somewhere now. If it goes forward with the current trajectory, then this could change the world just like radio, television or the internet did.

Those things advanced average people’s reach. This is not doing that.

  Don't we already have useful (YMMV) models that can run on an average gaming desktop ?

    Imagine in the future when we will have AI ways of doing things locally on our smartphones, how would this be similar to radio/tv/internet changing everything?

  How so, isn't that exactly what it is doing to an even greater degree? Those who would never have the capability of doing something are now able to do something they only dreamed about. It is exactly the inverse of previous advancements, in that those already at the top don't get nearly as much benefit as those at the bottom since I will be able to copy your skill no matter how good you are and reproduce it infinitely.

  I think you're wrong. These AIs are available to everyone. So anyone can create studio quality audio by clicking around. If anything, it potentially puts big studios out of business. Itunes and and Spotify and Youtube become the distribution channels.

  The internet broke down the barriers to content distribution. AI will break down the barriers to content creation. The future will not be "look I made an AI song that millions of people are listening to!" but will be "AI create and play me a song of my favorite rapper overlaid onto of my favorite techno genre" and you'll just listen to it yourself.

    Today, right now, you can have a language model create lyrics to "AI killed the Internet star," a TTS model sing it in the style of The Buggles, and a single channel blind source separation model replace the voice track. Tomorrow, you will just talk to your voice assistant running an action transformer to have it done for you.
