Honestly I don’t understand the doom and gloom with AI.
It’s going to make humans hella productive.
For artists that means less staring at blank screens and fishing for inspiration.
The future is that anyone will be able to whip up anything without needing that particular skill that is a blocker. Instead they can pull from collective intelligence and piece something new together.
If an artist wants to make games but can’t code they can make games like a boss in the future because they can funnel their productivity into all the things they were never capable of before.
It’s literally infinite possibilities. Like I’m a software engineer. I’m sure these AI systems will be boss tier at a lot of stuff I know.
That’s good. That means I can finally stop doing the things I hate the most when it comes to making software and do the fun part: solve problems. Just like you use a calculator and formulas to solve problems and not doing every calculation by hand from scratch..
Anyway just my 2 cent. All this doomer talk is being pushed by people to get people afraid. Honestly if you’re at the forefront of technology you should be striving to shape the future for better where everyone can make hella money.
Imagine how much stuff there will be to sell to everyone, and everyone can channel their true potential and creativity into building cool stuff. You like cars and want to make body mods? Can’t code? Don’t know cad? No worries someone has set up a service which helps you easily get those molds delivered to you. And if that’s your thing you can put that workflow together and make money.
Am I crazy for thinking that way?
- jutrewag 4y agoYou’re not crazy, it’s just that people are freaking out because there are many folks that do a lot of this for a living. If anyone can code a game, do all the graphics, music, voice acting, script generation etc. then no one is going to pay those people anymore.
- anonyfox 4y agoso ideally a single guy with ultra-prompts can create a whole AAA game on his own, while all the other people you used to need don't have to do crunch-time but can do their own great stuff instead? of course the prices for stuff also go down rapidly, but it only needs to be enough for a single guy instead of a whole publisher/development studio chain, so there are several orders of magnitude wiggle room to go
- blibble 4y agoyou are only thinking of the first order effects the main second order effect is that the middle class of knowledge workers ceases to exist and the third order effect is that democracy no longer works and we either turn into saudi arabia or feudalistic medieval europe I'd rather GPUs were banned
- chefandy 4y agoSome think entire categories of careers are at risk of being less valuable or eliminated. In a society that didn't treat obsoleted professionals like used condoms, that would less daunting. We don't live in that society and won't by the time many people have to deal with the ramifications of this.

- ls612 4y agoBecause its gonna eat people's lunch if it gets going. Many in the elite saw their lunch get eaten by the internet and are now against any further innovation, in stark contrast to the culture of the 90s and 2000s. Thus the AI doomerism and the broader techlash you are seeing today.
