I think the doom and gloom about the arts dying by generative Ai is a bit overblown. Yes, generative Ais can significantly outproduce humanity in the arts, sure. But in the end it’s never only about the final piece of music/canvas/etc it is about the person that did it.
I am very certain that when the output loses its value due to endless supply, as the article fears, we will return to other more human values in order to judge what we like
- cubefox 3y agoThe article isn't doom and gloom at all, it just predicts what will happen, not that it is bad. It sounds rather positive.
- HKH2 3y agoThe GP seems to agree with you. How can you construe the second paragraph as being negative?
- HKH2 3y ago> But in the end it’s never only about the final piece of music/canvas/etc it is about the person that did it. Nope. Good art stands on its own merits. The only useful thing about knowing who did it is that you can find more of it. > I am very certain that when the output loses its value due to endless supply, as the article fears, we will return to other more human values in order to judge what we like Wonderful. The less attention that people give to celebrities, the better.
- jaxboxer 3y agoOf course it is totally overblown. People have been saying "art is dead" for 150 years+. This is just the latest iteration of "art is dead". "This time it is different". As if no one has ever said that before. Marble sculpture had its time as the dominant medium of the day. These articles are no different than lamenting the demise of marble sculpture.
