The notion that AI can never surpass the creativity of man is naive. Right now, the only truly original thing man can create are other men i.e., children. And even that is under assault.
AI could end us.

no its not.
its microsoft excel.
its another tool in the tool chest, its not magic, and its not scary. whats scary is that some people can't tell the difference, and think for example, that code writing is about like actually typing code, and not, understanding and debugging code. and so AI can write all the code it wants to, but none of works, and because of that, now you need someone who already has the knowledge of how the code should work, debug it. which means, that person, might as well have just written the code in the first place, it would have saved time. the fact that some people can't seem to figure out there is a difference, is really telling to their understanding of what work actually is. like, writing code, or making pretty pictures is not about like actually typing, or actually coloring pixels, thats like 5% of the work. the actual work is understanding how it ****ing works. so you cant just replace the people doing the work, because nothing AI works without a human actually coming in, and you know, making it work.
AI is a tool. just like every other technological tool out there. its microsoft excel. its baffling to me what people must think of work, if they think AI is somehow in conflict with what they do for a living. how little they think of what work is, if they think AI can replace humans.
execs salivating at the concept that they could replace workers with AI just shows how poorly they understand there own business and what people do for work every day. like, they dont understand movies if they think that AI can make movies. they dont understand software engineering if they think AI will replace their engineers. and it shows how execs/the rich are not job creators, they are job destroyers. their purpose is to destroy jobs, and they love it, not create them. they dont even understand how the work gets done, on any real level, and just think everyone at work every day is doing something AI can replace, not you know, actual work.
people thinking like this ... are unintelligent or uninformed. simple as that.
also love the fact that as AI trains on AI content, it self destructs. so thats always a plus.
