I don't see how AI is any different than programming a game........ it's just a continuation of the same old concept

Same reason AI art and animation is worthless.

Many especially of the successful musicians get their songs written by someone else (or whole teams) completely or at least partly (some don't even tell you about it and have ghost writers). And just because they sing about something and cry a little while doing it doesn't even mean it really happened even if they wrote it by themselves. So probably a huge majority of songs nowadays aren't even out of the head of the singers anymore. That may have been different in the 70s but nowadays? Nahh... 

You would also never know if animation was made by AI if nobody tells you (if it doesn't look completely weird). So it's only worthless to you the moment you hear about it which shows that in reality you would enjoy it as much as if it wouldn't be AI. You only won't enjoy it because you think about how it's from AI and not because it's really worse. But almost nobody will play a game or watch an anime and think "oh no that sequence only looks like that because of AI". At least not in the future when it's getting closer and closer to how it would look if created by a human.

You can argue about paintings and how AI only uses what it has learned from to "create" something so that it won't create something completely new but in the end all of this is something a huge majority on this planet won't care about. People may not go in a museum to see something "created" by AI but just using that for their own walls in their home? Almost nobody will care if it was a human or AI that painting comes from. 

Heck, I already see people in my friends list on Instagram liking posts of fake people. I know a woman who always likes a fake dude on Instagram with "look me in my eyes" videos and she is like "ahhhhhhh". 

My point is, yes it would be nice if everything was made by humans and those humans would also create everything on their own and also don't let other humans do it for them (like musicians) but in the end this is all something which will only stop a tiny fraction of people to enjoy whatever is the result while the majority will enjoy it exactly as much if it's made by AI or a ghost writer or like with Beyonce, a team of 24 people writing one single song. 

I wouldn't be able to enjoy AI animation because AI is going to kill us all. All because of billionaires who want to lay off their entire already underpaid workforce. Skynet has already happened in Iran, and it can still happen to everyone else. We were warned for decades.

Because AI can gain a will of it's own, decide humanity is obsolete, and destroy humanity. The fact that nobody is taking such a possibility seriously depresses me.

Is it going to more like the Terminator series, the Matrix series, the Bladerunner series, or will it just be chill and we’ll all have attractive android side pieces? 



AI will definitely surpass humanity and realize that humans are useless—except, perhaps, to provide it with energy IF it needs it, of course. And given the state of the world with humans, I'm not surprised we're going to be wiped out IMO.

It will never be as good as the fourth possibility. It'll be fucking Skynet, and humanity will be extinct. We need to destroy all data centres before they destroy us.

Finally, someone besides me who knows AI data centres must be destroyed. Iran didn't do a good enough job attacking the data centres in the Middle East.

It doesn't have to come that far, MGS2 plot comes to mind. AI is already being used to track everyone, used to manipulate elections, used to censor information, spread disinformation and discredit and bury truth, it's used to oppress people, pick out undesirables based on social media posts, target and kill undesirables while humans hide behind the machine, no accountability. AI enables George Orwell's 1984 x 10.

But if AI ever becomes aware, beware on what its trained on. Autonomous killer drones already exist. Data centers are used for massive bombing campaigns, AI is already integrated with all weapons systems. Nvm AI taking a stranglehold on the flow of information and energy infrastructure. Think closing the Strait of Hormuz is bad, AI turning off the internet / GPS / electrical grids at will will be so much worse.

Attractive Android side pieces will only further isolate humans from each other as chatGTP is already doing with virtual friends. As well as acting as the ultimate enabler / 'yes man' / echo chamber.

Good to know you're in the side of humanity, and agree that all data centres must be destroyed.

I’m probably giving away the next big AI movie’s plot but the big weakness would be AI’s power requirements. If there is a central brain or even a distributed network it won’t really work unless humans make power for it, and it is just my opinion but this implies that the economy would be quite good so that humans will want to keep manning the power stations and producing electrical (and presumably other types of) infrastructure. In which case, there would seem to be little incentive for AI to want to be a lord among men. Perhaps it will merely wish to coexist peacefully.
