It would be difficult for me to give up and turn to automating much of the process. I spend the time because I enjoy doing it. It's the only thing I can zone out on for several hours and completely lose track of time. Again, I truly don't care what others are doing. Any time I see a crowd running towards something, I'm out. That's all the proof I need that it won't be for me.
I can see it be useful, especially to cut costs in entertainment production, like gaming development for instance. I didn't like those gigs anyway...
This space might be the only thing I have left so whatever. Make the best of it I guess.
You're right, there is a use-case for it but I think those producing it with the click of a button and then sitting back thinking, look what I have done are missing the point. My father made his living as an artist and to me, human-made art will always be the only art.
I get it. This is my only social media and if I didn't write here I'd revert to writing purely for myself. I mean, I write here for myself but others see it. I'm working on a book at the moment, something the blockchain will never see, and that's very rewarding. No Ai permitted though. :)
I can agree with that; missing the point. For a personal brand like what I have, I don't see the point at all. And I took a thorough look into monetizing AI and especially when combined with NFT, and because of some shit going on, experts recommend one should talk to a lawyer first, to work out all the kinks. Why would I want that in my life... ?
I'm all about: Fuck the middleman. I'll do it myself.
And I still love writing. When I started up here, I thought writing would be my main focus, until I looked around and noticed art. But most of it was just photos of paintings and doodles. So I went into business mode and put on my entertainment goggles. And the rest is history... lol
Human beings can be so creative, it's what has got us where we are today, although it's questionable as to whether we're in a good place. That aside, our creativity, cognitive thought, has been what stands us apart from the beasts. Now people want to relinquish it? Yeah, pointless and probably quite dangerous. Just my opinion and what do I know? I'm not an AI super computer, just a flawed human.
An interesting (human) history, Me likey.
Was having a bit of a conversation about that under my previous post. I've been thinking about this stuff a lot. I can't see it stripping away much from people. Some people, sure. I'm not too concerned. AI images, whatever, I'm not too interested. That's just a toy. There are several other things in this world that could use the help though. Especially getting off this planet.
