My understanding is most of you are anti AI? My only question is....why? It is the coolest invention since the Internet and it is remarkable how close it can resemble actual consciousness. No joke the AI in sci fi movies is worse than what we actually have in many ways!

Don't get me wrong, I am absolutely anti "AI baked into my operating system and cell phone so that it can monitor me and sell me crap". If that's what being Anti AI is.....to that I say Amen.

But simply not liking a privacy conscious experience or utilization of AI at all? I'm not getting it?

Acceptable quality is a bit of a stretch in many cases... Especially with the hallucinations everywhere in generated text/code/etc.

Most of that gets solved with an altered prompt or trying again.

That is less of an issue as time goes on. It was just a couple years ago that the number of fingers and limbs were a roll of the dice, now the random words in the background are alien.

AI is getting so much money dumped into it that it is progressing at a very rapid pace. an all AI movie is just around the corner and it will have a style that says AI, but could easily be mistaken with a conventional film production that has a particular style.

Once AI porn gets there, AI has won media.

Eh, I at least partially disagree. I've noticed some of the modern models (such as Claude 4.0) have started to hallucinate more than previous models. I know you're talking about image generation, but still. I can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe it's cause the models are beginning to consume their own slop.

maybe it’s cause the models are beginning to consume their own slop.

That's going to be a huge issue indeed because synthetic data contains bias and it's proven that produced biased models.
