Why are people so much against AI?
It takes jobs away? As every progress humankind has made in history.
It copies artists styles? As artist already do. Artists always copy other artists, it's how art work since forever.
It copies other people's code? As coders already do. People copy blobs of code without understanding it all the time.
It produces less quality products? It depends on the people using it as with every other tool. People can produce shitty art and incredibly good art with the same tool, ex: ma paint.
I just don't get it. It reminds me so much to the beginning of digital art and people complaining about it, saying physically made art was the only real art.
As for myself I can't wait for AI to get even better. I have so many ideas about what me, or others could made with it. It's a tool with so much potential to throw it away out of fear.
The AI Revolution is going to be on the scale of the Agrarian and Industrial Revolutions in terms of change. People, on a whole, do not like change since it means uncertainty. Uncertainty about their careers as you mentioned, but also uncertainty about our very nature. We all like to think we are special, unique, and the pinnacle of life. If a computer can not only do what we do, but faster and better, than what does that make us?
That is why people are so adamant in trying to say AI cannot create art. Art is the one thing humans have over all other known forms of life and if we lose that... like I said: what does that make us?
What AI does is take artists' hard work and directly uses it to generate something using their style(s), without their permission.
Artist do that too. Haven't you notice that most popular songs sound very familiar to each other? And I assure you they do not ask for each other permission either. AI may do things faster, automatically and lower the skill requirements for the user but doesn't do anything artists weren't already doing.
