In my job I spend a fair amount of time with both smart people who are incredibly skeptical of AI and its potentials and other equally intelligent people who are wildly optimistic. One way I square this circle is accepting that we all tend to overestimate what can happen in the short term and underestimate what can be accomplished over the long run.
The use cases I'm most interested in are around creativity. People often talk about ideas that look like a button that makes a finished video and shares it on your behalf, but that's not what this looks like. People have taste and emotional resonance that AI can't replicate. Instead, for creators, AI will show up as series tools of tools that make it easier for more people to be more creative.
Imagine a tool that translates your audio into another language and syncs your lips so you can grow in another country. Imagine an AI that gives you insight about the patterns of what's resonated and what's not about what you've shared in the past. Imagine one that reads over a brand deal contract and gives you an objective take on how favorable the terms are. AI doesn't need to disintermediate the creator. If we're in, we can find all sorts of ways for the technology to empower creatives.
@mosseri I rather imagine tool that will protect my voice and face via some sort of adversarial patch against missuse if i am livestreaming, caling, etc. I also imagine tools that will filter or label Ai generated content on my social feeds since i don't want to interact with Ai content. Not that there can't be some good Ai generated content but at the moment we are witnessing mostly bad one if not malicious.
@igisho @[email protected] I think a lot of people will probably also want to be able to filter AI generated content out of their feeds, but it’s not clear to me that anyone is going to be able to effectively catch all AI content as it’s getting harder and harder to detect as the models improve.
@mosseri @[email protected] i allways thaught that this is bigtechs competitive edge against OS federated networks. Same as Google is best at filtering your email. Imho: social nets of future has to be best of filtering unwanted trash from your social feeds. Also since EU Ai ACT and DSA you guys will be forced to label ai content anyway.
