Steve Troughton-SmithHere’s your AI astonishment/nightmare fuel for today:
"TL;DR: single portrait photo + speech audio = hyper-realistic talking face video with precise lip-audio sync, lifelike facial behavior, and naturalistic head movements, generated in real time.”
Dane Deasy@stroughtonsmith this is awful. It should be illegal to create software to do this.
Johannes@danedeasy @stroughtonsmith this is really horrible to see, you are right.
How can any serious developer/scientist work in such a shit?
PS: The internet will be flooded with such easy to produce fake videos, this will end terrible for all of us.

The good thing i see coming from Ai-generated videos is the bankruptcy of Hollywood.

You're seriously suggesting it's a good thing to replace the artists and crafts-people who work in film with an AI that rips ideas from existing artists? You want to destroy the careers of writers, set designers, costume designers, directors, actors, key grips, carpenters and the other hundreds of professions employed in film production?
Why is that a good thing exactly? And do you think it stops with Hollywood? Seems very short-sighted to me.
I think it's 2 debates:
1. The environment
2. Art / Creativity & The result for the consumer
1. I think from an environmental point of view AI could be good in certain aspects such as:
smart & creative people allocating their time & skills towards tasks which are more related to solving problems which might help the environment.
And a reduction of resources used to produce things such as entertainment.
2. Very philosophical, i think all arguments here make equal sense.

2. A lot of answers exist for questions such as:
A. Is there a difference for people if #art is made by #AI, if they can't tell the difference.
B. Does humanity still need art even though there is more art than can be consumed in a lifetime?
C. Is it important for people to make art as a full-time occupation & would there still be progress in art if that happens?
D. Will AI be able to create original art & new art direction?
And many more

I think AI progress is very scary (it can already do most of the things i spent my professional life on learning better than me) on one side and endless opportunity on the other.
I think fear is a normal reaction to many technological breakthroughs (even though this one might be different), especially as we are not able to control it.
