I was watching this vid below by Rick Beato and started to ponder the following questions. Would love everyone's thoughts, etc. 

It's a three-pronged question, really: with the march of AI gathering pace all the time, what old school stuff do you see biting the dust/getting hit hard soon?... and do you think we should legislate against AI to slow or permanently restrict the impact long-term in these fields - especially in regards to monetisation? And, finally, do you think these advances will drive revivals of old school things AI can't touch (i.e. purely human endeavours - learning an instrument, going to live music (excluding Coldplay concerts with your paramour :D) similar to the case of vinyl records where people rediscovered a genuine appreciation for the supposed inferior tech over its more convenient, supposedly superior successor? 🤔

Vote & Discuss below. :thumbsup:

Example below: 100% AI generated music being monetised on Spotify etc.

Film seems like the obvious choice. Over the last 10 years or so the shift of movies to full animation or CGI has been dramatic. It feels like the days of good writing / good movies are over. Might as well be AI.

Have you never seen Terminator? :nyah:  Being facetious but it kind of scares me. The " Claude/Claudius Story" anyone? Then there's the one (have not verified, just heard - I know, I know) about the one that they threatened to pull the power on in email. Said AI saw email (of course. Nothing is private anymore. How long before they crack vpns hmmmm?), immediately threatened to disclose a sordid affair said person was having to prevent power loss.

My grandfather would have laughed if I had told him one day I will carry a phone, computer, calculator, TV, et.al...in a small box I could fit in my pants pocket.

Just because it hasn't happened yet, does it mean it won't?

AI won't make art obsolete, it can generate average stuff in many fields but people will get bored eventually.

At one point it should even lead to a very welcome renewal in Hollywood like @BoliDan says 🤞, in the end art in all its forms isn't about money.

A brandy producer described how he was using AI to help catalogue his many thousand barrels of product, entering tasting notes from each barrel and identifying who made the notes. He then asked AI to come up with a 50 year anniversary blend, with certain characteristics. He didn't ultimately use the blend but said AI came close.

I wonder if the same thing could be done with tobacco...

At it's core , AI is a tool. It is also the means to many possible ends, which IMO are not altruistic in nature.

You're a 100% right. A hammer has obvious uses for building and home repairs, but it can also be used to assault or commit crime. It's the user that determines the use of a tool, not the tool itself. Some of whom have nearly limitless resources and bad intentions.
