the world today

 I don't know if I should laugh or cry at this point. 

There's been an ongoing uproar about AI and all of its capabilities in the world today. They create lies. They do. They are not some form of intelligence you should rely on though. GPT was made to collect data online. Any form of data.

The whole AI art creation was not made to be monetized. It was made for fun. Just good fun. Making things you can laugh about and move on with your life. Not making art and claiming it to be something you made like artists do. They create things that are not real. Things that are borderline lies,fictional just for fun. So, artists are having a hard time with these so called AI claiming themselves as "art". It's not. It's made for fun. Shit gets annoying when you put something online and it gets stolen and used without your knowledge. That's just downright plagiarism. There is no control over it. Once you put it out there, who knows who finds it and if you are lucky, you will be able to track it all down and send in a C & D. If you don't, you will never know.

It gets worse with music too. The creation of Voice Cloning has opened up a whole new world of problems. People saying things they don't. It's crazy. Again,there is no control over it.

Deepfake has created a new problem now too. Big ass production companies no longer care to have actors come in as cameos anymore coz they can AI generate the actor's faces into the film now. The actors are definitely throwing a fit about it. It ain't my problem though. I like to filter through what i watch. Most of the time, mainstream shit don't interest me one bit.

So yeah, welcome to a whole new world of problems. It's not a major problem but shit gets out of control when fallen into the wrong hands. Again, people create lies now with absolutely no control whatsoever.

People also have stopped having fun and just taking it all as humor.

unpredictability

 I kinda like how the weather forecast is inaccurate these days. It keeps us on our toes. We don't know what's really gonna happen and we can't rely on forecasts. I like it. We just have to be more aware of our surroundings and environment.

On a different note, Shu and I had this discussion some weeks ago about AI and robots. He was telling me about a company that is developing a physical robot with AI assist mode that you can programme and curate to whatever you want it to be. I told him I liked the idea coz let's say, you are someone who's been married for so long and then, your spouse dies.......I am definitely not the type to go out there and try dating again just for company. I'd rather have a robot I've programmed to be whatever I want to keep me company.

Shu hates it coz it would ruin the memory of your spouse and it's just gonna be predictable. That's just the beauty of AI and robots. You programme it. You run the show. You don't like it, you can just reset it. I don't see it as a way to replace your spouse. It's more like just a way to keep you company without the hassle of having another human. People have too many needs and wants and is sometimes too complicated to put up with. Something that you can programme and reset is much more manageable. Besides, you just need something or someone to respond to you, not an actual person who is gonna replace someone you lost.

I know, Black Mirror shit.......

Speaking of humans being such a waste of time and money, we were recently talking about not having people who work just to get salary at the end of the month. They won't progress and they won't do their jobs properly despite having signed a contract. Hell, they won't even give it a 100% when they are at work and you definitely cannot expect them to give a 110% at any time. They don't give a shit about you and your company. They just know that they're gonna get their salary at the end of the month. It's a huge failed system. They need to be paid very minimal and everything else that they earn is based on commissions. That way, they will strive to do better.

Of course, you won't have such problems with robots and AI. They would do as they are programmed unless they are corrupt and not function properly anymore.

I am so done living a life whereby I'm paying so much for services I never get. It's just a fucking rip off and scam. I refuse to spend money on shit I ain't getting.
