There are new jobs to come. Look at the popular chatbot subs. See what different people do with AI. And you will see that there will be jobs for people who understand how AI works, as many people just don’t. So you won’t have AI making blockbusters, you will have whole teams of AI, engineers, actors, artists, musicians and AI whisperers making blockbusters.

I think our brain is a pretty powerful neural network. Why should we stop using it additionally to the AI? It’s actually not even more expensive, if you think that AI running on a server needs “food” (electricity, resources for repairs of hardware etc.) and “medical care” (programmer and engineer diagnostics in case of malfunction).

Edit: forgot something important. What you describe - people without real artistic skill making art - already happened in the 2000s. I used to already earn money as a school kid, doing all kinds of art jobs in my small suburban town, as I was one of the three best and most promising young artists in that silly sweet little suburbia. But alas, we were already globalised enough, and young stupid me was not happy with staying at home and making Jesus pictures for local churches. I wanted to learn, to develop my skill - and applied to several art universities. I was rejected everywhere. “We don’t need skill, we have digitalisation for that - what we need is new original ideas” was the reason. In the effing 2000s (yeah me old). So don’t worry. Art IS already made by “morons”. “Morons” with ideas - those ideas that will make you, me and others seeing this art happy and lift our souls up.

Wrong. Stable Diffusion can produce thousands of dollars worth of images in a single day on a modern PC (which is obviously cheaper overall). Similar for text models and other tasks

Yeah, and how many of those images will a gallery manager want to hang in their marble halls? How many of those images can be used to wash money through donations of overpriced goods? AI art will stay worth nothing if it can be made cheaply. Art has long since lost its actual worth, its a money washing machine for rich people and those pieces of art sold for millions are often just a turd thrown on paper. Buyer, artist, gallery manager and museum as well as the buyers bank and the financial ministry of the country where the “avoiding taxes through pseudo-charity” happens are all involved and know.

Don’t worry, I can draw and paint your ten images a day in the quality of most modern artists. Is not a joke. Just give me the PROMPTS. I have no original ideas whatsoever. I am like the famous Austrian ruler who wanted to become an artist but was nothing but an artisan considering painting and drawing. I could copy every Banksy for you except the shredded one. Believe me, the quality will be amazing, but no museum will ever buy any of this.

Art has been an illusion for a long time now.

I would LOVE for AI to shatter this corrupt society of “art”.

AI will create jobs and ways to springboard new things that we cant even comprehend I think. One area I would like to focus on in the near future is AI based permaculture that decentralizes our food system in local communities.

Only jobs I can see is random grunt work. If it were necessary with creativity or intellect, why not just let an AI do it?
