I think we're more or less saying the same thing too...

AI being used to replace the artistry of humans is like building robots to experience paradise for us, or "do the chore" of having sex with our wives for us. It's innately perverse, in my view. Heh.

But, using AI to remove many of the limitations from human artistic vision? That's a totally different ball game, and I suspect it will be more popular.

On the flip side, I plan to invest in my hand skills. Many woodworkers try to not use machinery because it takes away from the aesthetic of the craft.

Likewise, I value that sort of innate human hand effect quite a bit, so I'm investing in my skillsets in order to be able to carry that sort of thing out.

Yes, I think AI and automation is a good thing that will lead us to the singularity, I just hope for an UBI so nobody is left behind once GPT-4 starts doing a lot of intellectual jobs.

You might be interested in this interview where an artist interviews an AI researcher.

While I'm expanding my "luddite" skills, I plan to equally develop a command over actually interfacing with AI. I think this will be a huge skill in itself.
