Very mature and realistic take on AI that avoid the Morgoth/Uncle Ted doom and gloom and transhuman Reddit retarded optimism. Very very well put.
As for distribution. It seems to me we need magazines more than anything. Filtering the slop is becoming a necessity once again as when magazines were useful.
This is a fine series. AI will remove the barrier to entry for creators. On balance, this is a good thing. It all seems very good, but I would hope that the best creators retain genuine actors. Having AI generate extras and those that would play minor roles will not be a bad thing.
You’re missing quantity. The new method of control will be quantity of media, the powerful will not ban speech, they’ll drown it in slop. There’s going to be so much media, discourse will be impossible and addiction will almost paralyse society. It’s going to be a trip.
Can't wait to see your work. There is something very special about the creative energy from the peoples of Britain. There is a magic there, in the land and in the people. AI is only a reflective mirror, let's use it to reflect the magic.
Another great essay on a very timely topic. I have nothing particularly clever to add besides mentioning my own negative feeling towards the AI characters in video advertisements. There's something "uncanny" about the AI "humans" that they show telling me stuff like they were a real "influencer." I'd much prefer if they just had an AI voice over, or perhaps an animated character for showing someone doing the talking.
In the extremely olden days in the theatre an ocean would be represented by gaffers or grippers or whatever you call them waving blue sheets on the stage. It was NOT about the technical realism, it was all about the story.
When I was very young I used to watch Captain Kangaroo on tv read "Curious George" books while he showed the illustrations that came with the books. My memory of it was that "Curious George" was a fully animated cartoon and not just a few pictures. It wasn't until I was old that I found out there were no "Curious George" cartoons until much later.
