Let’s be happy it doesn’t have access to nuclear weapons at the moment.

I’m still really struggling to see an actual formidable use case for AI outside of computation and aiding in scientific research. Stop being lazy and write stuff. Why are we trying to give up everything that makes us human by offloading it to a machine?

Because we don't enjoy actually doing it. No one who likes writing is asking chat gpt to write for them. It's people who don't want to write but are required to for whatever reason. Humans will always try to come up with a way to not have to do the work they don't want to but still get it done, even if it's not as good. Using tools like this is very human.

I really don’t see any value in AI art. AI pictures look like slop, AI music sounds soulless, AI writing I guess can be fine but usually sounds weird.

I just don’t see the value in AI because to me, every use case scenario for anything artistic is justified with a capitalist excuse.

I’ll give you the organizational ones, that’s understandable and not a bad reason. I suppose I have trouble getting behind taking the soul out of creating something just to slap it on an ad or product to sell something.

IMO the only problem with it is calling it "Art". Stock photos are also slop, except man-made. That, or the soulless corporate-style illustrations in PowerPoints are the sort of thing it replaces well.

Not the "I poured my feelings onto a canvas/film" actual art. AI images are in my opinion a tool just as valid as the next - just a tool, not art.
